testing some ABS from 3D Universe - worked great! These are printed on an Ultimaker 2+ Extended in ABS, 0.1mm layer height and a 0.4mm nozzle.
The light in my living room broke when I switched it on tonight. So, after changing the light bulb, I took this macro shot of the dead one.
More playing with the new 2.5X barlow and i love the thing.
Not bad conditions for this one was quite happy but i had some anoying problems getting the background even so gave up haha !
This small accessory can protect your FFF 3D printer filament from two common issues - cleaning and lubrication.
A sponge wipes the filament clean from any dust particles and prevents them clogging the extruder.
By dropping a few drops of common mineral oil on the sponge the filament passing through gets lubricated thus relieving the extruder motor from strain.
Lubrication is specially useful if the filament needs to travel through long tubes before it enters the extruder.
INSTRUCTIONS
Download the STL-file from www.thingiverse.com/thing:492067
3D-print the provided STL file and insert a small piece sponge into the filament filter.
Poke a hole into the sponge and make sure the filament passes through and comes out at the other end.
Soak the sponge with a few drops of mineral oil (as for sewing machines, door hinges or bicycle chains).
Place the filament filter somewhere in between the spool and the extruder. If you have a plastic tube which guides the filament to extruder (such as a bowden solution) make sure you place the filter before the filament enters the tube.

Enormous Solar Prominence captured by STEREO Spacecraft
The twin STEREO spacecraft (called “Behind” and “Ahead” denoting their relative positions in space), now almost 120 degrees apart, captured this large and dramatic prominence eruption over about a 30-hour period between Sept. 26-27, 2009. Prominences, called filaments when they are viewed against the surface of the Sun, are clouds of cooler gas suspended above the Sun’s surface by magnetic forces. This erupting prominence was large enough that both spacecraft were able to observe it for hours on end, one of the first times that has occurred.
From the Behind perspective (on left) the long filament, darker than the Sun’s surface, can be seen rising up and then breaking away, spreading out above most of the Sun’s surface. As seen from the Ahead spacecraft (right), the filament is seen in profile and is therefore called a prominence. The very large cloud lifts up, breaks away, and heads out into space. This is one of the most spectacular eruptive prominences STEREO has observed.

I didn't really know where this was going when I started this one today. I had some different ideas but I was using my fluorescent light as a light source and it has a split bulb which created these two reflections on the bottle.
I think it looks kind of like a lightbulb like this.
What do you think?

I believe that the jam was caused by running the extruder too high for PLA or due to back pressure when printing too close to the build surface. Thanks to the great design of the MK5 it was no problem to unblock.
We took our popular LED filaments and put them inside LEGO lightsaber hilts. They're the brightest in the galaxy!
First ever go with a Lunt 35THa. Uploaded not because the photo is any good, but to see how much I improve as I try to get my head around this. In spite of the clouds...
