Loving it! :)
Love it!
Hi :) I’ve been a member with you for a little over a month now and I really enjoy your designs :) can I ask you something? I saw your cactus jewelry dish on Facebook just now and it actually wasn’t yours, it is Polly Rocket.. can you tell me the difference between yours and there’s? I love your designs and you’re actually the only person I have a paid subscription with❣️ thanks🥰
Thank you! Polly Rocket is actually one of my subscribers :) she printed this cactus.
love this design! what you could have done to save on filament is is to merge both bottom trays that way it already has the countersunk hole. Or have the top tray not have a hole that completely goes through and only have a countersunk hole. it would save on glue and material.
i hope this made sense lol
Hi, thanks for the input! The components are currently separated so that magnets can be placed into the circular slots on the bottom plate, making the bottom tray magnetic.
you can achieve the same result on a single piece (and avoid using glue) by having the magnet slots embedded within the part and adding a filament pause/change in the slicer right before the first layer that closes the magnet slots. This way you will have a single, sturdier and easier to print piece that gets printed up until the slot for the magnet is ready, then the printer stops, you put the magnets in and resume, and the printer will cover the magnets embedding them within the print.
Something like this
Thank you for your input and suggestion! While I did consider this approach, I ultimately had to make a design choice. I believe most users would prefer not to pause their prints. Additionally, inserting large, strong magnets, even with glue, could cause them to accidentally dislodge and hit the nozzle, introducing another variable that might cause issues for users. Considering the potential for damage, I felt this design choice would be safer.
