How long until we have a chocolate 3d printer made from chocolate 3d printer parts? 😂 So good, and Ellie is a genius for designing it!

[@mr_voron]

Well, I've printed a VORON part on it. Does that count? 🤣

Actually, you can eat the parts off of a regular 3D printer, just rarely more than once. Seriously though, that printer looks like a lot of fun.

​@@UnnecessaryInventions Look up 'sugar 3d printer' and you'll find everything from homebrew setups that melt sugar with hot air or lasers to the CURRANT, a 3d printer that uses a bed of ultra-fine sugar and an inkjet head to produce full-colour 3d objects that are completely edible. Cheers!

[@BonMyFY]

$1500 and you have to supply the parts?! Absolutely unreal.

[@KamelzeI]

Thats what i thought! You could think its just because it has a too limiteded Target group, but if everyone just pritnts their own parts and uses almost all generic 3D printer parts, this doesent make sense!

[@Bedogg25]

I was thinking that too 😂 more expensive then alot of printers but you have to have one before you can use this, too new but nice idea that will surely get upgraded

Heres a question: could you reload your failed pieces back into the printer, melt them, and reuse them to mske a bew print?

[@Lantastical]

duh

[@zeke7100]

It's all just tempered chocolate, so yes, it'd be possible even if it's not explicitly stated.

[@TheCHRISCaPWN]

@@Lantastical I wouldn't say duh because it would be possible that the design requires a full cylinder, or if it isn't tempered it could be break or possibly other issues.

[@UnnecessaryInventions]

I'd think so - you can also break down some of the other cylinders of chocolate if it's not filling the printer tube as well.

[@zachm241]

​@@UnnecessaryInventionsif you can break down the chocolate cores, are you able to add other tempered chocolates? Asking because food allergies

[@SmithyScotland]

Each chocolate core is £4. Presumably you're locked in to buying the cores from them

[@harsheh]

can't you just print a mould 🧍

[@FatalRbx]

Or you make a mould with food safe resin or food safe silicone and just temper some chocolate and put it in there ;)

[@MrMoron-qn5rx]

Isnt it possible to just melt some chocolate into the core? And if that doesnt work, cant you 3d print a tube that you can use to cool your own cores in? The quality might be poorer, but nothing would stop you right?

[@3DPrintingNerd]

Nope, you can create your own cores and use whatever chocolate you want!

You should make an app for the unnecessary inventions card game, so you never run out of invention ideas, and people would be more likely to buy your product

[@mumiemonstret]

Since the melting temperature of chocolate is so low, I guess ambient temperature is very important to print speed? If you had a cool or even freezer room, like that fancy French restaurant you are imagining, maybe the print speed can be cranked up considerably?

[@EnthusedCarrot]

I work in the confection industry and do 3d printing for a hobby. Found this Intriguing but decided not to pursue building one. The "chocolate" cores aren't real chocolate because the unit can't properly temper but a printer that prints real chocolate should be possible but more expensive than this already not cheap project.

[@TheDaringPastry1313]

You could make a silicon mold of one of the chocolate tubes, melt your own chocolate, fill and throw it in the fridge. Then allow it to come to room temp before use so you don't have to buy refills.

[@tylern3277]

Hey why don't you buy a PLA heater and shredder for repurposing your failed prints?

Could you swap out chocolates in the print process? Also could you shape any chocolate into that cylinder to print?

Yes - you can program the slicer to pause at a certain layer height and then change the chocolate. So you could do a milk chocolate and then the white chocolate for a two tone look.
