EVA foam vs 3D printed parts?

EVA foam is miles easier to work with vs 3D printed. However you have to handmade every part with foam, unlike a printer. I use a 3D printer for my mandalorian WIP both armour and props, every piece of armor has been downloaded, sized and printed in my bedroom (Elegoo Neptune 4 plus). The advantages

New to 3d printing and shopping around

Despite what others may say, the Elegoo brand was made as a functional and affordable brand to get you a product that isn't overly expensive but it also isn't made to be a "Premium" printer. Parts wear out, maintenance is required, and the manufacturer stands by their products in many times even pas

Best 3d printer for making props

I have an elegoo neptune 4 plus. It's a larger size and pretty cheap. Not plug and play like a bambu would be. There is some assembly and calibrating before you're ready to go. It can be a bit frustrating. With that said, mine has over 2500 hours on it. I've printed 2 life size droids and am current

Looking for some advice on settings for supports

Hey u/digitalhick - Fellow Neptune 4 plus owner and prop maker here Your prints look great - if its only the supports that are failing try these couple of suggestions: - Slow the movement/ traverse speed of your print head. The quick jerks and movement will shake the bed and cause potential stringin
