how much weight can that thing hold? I wonder if you could make a decent end table for supporting a reading lamp, or something. Maybe print the base as solid and flip it upside down?

How.... how long did that take to print??

[–] p1mrx@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Around 6 hours. The 120mm version was 1-2 hours.
