Could this Printing Material Recommendation Question be or shaped to be valid on 3D SE?
I was thinking about your question this morning, and I saw that there were no replies. SE 3D Printing is quite a small site and there aren't an awful lot of regulars here - but there are just enough ...

Repairing 3D printer
I'd say that repair questions are more on-topic than construction. And if construction questions are okay, then repair questions should be too.
An example format might be:
How do I repair {X}
I've ...

Why do I have a 'User was removed' entry on my reputation change sheet?
A user's account was deleted, for whatever reason. Therefore, any votes that they had cast in the past were automatically deleted, and any associated reputation changes were lost. A lot of other ...

Is there a way to manually add tags?
Looking at some of the meta questions (1,2) and having asked myself the questions about proper tagging, is there way that we can add/edit tags in mass quantities?
No. That's deliberate - tags are not ...

Why was this flag on a 'thanks' reply to a deleted +1 comment declined?
That action didn't appear in the moderator activity history, so I'm not exactly sure how it was handled. Regardless, I agree and have deleted the comment.

Deletion of the tag [flashforge-adventure-3]
Spelling error, so rename is fine. Synonym is not necessary, tag may be deleted IMHO.

Renaming the tag [folgertechft-5] to separate company from model
Most of our other tags have a similar naming schedule: aneta8, aneta6, aneta2. Once you fix that for 1, you need to do all. I do not think that will be necessary.
Furthermore, you can find the tag by ...

Tag synonym: support & support-structures

So it looks like [tag:e3d-hermes] should be changed to [tag:e3d-hemera]
Yes it is possible to rename tags, but it would indeed be better to create a synonym as the extruder has had the Hermes name for a while. This means the Hermes tag will be replaced by the Hemera tag ...

Is a question about software to create models on-topic?
OlafM! One could say that 3D reconstruction is a bit sidetracked from typical 3D printing (apart from the 3D part :)), but then again, 3D reconstruction and printing also go hand in hand in some cases,...
