  • well it’s all reprap although prusa’a i3 design has been the foundation of bedslingers since it. I was there when the old magic was written and we were trying to find ways to print wires for motors haha.

    you don’t often have a car driving through your bedroom or whatever. I’m not saying you should put as much effort into filtering the exhaust from a 3d printer chamber as nation states should to removing car dependence. I’m saying if you’re spending 300 euros on a printer spend 10 on cleaning it’s pollutants.

    Or not, take whatever risks you like it’s your body.


  • Pretty much, also I’m pretty sure prusa are still all open hardware so you can do your own thing if you enjoy suffering.

    I will say you should probably not run a fdm machine in the same room as you without filtration. I would recommend enclosing them for myriad reasons, and in the enclosure run a fan that forces air through a filter and activated carbon. No reason to increase exposure to VOCs and microplastics.

    If you get a fdm that can dual material fiddly prints become a lot easier as you can use a support material you can dissolve off. That starts getting expensive.

    Also consider material running cost. Resin is expensive (but minis don’t use much), plastic is cheaper but not that much cheaper buying quality, adding in supports, and dealing with failed prints.





  • Similar idea

    I cooked the lentils till soft, then again till crumbly with chaat masala and other spices I had pre mixed that smelled right, + garlic and ginger, then mixed into a biscuit dough based on soy milk and oats.

    It was kinda fiddly, but the extra frying helps develop the spice flavours. I guess potato would work in place of flours to get a nice tacky dough.

    Idk if that’s enough to work from. Sorta based on umm kachori? but I can’t be bothered making pastries so they become biscuits.
