Can I salvage this? (lemmy.blahaj.zone)
submitted 2 weeks ago by Interstellar_1 to c/3dprinting@lemmy.world

The filament came out during a print and I don't know what layer it came out at. I've spent a lot of filament on this print, so is there any way to continue it?

Agree that the result won't be a perfect print, but I personally prefer this route over printing the other half, sanding the first half flat to account for a partial layer like you said, and then gluing.

I guess it comes down to what you goal is. 90% of my prints are functional and I don't really care if they're a bit ugly at times.
