My friend is having a 3D printer delivered to his work soon.

Suggestions for some simple objects he could make so he can familiarise himself with it?

a cube,,,,

[hectic]

I was thinking more along the lines of something that could be used. I suggested aglets.

OTOH, a Portal companion cube would be awesome.

Blimey, Hectic - first I had to google digital printer, and then aglets! 

[hectic]

Mme, perhaps you have a part for something that needs replacing and is hard to source? Needs to be a solid thing.

[Madame Buttonfly]

Mmm… I bet G could think of something... I find it a bit mind-boggling!

During my regular dental visit, my dentist (who happens to be my aunt) notices my wisdom teeth are starting to surface. So to ease the pressure and tension between my gums and molar, she decided to solder my the gums clean off.

And I watched the whole thing thanks to a strategical placed mirror.

I guess I'll be having my wisdom teeth extraction operation soon. Will try to provide pictures for that. Somehow..8)

One of the worst experiences of my life was having a dentist use a pair of pliers to wrench a wisdom tooth out of my mouth. Three of the four prongs were malformed and made a spiked ball at the end of the root, and yanked a fair amount of muscle out of my jaw

Took about an hour of yanking and pulling. Recovery took about a month, and fistfuls (no exaggeration) of painkillers since I found out the hard way I'm allergic to Vicodin

Second time, I went to an oral surgeon. Five minutes to take that sucker out (most of which was to let the lidocaine set in) and a week to recover.

@DougNg:

and yanked a fair amount of muscle out of my jaw

OUCH…that does not sound pleasant at all.

Luckily, I'll be under the hands of an orthopedic surgeon. Looking forward on being under laughing gas more than anything..

I haven't seen a dentist in 20 years but boy I can tell you I sure hope my wisdom teeth are there and don't need removing… 

And yeah: I know I should go for a check-up but I'm lazy... No sweets, no soda, no meat, brush 3x/ day and use mouthwater at least once/ day... Hoping that somehow does the trick

That… Was fantastic, yet another reason why I love this forum. Stuff gets posted here that I would never think to search out for myself.

Thanks for posting that Alex, my whole day has just become brighter
