  • Yeah what does “substantially” mean in this context?

    The context is laid out clearly. You earn one additional dollar and that one additional dollar puts you in the 33% tax bracket.

    Your tax bill would go up by 33% of one dollar. $0.33. Total.

    The question doesn’t specify whether we’re talking about total dollars paid or just how much the tax percentage increases in that bracket.

    It’s irrelevant. Your “total dollars paid” in taxes would increase by $0.33, and the difference that extra dollar is taxed vs the previous dollar is $0.05. Neither of these are “substantial.”

    This question simply asks whether 0: you have reading comprehension skills and 1: you understand how tax brackets work.






  • Fear ABS and ASA like your worst nightmare

    ABS and ASA are awesome, but if you don’t have an enclosure the warping and odor can make them a pain to work with (the odor is powerful, irritating, and potentially dangerous).

    But the end result is strong and can be smoothed with acetone fumes. I consider ABS and ASA my “okay, this one is serious” filaments. Parts that need to be able to withstand stronger forces and higher heat, or stuff that I want to look really good with some very easy post-processing.


  • Designed and printed a magnetic prime line brush, to have a use for the lines my P1S begins each print with, that can attach to the frame and live inside the print enclosure. This one uses the extra scraper magnet that came with the printer, but I designed a version of it to use 6x2mm magnets as well, and versions of each with and without the Bambu logo (I know they’re not exactly the community’s favorite these days, and I understand why).
