Hey, I just saw someone post desktop bg of this on a different community.

Plasticity is a pretty cool application that’s growing pretty quickly and offers perpetual licenses, so you retain access to the program once your maintenance period expires. I think it has a ton of potential to become very useful for the 3d printing space that doesn’t necessarily require the full power of a pure CAD application but needs more than something purely art-focused like 3d modeling software.
One of the greatest things is the dev takes a lot of input from the community when deciding what features are added. There’s a whole website for suggesting and voting on features to be added and several of them have already been put into development and implemented already. And on top of all that it’s, comparatively, affordable. I’m still learning it so I don’t know the full limitations of it’s usefulness for 3d printing but to me it seems very capable.
I wasn’t expecting plain PLA! Are there any issues with warping due to heat from the motor?
NSFW images being blurred by default helps with that, though that might be browsing platform specific. It’s a little inconvenient but it does help avoid getting gore unexpectedly shoved in your face since you can usually judge by the community or post title what it might be.
I was going to say this. Please don’t support civet coffee. It’s an industry that does deserve to collapse.
Small world!
