A WordPress developer, learning a new trade in public
Twenty years building websites, six months into running a 3D printing studio in Orihuela — documenting the whole thing on camera as we go.
The story so far
From code to filament, building a 3D printing studio in Orihuela
Years spent building other people’s websites left an itch for something you could hold. The X2D arrived on the coast in Orihuela and the plan is simple: learn properly, batch print well, and sell what’s genuinely good — filmed the whole way on a DJI Osmo Pocket 4 for anyone else starting from zero.

Why consistency matters
Humidity is the enemy of a clean print
Coastal air pulls moisture into filament fast — every spool goes through the dryer before it’s loaded, which is why prints come out consistent rather than stringy or brittle.
