Love it! Thank you :)

[@Richie_]

Making a lithophane is easier than another way I saw on TH-cam. Thanks for the tip.

[@DesktopInventions]

You're welcome! This way is easier but not as many controls

[@jeffreyepiscopo]

What’s the light pink filament you used for the mesh fabric?

[@DesktopInventions]

It's Esun PLA filament and the color is Peach Pink

[@omertaprimal6913]

what is the tool you use to change your nozzle? I've been looking for something like that cuz rn I'm just using a wrench and it's not as easy or safe

[@DesktopInventions]

I usually just use a normal socket with a small adapter to fit the ratchet which works pretty well. Just be very careful with a ratchet you can easily overtighten and strip out or break something. They also make some specialized nozzle removal tools but I haven’t tried those.

[@omertaprimal6913]

@@DesktopInventions would you mind linking to what you mean?

[@Hotsparks66]

I use a socket on a short screwdriver type handle.

[@DesktopInventions]

If you’re going to buy a tool I would recommend one like this www.amazon.com/Printer-Cleaning-Wrench-L-Shaped-Hexagonal/dp/B09WTSZWG3

[@noktrnl123]

Yeah. Not hacks. Just settings and things you can buy. Maybe call it help for new learning. Far from a hack
