Soon, the visible seam on 3D printed parts will be greatly diminished, thanks to a new development called scarf seams. In this video, I shine a spotlight on the work of the developers, as well as the work of the community in testing to make sure it works. All the details you need to test yourself are included, plus my own testing results across a range of 3D printers.
