I came away with some cool freebies from #SMRRF, including some very cute stickers from @layerswithlily.bsky.social and some #3dprinted chocolate from #CocoaPress. Plus I got some beautiful brown/purple filament from @3dqf.co.uk.web.brid.gy for a fiver! #3dprinting
Need some assistance with the cocoa press 2. I'm almost done assembling but the extruder is wobbly when I try to snap it into place. I've taken it apart and put it back together a bunch of times.

#TodaysMomentOfAwesome 6th grade Design Studio has started turning in their designs for the Admissions Office. They've been incorporating the new logo and making some impressive designs.
The prototypes should finish printing by Friday, we'll get feedback after then.

Big thanks to Cocoa Press for being a Blacksmith Sponsor at Maker Faire OC 2025! Their 3D chocolate printer fuses tech + taste, crafting custom confections layer by layer. Innovation never tasted so sweet!

#TodaysMomentOfAwesome Doing peer reviews of chocolate designs, students saw elements like simplicity, clarity, and readability in their designs. Our client came by, dropped in unexpectedly and was visibly impressed by early prototypes.
Now on to refining designs!

If you're wondering if you can print the mini saber in chocolate, yes, yes you can.

No idea why klipper and the screen were flipping out. Calibration screen was all wiggity wack.
I reloaded the image on the sd card, homed, calibrated, and am printing away.
#cocoapress
Well, after managing not to use the plunger cap and having to disassemble the entire extruder to clean out it out, I am now battling klipper errors while the nozzle grinds into the bed.
#cocoapress
Had to flip the x and y motors on the board. Not sure if A and B were mentioned in those documentation steps, but it is moving correctly now.
Also had to move the Z probe down as low as it will go.
Calibrated and now heating.

Looking up #bigtreetech hdmi5 docs, ks2 button on the back of the screen flips it horizontally
#cocoapress
Well it powered up, but I may have to print upsidedown positron style to read the screen.

Cleaned up the wiring and got the rest of the extruder assembled.
Now have to wait for the rest of the instructions to be completed.
Chapters 1-6 assembled
Chapter 8 assembled

A little progress last night on the extruder. Got stuck with too much wiring. Stopped to watch an episode of Andor.
#cocoapress
Well, gotta stop here cause that's where the install doc ends. (missing a few chapters.) Reported is discord and github.

A great weekend sharing #CocoaPress (@ellierose.me why no @ cocoapress?) to the fine people of #ABQ #NM with @mattstultz.bsky.social and @cjyohe.bsky.social. Matt and I got out of the venue 12 minutes after it closed leaving the display assembled until closing! It’s like we’ve done it before.
Today's Awesome Moment in Class: Final Prototype for Development Office project. Printed full scale in PLA+ the Ss can see how pieces fit together as a whole.
Last changes were made & We print the display this week #CocoaPress @ellierose.me @mattstultz.bsky.social

Today's Awesome Moment on Class: 6th Grade Chocolate Studio met our clients, The Development Office. The students were well prepared, creative, insightful, and really listened to what the clients are wanting.
I'm so proud of them. This could be next level.
