As a huge fan of shortcuts I highly recommend adding a keyboard shortcut to Import STL(imperial units). Please and thank you!

Hi Prusamates,

I had a further idea. Do you think It will be possible to get control of the prusa mini using a esp32 usb drive? or to control the printer by wifi usb thing.

will be awesome.. I think....Maybe I am wrong but. I thought wifi on the mini has not been implemented yet...

K.Regards

I did not reply to this forum thread since a while. I looked at what prusa did and implemented the cut with a snapfit possibility instead of the nipples or small snipplet. please change the bow tie junction (the dovetail cut) to a bowtie hexagonal version of it: the printability will be further improved. So I am very glad to see that what we suggested here were followed by the dev at some point... lthough we may have a co-evolution in theway one may think the future of 3d printer...

a further point:the change filament point>> I need to add a custom filament gcode: on the filament M104 S245 M600. I try to print tpu on pla. I know not the best way... I have found a way around without structural interdigitating the two materials... No I do not have a MMU or a multimaterial set up. I oad the filament manually....

another way could be to add in the gcode filament filament change in the height modifier part in order to force the use of a filament change and using a custom filament profile... Or you think that will kill the MMU selling.. I do not think so.

I am williing to buy one but sadly the mini is a bowden feedeed extruder.... therefore rthe first thing would be to get the possibility to get a simple extruder motor to mount on it like the one made for the easythreed ridiculous printer ( yes I own one as well)...which is at the moment is a 80 euros dust trap ... as some quality of the housing make it unusable...the motors are really lightweighted... the problem I cannot mount it and connect them directly above the extruder hot end... sorry for the disgressing side slip.

Best Regards,

Hi Prusamates. I come back with a feature request on printables.

I saw that the automatic cut tool do exactky what I proposed on an earlier post . I am glad to see that. however I would ad a point>>> stop doing round stuff use hexa based geometries instead. or give people the possibility to use their own snap fit form.

I came to this because we all know here the issue with round moves... so go for hexa straigth line it workd best.!

I am working o a way to have multiple filament print on a single object.

the problem i: I want to print each filament according to their own filament and print settings in prusa

please give the option when choosing change filament to use the right filament setting for each one!

because Now I am not sure this is correct...

I did that manually and this is far from perfect. I am asking myself: what if I do

the last one on the go. with little help.

It would be really cool if I could simulate a 3d print based off of the generated gcode. It basically already does this, but it would be cool if it could be ran in real time.

Hi there,

when I saw the last video aboutOriginal Prusa XL update on development and shipping schedule

dealing with a stuning helmert of iron ma with a lighting infill like support...called organic support there. I must applause it is almost what I proposed earlier!!!

cheers

because of the xy compensation and tolerances I have to set the scale of the cut tool to 1.15 times the size of the original designed part although it does work it is quite tedious and I am sure one can found better way of doing that. again I knowPSE is not a cad software but it shows very interesting features that one can use at his advantage this was all about it. So can we make a snapfit feature to integrate it to a part in PSE from what I did yes it is possible. It is tedious but you can get it working. th

however I needed to adapt the size of the pad part ... it needed some scaling to get it right. this is always a problem achieving the right dimension to achieve the snapfit.

here a succesful example print using my guess design...As said I was not guessing I did already use it in another design (and printed there) so I know it works. and the gcode view was clear enough. however I needed to adapt the size of the pad part ... it needed some scaling to get it right. this is always a problem achieving the right dimension to achieve the snapfit. I think I can work out several snapfit design to be added to your shapes repository for the same purpose. on the left to part male and female on the right the connected parts

Please test print *before* posting, don't guess.

Cheerio,
