I love all the comments about people being worried about microplastics, as if it’s not already impossible to avoid them. Don’t get me wrong, adding more and going out of your way to eat plastic ain’t great, but this is such a small scale fun little hobby!
You must have a massive printer to make those huge tubs though and that’s what I’m intrigued by
have I got some almond flavored cookies for you! careful though. eat too many and you might have early organ failure, one or two should be fine though 😉
What’s even crazier to me is those don’t even look like large walls! I don’t suppose you could transport them like that?
I used to make (considerably smaller) hanging plant pots and boy were they thick. I really didn’t want to have dirty rained down on me while watching TV haha. How well have yours held up?
The walls aren’t super thick but the guy who designed this thing did a great job. I pick them up all the time, I actually take them to the sink to water them instead of taking the water to them because it’s less messy.
Wow that’s crazy to me! (Am not quite as thin as I imagined) Appreciate the info and the link. Would love to hear how they’re doing in another 6 months to a year :).

This, the amount of potential plastic ingestion from using these pots is nothing.

It’s a decent size for sure but I am constantly finding bigger stuff that I want to print that doesn’t fit lol.
Elegoo Neptune 4 Pro by the way. It has been a great first printer but my next one will have a truly monster build plate.
