10 hour print. Not sure about the final yellow, they look more like Ninja Turtles!

Wow 10 hours...£1.99 and takes many pens
You can't buy one like mine anywhere though. Strictly limited edition, only two of this design exist anywhere in the world.
I may consider offers in excess of £50 from a wise investor.

Ive turned 1kg of PETG into some stands for a small solar panel.
To go on the newly built shed roof.
I printed these stands so I dont need to screw into the rubber roof.
You just place paving bricks 100x200mm into them to add the weight.
I used ERYONE filament which seems better than the esun Ive been using. I also used a 0.8mm nozzle to speed the prints up.
Each print went from almost 2 days to about 10 hours.

I must say the pen came out particularly well!

My lad would print a PLA phone holder and borrow SWMBO's car. He'd park up and take his phone but forget about the holder that would have sagged by the time he came back. His solution was to print another one everytime he went out!
He doesn't go out much.

I'm unable to print at the moment. I went to start a print but stumbled due to my Vertigo. My finger went straight into the cooling fan and broke a blade off. It then started to buzz so decided to stop it with my finger to see how much damage there was. Yes I know! Fan is now totally stuffed and I have to wait for some more to be delivered. I had to buy four so I will be thinking of something to build that needs three fans and numerous bearing races, to use up some of my excess stock.

If I were you I would keep em on hand as when things go wrong and you're sticking your fingers in there they have a tendency to snap off the fins.
On my anet I broke loads of fans poking around the hot end with a screwdriver

Yep that's it and a marking gauge if it had a pencil / pencil lead instead of a pin.

Smell of burning plastic last night coming from my lad's Anycubic i3 Mega S. Lad has just sent me this photo.
Could it be just a loose screw and this a point of high resistance?
Long term vibration maybe?
Apparently the black and red are to the heated bed which now isn't heating.
A common 'ish fault with this type of printer from a bit of googling it seems?
