Been working with a 3d modeller now I can 3d print and I've started on my Shirley Bingham rockets for my wheelchair! Super excited for my first prototype that isn't out of duct tape!

Flashforge Adventure 5m. Under $350 AUD. The lightest printer I've ever owned This printer has brought back my ability to do the hobby I love. I dont have to ask anyone anymore because I can do it myself! I had lost hope I could print again, not anymore! 4/4

Stay tuned for all the printing 😆

"Find me a printer that will work for you" i shrugged and told her I doubted one could fix all the issues I needed. "Find it, don't worry about the price" Much to my surprise I found one that covered everything. No levelling, no putting together, the easiest nozzle changes! 3/4

And at the time, it cost $1000s to get a printer that did that for you. But it never solved the issues of nozzle changes. I gave up 3d printing because it didn't feel accessible to me anymore. Enter Christmas 2024 where mum dropped a laptop in my lap and said 2/4

I love 3D printing, its been a hobby of mine for the better part of 7 years. The past year and a half my disability changed the way I use my hands and arms and essentially robbed me of my ability to 3d print. I couldn't level beds, I couldn't fix things if they broke. 1/4
