Non-Catastrophic 3D-Printed Cord Tensioner Failure While you might say "I told you so," I could reply that I'm just verifying the hypothesis that 3D-printed cord tensioners will inevitably fail. Novel use case #14.

Yes, my 3D-printed cord tensioner failed after just 3 months! www.techadjacent.io/p/non-catast...

Sure! Here is a prototype. The PCB goes between the motors on the front. More to come later hopefully!

To be fair, while this post wasn't sponsored by Prusa, it was part of a job I was working on for another company. So whether or not I paid for it is complicated πŸ˜†

Yeah, it's a lot of money, especially when you have Bambu as an option. OTOH, my understanding is that you have more control of your data with Prusa, and even if it's not open source per se, I do feel like it's a more open design if that makes sense.

Covering Autodesk University 2025 Event I got to cover the Autodesk–creator of AutoCAD, Fusion 360, Maya, etc–University 2025 trade show + MUCH more event. It was huge and a bit overwhelming.

I covered the Autodesk University 2025 trade show. TL;DR - lots of fun, but exhausting. Also AI and a rad drone: www.techadjacent.io/p/covering-a...

Business Tip #12:
When negotiating raises & contract prices, convert the dollar value to how many @Wendys biggie bags you could buy with the money and work from there.

Ultimately I agree with you

But I still don't think it's a healthy situation
