Those are a big hit in my household. Even my wife asked for one after I made some for the kids.

This was the first one I printed for him and he told me it was too small.
My wife told me she wants one but in different colors

resin?
I am thinking about getting one any recommendations?
It is not.
Oh it really looks like it how does it play?
What do you want to do with it? I’m very happy with my Bambu X1C but it’s very expensive. My coworkers recently grabbed an A1 and A1 mini and are both very happy.
After owning 4 different FDM printers I tried a resin printer and hated it. I used a grow tent to build an isolated cabinet with ventilation outdoors and it was still nasty. Hated having to wear massive protective gloves and stuff to mess with it, wearing a respirator while handling the resin etc.
I know some people roll without protective gear with resin printers but I have chronic health conditions and didn’t want to take risks.
Gave all my resin stuff away. I still sometimes make dnd minis on my fdm machines with a .15 or .25 mm nozzle though.

Does anyone have a file that uses Cabal guts?
Nope, designing one is on my long list of project ideas but nothing made yet.
Yall making me itch to pull my printer out. Just got to wait for grandpa to head home some time in the new year. Till then it’s in the garage and way too cold to fire up.

Cabal guts are neat. I’ve found FD stems are a bit smoother

A pyro x FD colab would be sick I bet Arthur or Alex would be willing to partner up if you have any neat ideas

Play testing my latest design iteration on the Pixie today. It’s subtle, but I straightened out the inner half of the gap. This is the first design change that deviates the Pixie from being basically the same shape as a Butterfly. The inner and outer diameters are unchanged. Because of the complexity on the face of the Pixie (the rim + fingerspin dimple specifically) the Pixie is printed face up where most yo-yos are printed face down. On my new, faster printer, the overhangs of this specific region, the inner half of the gap, were coming out just a tiny bit messier than I would have liked, even with some changes in print speed and layer height. This is my attempt to address this without drastically altering the Pixie design (like moving it to face down printing).
I’m going to play test this for a few days and if I like it, it will be the Pixie’s new shape going forward.

Printed this file I got from @TryCatchThrow. But it printed mostly hollow so it way light. Still learning the program may try to print it solid next but it actually plays pretty good as is
