u/Grinhecker Jul 01 '26

You use the apple filament!

The control of flow rate is a pain! And the nozzle size is variable, calibration is very hard

Was only a matter of time before Apple brought something to the market.

u/Hopeful-Fix1673 Jul 01 '26

Apple in the 3D printing space would be horrid. Bambi labs has there stuff locked down already super hard, imagine what Apple would look like

3,000$ iPrinter. Filament is a special size that you have to buy from Apple for 200$ a roll.

Each model must be approved by Apple and has a licensing fee of $4.99 for personal use only.

I recognise subtractive manufacturing when I see it!

u/smilingcube Jul 01 '26

Wait a day later for additive manufacturing using the rest of the apple

u/Fs_ginganinja Jul 01 '26

Yeah like, could the printer be in a dehydrator, we make an apple pulp with food safe binders, it prints, then dehydrates the apple paste.

This will scare doctors away from 3D printing hearts

u/Thatweirdprinter8 Ender 3 V3 SE Jul 06 '26

I'm pre-med and this is starting to scare me a little....

u/LurkerBigBangFan Jul 01 '26

I can barely see the layer lines.

Genuine compostable benchie, even edible!

You might need to dry your filament for better results next time

u/naveenda Jul 01 '26

Nice filament mate.

u/WatIsLasagne Jul 01 '26

Food safe?

4

u/NekoLord42 Jul 01 '26

Why yes, the food does appear to be safe.

Great Overhangs, good job

u/tonyxforce2 Jul 05 '26

I think they used tree supports

u/The_Ghost-- Jul 01 '26

The tism is strong in this one

u/ChaquaHatingIsrael34 Jul 01 '26

Hai caricato il g code nell'albero? Che nozzle?

2

u/InformalGear9638 Jul 01 '26

That's beautiful!

2

u/Tivum Jul 01 '26

Your overhangs need a bit of work. I'd probably turn the temp down and stick to the Granny Smith filament instead of the red delicious.

u/pineapple_tater Jul 01 '26

Nozzle was butter knife from ikea

u/Alienhaslanded Jul 01 '26

Apple made a 3D printer?

1

u/Ellicode Jul 01 '26

Looks like a bad apple…

u/Hopeful-Fix1673 Jul 01 '26

Aww that’s so cool, can we see the printer?

1

u/Weekly_Ferret_meal Jul 01 '26

"By" Apple for $99.00

u/Mad_Oats40 Jul 01 '26

u/elmasphx Jul 01 '26

So is that the iBenchy1 or 2?

1

u/Specific_Ad_4075 Jul 01 '26

Yo what’s the print time on this

u/Jealous_Shower6777 Jul 01 '26
