According to engineers from Biotech startup Biophelion,

your unwanted/failed 3D prints might end up in your mouth. As food. According to reports from interestingengineering.com, via the efforts of a specialized, gooey type of fungus, Biophelion discovered plastic can be broken down into the edible polymer pullulan. I guess that means we'll be keeping our Bambu purges in the future. Oh, and we've plenty of benchys laying around. Anyone peckish?

We've all been there.

The print doesn't stick to the plate, or it does, but only partially. Maybe the print finishes, but the filament isn't it the best shape, so you end up with stringing. There are a lot of irritating things that can go awry when printing. What's the one 3D printing problem you run into the most?
