I made this about a year ago and it’s one of my favorite creations. Even though I made a mistake in measuring the bottom and had to cut out some slots. One day I’ll print it again, but it used a ton of filament and took forever last time.
As the other commenter said, “not everything is about you”. I didn’t say YOU were saying that. It was a general comment about there always being people wanting to yell about microplastics and bacteria every time someone posts a 3d print anywhere near food related areas. I was just happy to see someone comment something I felt was more reasonable than the constant scolding you see in 3D printing communities usually. This is also why I didn’t reply to you directly. It’s perfectly reasonable to ask about safety and the other commenter already answered your question so I didn’t.
I also didn’t say I wasn’t worried about microplastics since it’s already a problem, but I DID say that I wasn’t worried about ingesting them from this print.
I see. Surely you can see how it can be interpreted as I did.
Honestly, not really. If you take into account the context that I wasn’t responding to your comment, but to the other person, and also knowing you weren’t doing what I was talking about, it seems pretty obvious to me that I wasn’t talking about you. You were asking a simple question, and you received an answer. I was praising another person’s comment. So I dunno, you’re entitled to your interpretation, of course, but I obviously wasn’t the only one that knew my comment wasn’t about you.
Questions safety of microplastics
Answers question on safety
Finally someone not questioning the safety!
I understand the point after you clarified it. You seem to be completely baffled that anyone would interpret it any differently.
