Doing a little maintenance on one of my hobbies this morning. Picked up this resin 3D printer about a year ago. It’s been fun making miniatures for when the family and I play D&D.

Seeing how the @Yakster ‘s stand turns out.

I got my son a resin 3d printer he still has trouble with getting good prints. Any tips?

MrShrek

@Olekingcole It does take some getting to know your printer and resin setup. Thankfully there is tons of support via Facebook groups like “Resin 3D printers”. I posted pictures of what was going on and they nailed the fix right away. There are also lots of info on YouTube, Reddit and other pages.

If you want you can also PM me what’s going on and I can try to help.

I'm more into 2D printing. Occasionally, I will 1D print.

Your butt doesn't get cold from sitting down to pee in the snow?

Usually just wives.

Yakster

My Wife is a real sneakerhead. She's got a whole bedroom full of shoes.

silvermouse

My wife buys Crocs, I buy cigars. I don't ask her "don't you have enough Crocs?"

Some how my 7 year old son is into nikes already. I still wear the same shoes from middle school.

Some might consider it unwise to disclose to this group that you have tiny feet. These things can take on a life of their own around here.

I have actually worn a size 15 since 7th grade. I hit 6'4" at 12 years old and quit growing.

I'm was the biggest kid in grade school, unfortunately it all came to an end in junior high. I'm only about an inch shorter than I was then.

I'll never forget moving up to varsity ball in high school. I was huge in middle school ball, the first time I got hit by someone my own size stunned me.

I got given a couple packs of Pokémon cards for Christmas. I never had any when I was younger, so I've decided my midlife crisis will be collecting cardboard. It's been surprisingly fun to just open a few packs and go through with the family.

Funny how things go. I was one of the smaller, and the youngest one in Junior High. At the end of my Junior year in High School I was only 5'7". At the end of my Senior year, I was 6'1". As an adult most people look at me and assume I played football in H.S., or something like that. Nope. I'd have been smushed.

My hobby is making my wife happy, changes from day to day. Today it is dredging the congealed hair and toothpaste out of the bathroom sink drain. A very rewarding pita passtime.

Yakster

I'll have to do the shower drain soon. Double points for anticipating your wife's desires and being proactive.

Transforming microscopic grooves in PVC into electrical signals for the purpose of creating pressure waves that my eardrums can intercept and convert back to electrical signals that my brain perceives as sound and music. And, of course, spending time with you on the forum.

It'll be a big waste of time if you don't make her aware you're doing it.
