Adam Savage has partnered with We The Builders to create a giant, 6-foot tall statue of Rosie the Riveter at the first NOMCon this June. This statue will be made of over 2600 individually 3D printed parts, and we need your help to print them all!
This project is to celebrate Women and Non-Binary makers, and they are asking that all of the pieces are printed in shades of skin-tones. So pick up some skin-tone colored filament, and claim a part to print!
I hope you can join us in this amazing project. But be quick, they are asking all the parts be shipped by May 20th!

![This printer poops too much. Lets change that - Optimizing flush amounts on the Anycubic Kobra S1
Anycubic has released the Kobra S1 Combo, a 8-color multi-material Core-XY 3D printer that competes with the likes of the Bambu Labs P1S and the Prusa Core One.
I show my experiments with the S1s Flush Volume settings, and show how decreasing the flush volume and save wasted material and print time. I then show my optimum settings.

![The Best Enclosed 10W Laser Engraver for Under $600? Creality Falcon A1 Review
*** Use coupon code HE10 to get an additional 10% off store-wide! ***
The Creality Falcon A1 is a fully enclosed, Class 1 certified 10 watt diode laser engraver with a built-in camera, included air assist, and CoreXY motion system. And it arrives almost completely pre-assembled. In this review, I put it through a full month of testing across wood, leather, acrylic, slate, coated aluminum, and stainless steel. The cut speed results were the fastest Ive ever recorded from a 10 watt laser, topping out at 720 millimeters per minute through 3mm birch plywood in a single pass. I cover the laser module, focusing system, enclosure safety features, camera alignment, software options including Falcon Design Space and Lightburn, noise levels, and real-world material results. If youre looking for a safe, beginner-friendly laser engraver thats ready to go right out of the box, this one is worth a serious look.
