Topic: Makeraser acetone print smoothing 'pen'
A new startup offers something called "The Makeraser". It's a handheld tool that can smooth your unattractive visibly-layered 3D prints into beautiful smooth objects.

Re: Makeraser acetone print smoothing 'pen'
Sounds like a job for a dried up felt tipped magic marker. Just dip it and/or soak it in acetone... kind of a neat idea.

look for the metal markers. the plastic ones may melt, like the plastics we are working with.
