Mein Neffe hat einen Gecko bestellt und heute bekommt er ihn. Gedruckt habe ich ihn aus flexiblem TPU (85A) und in die Unterseite 4 Magneten eingeklebt, damit er zumindest ein bissl geckohaft am Kühlschrank kleben kann. 😉
Durch das TPU ist er auch nahezu unkaputtbar. Bin vor 4 Wochen zum Testen mit dem Auto über ein Benchy gefahren... Sieht aus wie davor, nur dreckig. 😄😄
My 3d printer has a special spot for a raspi to be added on.
Anyone have alternatives to suggest?

Prusa’s Official Enclosure Pulls Out All the Stops
It's well known in the desktop 3D printing world that you get what you pay for. If you want to spend under $300 USD, you get a Creality Ender 3 and deal with its slightly half-baked nature. Or if you've got the money to burn, you buy a Prusa i3 MK3 and know that you'll remain on the cutting edge thanks to a constantly evolving slicer and regular hardware revisions.
Now it stands to reason that an expensive product will have expensive accessories, but even still, the recently unveiled "Original Prusa Enclosure" is sure to induce a bit of sticker shock in even the most argent of [Josef Průša]'s fans -- the most bare-bones configuration of the 10 kg (22 lbs) box rings up at $349 USD. You read that right, just the enclosure for Prusa's flagship machine costs more than the average Chinese 3D printer. In fact it costs as much as the kit version of the Prusa Mini, which incidentally, is set to get its own version of the enclosure sometime in the future. If you select all the bells and whistles, a fully-decked out Prusa Enclosure will cost you $700 USD, plus shipping.
So what do you get for your money? Well, for the most part it's just a box. We're sure it's very well built, and the design is perfectly matched to the dimensions of the Prusa i3 MK3, but it's literally just a box. There's an integrated temperature and humidity display, but the printer itself is responsible for heating the chamber. We like that you can move the printer's control panel to the outside of the box so you won't have to open the doors as often, though at that point the printer and enclosure will have been merged into one heavy-weight unit, which obviously hinders transportability. The air filtration system is likely to be a popular add-on for $76, but our interest in the fire suppression system is hampered by the fact that (at least for now) it's only available to customers in the European Union.
In the blog post announcing the product's release, [Josef] explains that there's already an excellent low-cost enclosure solution for the i3 MK3 based on the IKEA Lack table, so the company decided to go all in and design something for the higher end of the market. Will the average i3 owner fork out the cash for the matching enclosure? We doubt it. But for the tech startup that's running a small farm that they want to be as safe and reliable as possible? That's a different story.

A few days ago I posted the first thing I designed and 3d printed, all by myself. A few days ago we installed it. It’s part of the joystick of @cbayerlein@instagram.com . It turned out great and works. #3dprinted #prusai3mk3 @josefprusa@instagram.com

My weekend distraction: recreating Tintin’s XM-2 moon rocket. #prusai3mk3
When I’ve spoken to people who aren’t in tech and told them I bought a 3D printer, their first question is always “Why? What are you going to make?”
Well, if the clamp for attaching one of your Christmas presents doesn’t fit your desk… you can fix that. #prusai3mk3
First 3D printing project complete: an organizer/dispenser for my hex stickers. #prusai3mk3
Success! Lesson learned: always download GCode to the SD card; don’t try and push over USB.
So; my first fully self-modeled, self-printed object - a box with a screw lid! #prusai3mk3
A milestone… of sorts. First failed #prusai3mk3 print (“crash detected”)
Here’s a real test: can a #prusai3mk3 print to Lego-compatible tolerances? It appears so!
Tonight’s #prusai3mk3 experiment: the @makersmuse@twitter.com tolerance test. 0.2mm released without difficulty; 0.15mm seized.
And that’s it! Build took a little over 10 hours. My first “interesting” model will take another 90mins, I’ve got feedback I’ll feed into the build instructions (gotta love Open Source projects!), but for now… it’s celebratory beer time! #prusai3mk3
Nope. Problem with the Z-axis. I ran the cable the wrong way, so there wasn’t enough length. Let’s fix that and try again. #prusai3mk3
Hrm… but calibration was aborted. Let’s try that again. #prusai3mk3
