This design I call an exercise with Fusion 360. I wanted to make a fridge magnet note holder that looked like a free lance flower bloom. This is what I developed.
I wasn’t trying to produce any particular species of flower. So I don’t know if any part of this is true to nature and natural flower blooms. Just a freelance of how I wanted my flower to look.

Tiertime and it’s firmware and software have always marched to their own drum. It’s their way or the highway for most features. They do permit a very tiny smattering of Marlin-type G-code. I have been able to run the original Cetus with Simplify3D slicer. But some settings are very strange. Standard flow is 20 rather than the “standard 1”.
I have become proficient with the Tiertime slicer(s) UPStudio and now UPStudio3 and use them for all CETUS printing.
This post I want to mention the unique “feature” of the original CETUS and it’s bed leveling. It has none. No mechanical leveling that is.

SMJ1 Update
I have been using the Snapmaker J1 (SMJ1) since the first of the year 2023. It’s been almost 12 weeks.
It has had some faults. The most serious was a failed ribbon cable at the left extruder head. It had a 90 degree crease in the large flat cable that became a concentrated flex point when printing. The wiring in the ribbon cable failed open (broke) like flexing a paper clip until it breaks.

I have to proclaim that hobby 3D printing is not an enjoyable pursuit for the mechanically and technically challenged. One must be 100 percent committed to being fully self-motivated and self-sustained with all hardware and operational configurations and repair/maintenance needs.
Here are three of my ten (and more) of my 3D printers. One (not shown) is a duplicate (still in the box) of the Tiertime Cetus2 on the right in this photo. I also have a 3rd Cetus2 which is the prototype stored in my workshop. I have several UV Resin printers in the workshop.
