Oh, I'm a-doin' it.
This part is actually slightly outside the "safe print zone" dashed lines on my build plate. I put down like half a can of hairspray on it right before the nozzle descended. Wish me luck.
Good luck
Is this a 2d printer next to the 3D one?
Yeah, I keep all my printers in one place.
Well, except for the laser engraver. I guess you could consider that a "printer."
An engraver is more of a "remover" though
Hope you did enough bottom wall layers. The big tray looks like it could be a bit flimsy.
Three all around. This is not meant to bear any weight. It's a work tray for fiddling around with knives and other small assemblies wherein I'm tired of having screws roll away and having to chase them on the carpet.
Poor a little silicone in afterwards for a soft, squishy bottom that will make grabbing small parts easier.
Good luck and let us know how it went.
As long as the borders are printing you should be golden. Not something you'd want to to often of course, depending on the printer, since you might strain the hardware at the extreme edges
