  • Really?

    I mean kids know ice cream is bad for them, at some level. But arguing who pays tariffs is like arguing whether water is wet. That’s what tariffs are, by definitions. Anybody who thinks China or whoever will pay tariffs in their place doesn’t know what tariffs are.

    That’s why it boggles the mind that Trump keeps - or at least kept - saying other countries would pay his tariffs and nobody ever corrected him: all it takes is opening a dictionary at TARIFF to know he’s full of shit.



  • The voids comme from the arachne perimeter generator - since that’s what the slicer uses in the letters, because they’re too small to contain anything but perimeters. You can even see them in the slicer’s rendition:

    There seems to be a way to eliminate then - in the slicer anyway - by increasing the perimeter transition threshold angle from 10° to 40°, but I haven’t tried it yet:

    One-wall looks better anyway, so I’ll try it again, without ironing this time.





  • I finally had time to look into this - in the slicer at least - and I think you’re right: one wall should solve the issue. I can tell just by how the slicer arranges things. I turned on ironing too for the topmost layer. That should make it even better.

    I’ll go to the office to start the print today. It takes about 5 hours - and 20 more minutes just for the ironing of that one surface 🙂 I’ll let you know how it goes.

    Thanks for the suggestion!
