Oh right, I get you. I didn’t realise you could get printers that used more than one colour of filament at a time. Nice

I am having no joy whatsoever getting my printer to print anything. I'm wondering if the filament is just too old, as I bought it second hand. Maybe it degrades over time or something, but it's just not getting pushed out of the extruder/nozzle reliably.
Had to replace the bowden tube because the one that was on it when I got it had filament inside it and it wasn't possible to extrude it out or push it out manually without it breaking, so it got clogged up completely.

Fun times.

Filament takes in moisture, especially PETG. You can buy specific dryers, or even just leave it on a warm radiator for a bit

Here's my next print. A little box that turns bog roll into a tissue dispenser.

Let’s get one thing straight: you’ve been lied to. Hoodwinked. Utterly bamboozled by Big Tissue™. They have convinced you that dainty, over-packaged, mark-up-laden “facial tissues” are the only way to gently pat your pweshus widdle nose. Do you know what those tissues really are? Toilet paper with delusions of grandeur.

That’s where this bourgeoisie-defying toilet paper tissue box comes in. The the tissue box of the revolution. The Revolutionaries' Tissue Box.

An under desk modular cable management system.

Not as neat as I want, but the desk motors are in the way.

A mixture of multi boards and ‘underware’

There is a ton of options out there

I like how that holds the power bricks and blocks and things - smart.

I am quite impressed...

How long did it take to print all that?

Hours and Hours.. I did a lot of the mulitboard. Fitted the large one and printed the smaller ones to fit round.

Printed the starter underwear pack. Then printed bits as i needed them

Ha... underware

I'll be honest, in the context of anything related to underwear, 'handsonkatie.com' is a link I'm going to check over my shoulder before clicking in the office.

It is purposefully done. Saying that I did not open on my works machine.
