Teaching Tech | Can 3D printing upside down help reduce warping? @TeachingTech | Uploaded 3 years ago | Updated 2 days ago
JR from Makerspace Adelaide sent me a challenge: Test his theory that Nylon prints better upside with a draft shield. Intrigued, I took the plunge and present my findings in this video. Thanks to JR for the idea and his innovative thinking.

Let me know what you think about this idea and my results in the comment section.
