Welp, it ain't perfect but it's not nothing.

Kids bumped the table a few dozen times times during the 5 hr print probably didn't help.
They were so stoked watching the process and seeing the finished product so that's what matters.

This was just the Ender 3 test Cat. That was already loaded on the card.
Settings I think was 200 degrees gun and 60 bed?

Next up is a Unicorn and a Fish per my daughter's request.

You should check out this site! This guy has some cool 1/24 RC crawler bodies that are a free download.

I've printed out the Canyon Master and Kei truck so far. The Kei truck turned out really good, I can't wait to build it out.

BROTHHEEERRRR! YES! I want to buy a real life one of those. haha... Thanks for sharing. looking forward to printing one of these bad boys!
 
So I printed the Kei truck twice because my friend wanted one as well. First cab I used a raft and it took about 7.5 hrs. The second cab I did without a raft and it was 6.5 hrs. I did the two beds together with no raft and that was right around 12 hrs
 
I have had an Ender 3 for a few years now. It takes a little bit of tweaking once in a while but has been fairly good for me. I did build an enclosure for it that enabled me to print PETG and help PLA run even better. The magnetic PEI bed is money, never had a problem with adhesion.

I have built quite a few things but the plasma table was probably the biggest.

And so many RC car parts. SCX24 wheels, tube chassis, IFS kit, bumpers, and so much more.

SXC24 chase truck based off 1/18 scale Big Country chevy. All new chassis, bumpers, utility bed, and roof rack.

Sandrail that I may finish someday. Trailing arms and front sand style arms.

I have had a Flashforge Adventure 3 Lite for about 4 or 5 years now, thinking I'd find all sorts of uses. Truthfully, aside from small gifts and random chachkis, I haven't found much to print with it. The print area is fairly small (6x6x6"), but it is truly plug and play. I have never pulled it apart or replaced any components. PLA print quality is nearly perfect, and ABS prints well. I haven't had much luck with PETG, but I don't have a filament drier. The only things of real use I have printed are screwdriver dividers for the toolbox, a jig for pie cutting 3" stainless pipe for my intake, and a tube notching contour gauge (I'm excited about this one), and a trans temp gauge pod for my oem 4x4 button location.

anyone want to 3d print me a gas cap cover for my 2011 f150... bonus points if you put a CD logo in it...

Ship one to me and I can 3D scan/reverse engineer it. I could probably get the manufacturing class here at work print it out with some fuel resistant filament.

Edit: ABS is fuel resistant. I could print it myself

I assume his is the same stlye as mine. "easy fuel" fill. They are a capless system. Ive seen new bronco guys make some but theirs are a different style.
