Topic: Printing Small for the Fun of it

For the fun of it, I just wanted to see how small I could print a simple object and still have it be recognizable. I got it fairly small, any smaller and it didn't keep it's shape as well.

hehe

I am sure it could do better if I had a custom hotend other then the stock SD2 one, but still I think it did pretty well.

E3D all the way! It's more than worth the time, money, and effort.
But that does look very nice. Did you have to slow down the feed/flow to make it?

Nope, I didn't slow it down.  I assume E3D is a hotend. I'll have to search it on the boards.
