Watch out for something big to appear on tomorrow!👀 4 months ago I presented the team with an idea, the project got green lit and I've been working on it ever since. Super excited to show it to the world!

Emergency call from my dentist, 5PM. One teeth model was not delivered, patient is scheduled for tomorrow morning. “Alright, send me the STL.” Quick edit in Blender, slice it and start the SL1S SPEED. 1h later, done! (0.05 layer), ready for pickup :)
Blender played a key role in the making of the Original Prusa XL reveal video. Make a clear visualization of a feature and everyone immediately understands it. It's crazy that the best tool for the job (for me) is free open-source software.🧡

tip!📝Use the AUTOMATIC SUPPORT PAINTING button! It is hella smart. It takes into account the center of mass, weight of the supported part, bed adhesion, material, bridging, even the bed movement!

PrusaConnect with the MK4 in action. File sent directly from PrusaSlicer. 10-yo smartphone used as a webcam. Many features and UI changes are still in the pipeline, but it's already quite functional.
@Prusa3D
Official 3D printable replacement parts, accessories, and fan models? We're excited to announce that we've partnered with some of the biggest names in various industries to make this a reality!🎉

They will not get any rewards. We manually check every request for a voucher of every profile. It's our endless fight with people trying to game the system. We can detect even fairly sophisticated cheats like VPN bots. The ban hammer never sleeps. 🔨
Assembled another Original Prusa Enclosure pre-production unit today. Nice to see the little improvements the team is doing. Testing different manuals, tools to include, printed parts tolerances... Our offices are now swarmed with Enclosures 😅💪
Joining everyone sharing pictures from
@OpenSauceLive
- it was so good! It's hard to believe this was the first year,
@WilliamOsman
and the team must be wizards. Or robots. Wizard robots?!🤖 So many of my favorite people in one place plus epic booths and talks!🧡
I'm sorry, but this is hilarious. A user on tried to farm likes&downloads and clearly, he used Formula 1 drivers for the name generation.🤣
@F1
We did ban him and deleted all the accounts, funny guy though. :)
Our favorite prank in the office recently - with a completely full spool of Prusament PETG Tungsten 75%, which weights about 5 kg, act like it's a normal spool and hand it over to someone. 🤣 Watching their arms go down and the shock in the face doesn't get old.
We are delighted to introduce highly specialized Prusament PETG Tungsten 75%, designed mainly for radiation shielding purposes.
Read also an article on our blog describing the material in more detail.
I find it pretty difficult to take good pictures of ironing. It's so easy to see in person, not so much on a picture.
These two are probably the ones I'll use for the documentation.

My Prusacaster video has just surpassed 1 million views.🤯
Never ever have I imagined this is where it will be today when I started working it. And no, seeing pictures of it in the wild doesn't get old!🧡
I love seeing all the makes of my guitar design popping up on Printables, so many great color choices.🧡 Makes me so happy when the makers are also happy with the result! Makes on the pictures by Kobi, Jouf, Mykel and 3dptrk.
This is getting out hand. Now there are two of them!
Was just taking pictures of a second Prusament pastel color that we released :) Love these!

Every night stuff gets stolen from our booth at
@formnext_expo
. Models, filaments... even RedBulls from the mini fridge. Booths around us also reporting this.😞 Someone tried to steal a full size R2-D2 from nearby booth, but it was found broken on the way to the exit.
@Prusa3D
XL users, have you seen the new pre-print screen yet? :) If you've changed your spool setup after slicing the file, you can remap colors, setup spool-join, reload different materials... I think the UX/UI could use some love, but it's an awesome feature to have.
@Prusa3D
This is huge. Everyone who models in CAD can basically skip exporting and sharing STL files. Simply slice the STEP directly. And when you upload it to
@printablescom
also use STEP and it will be much easier for others to customize.
PrusaSlicer 2.5.0-beta1 is out - adding support for STEP files! We use the Open CASCADE Technology development platform to read and tessellate the STEP files. It is a CAD kernel also used e.g. by
@FreeCADNews
or
@kicad_pcb
. Give it a try!
I made my first Štrůdl! I love this traditional Czech/Austrian/German apple pie, but so far, I was only good at eating it.😅 For a first try, I call this great success!🥧
All parts fit on the MK3, no support rods inside needed, around 100$ to build. And the intonation and string action - it should all be nearly perfect. Should I make and article & video about it?

I fully expect someone to find out in a test that this shape is somehow genuinely better for extrusion systems and then a huge community push to switch all filament production to hexagonal shape. 😅

It's genuinely sad to read replies like this. They would not have a printer if they didn't use a decade of work of others. They violated the license and when they got called out, they complied in the shittiest way possible. And you are clearly completely fine with that.
You know good thing were about to happen when even the British weather decided to cooperate. :) I hope Sanjay is grinning up there this whole event. 💛

I love how the product picture for Prusament PCCF turned out 🖤 The pulley is not the easiest model to work with, but I eventually convinced it to pose for me :D
Funny thing, the new Organic supports are just one of several major new features in PrusaSlicer 2.6. What do you think are the others? :) (one was already teased in PrusaLive)
Do you want to add the Star Trek Enterprise, the Rocinante, the Destiny, or the Teltak to your maker's den? Then check out Martin on
@printablescom
! He's an unsung hero for us sci-fi fans, absolutely amazing artist & down to earth guy!⤵
I don't even know where to begin with this one. It should really be at least 3 huge release articles, but all the new things are interconnected. So let me point out 2 things that did not make the heading - SVG SUPPORT & CANCEL OBJECT directly on the printer!
Update on Original Prusa XL shipping, Input Shaper alpha for the XL, release of PrusaSlicer 2.7 alpha, faster network transfers, new G-code format, and more!⤵
Awesome Infinity dodecahedron at Maker Faire Prague by Jakub Goga, had a quick chat with him at the booth, cool guy! He said "Oh yeah, of course, it's printed on a Prusa!" 😄

The Brands section on just got a new addition - Paramount Pictures! Official 3D printable models for the launch of the new Transformers movie, how incredible is that?! Thank you

"These testers did upload a handful of models to Printables, including a sparse few problematic ones, and even reported some of them to check the moderation procedures."
You guys can't be serious if you think this is ok.
Another awesome new PrusaSlicer 2.7 feature for MK4/XL/MINI owners? Plug in your printer's USB drive and Select "Configuration-WiFi Configuration File". A nice quick alternative to get the WiFi configured on your printer. :)

Mesh simplification - one of the new features in the upcoming PrusaSlicer 2.4. Really handy when printing high-res sculpts or 3D scans. You can also use it to create a Low-poly effect if you give the algorithm just a really small triangle budget😉
