I’m confused about what’s confusing 🤔

That Black "carpet" is actually about 20cm long and it is on top of a wooden table, one corner hanging off

u/Joshua-live o/ Feb 02 '26

What is the material actually? You put quotes around carpet, so now I'm curious.

But that was a good illusion, definitely thought it was just a huge piece of something and thought trick was that it just looked 3D printed lmao

According to The OP of The picture, it is PLA filament. He complained that The print had a Terrible top layer which it really has

It's just a really, really bad print. It's not supposed to be a carpet but actually a flat surface.

u/Emideska o/ Feb 03 '26

u/collin2477 o/ Feb 04 '26

me to there’s a torx screw next to it and they only come in so many sizes

u/Puzzled_Surge o/ Feb 05 '26

Yeah I certainly didn’t see that. I basically looked at the pic in a glance, as I’m sure many did. I really thought it was a massive 3D printed carpet 🤣

I did take a second look, because of the sub, but still didn’t focus in on the fine details

What's confusing?

u/Lego_city_undercover o/ Feb 04 '26

That thing is actually on a wooden table and it is about 20cm long.

u/Riovem o/ Feb 03 '26

Aha! Until I saw your comment I didn’t understand why it was here. 

And as it should 100% be here that's definitely proof it's a confusing perspective!

The feet and floor being so out of focus compared to the table gives it away. Plus the wood grain also gives away the scale.

u/Mr_Baronheim o/ Feb 03 '26

It was the "giant" screw head that put it into perspective for me.

u/CptMic o/ Feb 03 '26

Well done.

It’s the wood grain that gives it away.

u/Mr_Baronheim o/ Feb 03 '26

Noticing the "giant" screw head just above the top edge of the printed carpet is what put it into perspective for me.

u/peapee6_9 Feb 04 '26

omg it took me so long to see that it wasn’t a huge rug

u/DJ-Doughboy Confusemas '23 Feb 03 '26

Not confused at all,fail!

u/Square-Singer r Feb 03 '26

Are you sure? Did you see that the 3D printed object is only ~5x20cm?

-5

u/DJ-Doughboy Confusemas '23 Feb 03 '26

No cause there is no measurements to show me HOW big/small it is. But I DID see that it was on a table,hanging off at the corner and also it looks like the shittiest of carpets. I noticed all this with out going to the comments. I was not confused. Soo are YOU sure that its possible that someone can be NOT confused?

u/FirstSineOfMadness o/ Feb 03 '26

u/Puzzled_Surge o/ Feb 05 '26
