Just because of your silly comment, I'm going to make my own model of this, even though someone already has, and Im going to print it out. Why? Because those two things will cost less and take less time than ordering one.

Edit: A little sketch, and a little revolve, and the .stl has been sent to the printer.

Here’s hoping you threw a little fillet on the top outer rim. That model was begging for a bit of a rounded edge.

Depends on which generation of mario game you're going with.

Old ones didn't have the pixels for the fillet

Yeah, good idea. Let's use more plastic for useless fucking things. Or, maybe just go the fucking hardware store and buy it.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Make it at home out of plastic or go buy a plastic one? Brilliant.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Good idea. Instead of using plastic and harming the environment, have some other guy use plastic to make it and then ship it to you all the way from China.

Or just don't make a useless pen holder of of plastic in the first fucking place. Cut open a soda can or some shit. I don't fucking know, but people are making me out to be some kind of monster for telling people not to needlessly use plastic. What the fuck.

It's cause you're coming across like an A-hole. Why are you even hanging out in the 3D printing community if you don't think people should be printing things?

[–] [email protected] -1 points 1 year ago (2 children)

I'm not saying that people can't print things, I'm just saying that if you want a pipe, you can just go and buy a pipe. There is no need to print one out.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

But that's not what pipes really look like outside of cartoons. You can't run down to Home Depot and but Mario World pipe to use as a pen holder. Maybe someday, but not today.

Paint it green, glue a piece of cork into the bottom to seal it. I bet everyone will know what it is.

Do you actually wanna discuss this or do you just want to rant at people like a jerk? I'll gladly discuss it calmly but you're being a total jerk.

You are insufferable, why are you even here? Never mind I won't read your answer.
