Brittleness might be a concern, it will be for a costume piece

Thank you!


What is the recommended way to bond a resin-printed part to a PLA part?
I’m looking for some advice on how to bond a post-processed resin printed piece to a large PLA print. I assume my options are either superglue or maybe brushing resin onto the PLA, attaching the resin print, and hitting it with a UV light? Is there a better way? Thanks!

Used Airalo in the EU last year, only complaint was it took a few hours for the data to work reliably, but it was 100% after that. I’ve recommended it to everyone I know traveling.


I use Photopea all the time, I love it because the UI is almost an exact copy paste of PS, my only complaint is I wish they had a lifetime license to get rid of that side bar ad, the only options are all subscriptions/monthly. And I know the donate page literally says they don’t do subscriptions, but what else do you call a one time payment for 30 days of ad free?

Ad block works to block the ad, but I haven’t found a way to get that screen space back.


I saw someone else also suggest it, you could do an automatic fire extinguisher.

This one dispenses after 3-5 seconds of direct flame contact, others will be different.


Keep in mind that the sub count you see is the number of subscribers from your instance. I see 9.3k from my lemmy.world account, 250ish from my lemmy.ml account, and 300ish from my lemm.ee account.

Not sure how/where OP sees 12k though.


I have been working on costume parts, my process with split pieces is first assemble with painter’s tape to get a test fit, disassemble, super glue the pieces together with locktite gel control, sand with 80 and then 220 grit, paint with rustoleum 2-in-1 sandable filler, fill in gaps and seams with bondo glazing spot putty, sand the entire thing with 220, and then repeat paint-bondo-sand until I am happy with the surface before I move onto actually painting.

Basically this process.

If I don’t want to paint something, and don’t care too much about layer lines, I’ll usually use super glue and then a wood burner to melt the edges together. It isn’t the prettiest, but it works fine.
