    Breathing through 3D-printed plastic would be bad enough for you without the cigarettes.

      Eventually the filament will get coated and sealed in a nice, thick layer of tar and protect your lungs from the microplastics! You just gotta break it in a little bit.

        Melted plastic, plastic fumes, and microplastic particles already aren’t great for you, and 3D-printing introduces a bunch of ways for them to be introduced directly into your body.

        I worked in the 3D-printing industry for a long time, and I’m confident whoever does my autopsy is going to get a clown-style poof of confetti.
