Happy August! File updates and Reminders...
🕑 Added 2023-08-01 23:58:31 +0000 UTCHi everyone!
I just wanted to quickly touch base after taking July off. It was a very nice break, and I want to thank you all for wishing me a happy vacation! I'm excited to get back into the swing of things. Though I was mostly away from my computer, I did occasionally pick away at my to-do list of fixes and updates to past releases. This includes finishing up captive magnet versions of all the bonus magnets (were applicable). Plus, printability and strength updates to several other designs. See the update notes below for more details. These can be redownloaded from wherever you own the files.
While I have your attention, I also wanted to drop a few reminders...
Selling Prints:
-If you are selling prints, you must be actively subscribed at the "merchant" tier level. If you aren't in the right tier, you can upgrade to the merchant tier at any time. You will only be charged the difference in price from your current level. The Patreon checkout for upgrading makes it kind of sound like you will be charged again fully, but you will not be.
-Merchant tier members, please fill out the seller authorization form. This will add you to my private database, which I use to verify your seller status. If you have a website, it will be added to the Authorized Seller Directory, which I often refer customers to when they request prints. The form is also how you get the authorized seller badge for use in your listings, shops, and booths. You can find the form link in your welcome note HERE.
Discord:
As you may or may not know, your subscription also gives you access to my private Discord server. Discord is a chat server/forum that allows members to discuss topics related to my work, general 3d printing, troubleshooting, printing equipment, painting ideas, seller practices, etc. It's a great resource and often a great way to get support if you are having print problems. You can join the discord server by connecting the discord app in Patreon (you will need to create a free discord account if you don't already have one). That can be done in your settings HERE.
I'm looking forward to a great August! New content will be very coming soon, so stay tuned!
