Breaking a 3D-printed part...or a fragile modular component. I'm not sure which causes more pain, but I've been there with both (thankfully, not at the same time)!

You got this, buddy! We'll see you Thursday!

the pain is real...as is the feeling of success

hang in there you can do it!

I think we own exactly the same 3d printer.

Nice and compact, good job! Just saw your HLH audition video on YouTube 'hack like heck' results must add to my playlist!

Soldering is a learned and practiced art. You need to keep your hand in it to keep your skill and proficiency high. Soldering can also require a very good soldering iron and a lot of extras (lighting, microscope, fluxes, etc.). 3D printing is a whole other thing, which I really need to get involved with to fully understand your pain.

Good luck with your Hack!

I feel your pain. I've been 3D printing parts all week, and near the end I broke a delicate piece before it was securely assembled. I am SO close to being done and it's starting to look really cool, but I'm worried about there being only one more day. It's going to take a lot of hard work and a little bit of good fortune.

Best of luck. I can't wait to see what everyone has built!
