So after noticing that removing prints from the bed was getting exceedingly more difficult, and pausing my octopus print while I was at work and shutting down the heaters successfully, I decided to print the colonel by Sculptor, shutting off the need heater after the 6th later. It looks my printer said"allow me to retort". I guess the small base size didn’t have enough adhesion considering the contraction of my aluminum bed. Very modern art
There’s 60 bucks down the drain
Yes another 1000 arm octopus!
More like 60 cents down the drain. I got the spoil on sale at proroparadigm for 35 buck a kg
We need to find a cheap way to recycle all those failed prints!!!
Give it to an art exhibition…they’d call it art 
Totally AWESOME Ramen maker ya got there…
So now it’s the octupus clearly hidden in a coral reef. 
@Kris_Schnell …and that way would be!!!
@Jason_Graf may it be Filastruder?
@Jiri_Pech Woah! That thing is awesome, I hadn’t even heard of it… and at a great price! Thanks!
@Jason_Graf you may consider use of a customized meat grinder to turn your failed prints to small pieces which can go through the Filastruder.
@Jiri_Pech I’ll keep that in mind… Most end up as strings of mangled junk, but every now and then their tied to a big piece of useless plastic
Spaghetti!!
@Antonio_Aguilera 60 bucks down the drain OR an exclusive milliondollar worth piece of modern art. xD
Filastruders are neat but not perfect by any means. You gotta use the same color filament through a new thread to keep consistency and even then it’s iffy/brittle. It’s neat though as you take all your ABS or PLA (keep em separated) in one, it kinda has this off color recycled tan look.
Every time you melt plastic it degrades. It was melted once to make it into filament, second time in your printer, third time in the filastruder and you’ll get garbage.
I’m curious to see how the Filabots go when they get into customer hands. A few reviews will be all I need to make a decision.
@Simon_Villalobos
I was thinking of setting up a 2nd extruder on my delta printer just to squirt out recycled/crappy filament. Who needs good looking infills afterall?
@Kris_Schnell once you melt and remelt plastic, it’s melting point will start to vary wildly. So even you manage to force ground up prints into something that looks like filament, it will most likely jam in your hotend.
