• Installed bambu studio for the 3d printer (RC has an A1 Series)
• Installed blender but didn’t figure out how to use it
• Elijah helped me with the printer and sent me a design
• We tried to print a few different versions of a trivet but had a few issues:
  • The device didn’t stick to the plate, it popped off and the filament was dragging it around: we added a brim and cleaned the plate
  • Subsequent attempt worked
  • Tried again with a larger size but at one point the nozzle knocked it off the base :(
    • Tried again a bit smaller with a different filament temperature (generic PLA instead of the bambu PLA which seemed to work a bit better)
