Yikes. As temping as free is, I think i’ve played this one enough
My phone is ready
Just bring back my optical audio connection Phil!
Is the sims 3 one of those? Ive been looking at getting the collection on steam but likely wont if i’m gonna screw myself
Now i’m curious. Was it just a lot of dust and dried Inc. or what else was in them?
Instructions unclear, I’ve given the whole printer a bath and now all it does is blow bubbles
Thank you! I’ll take a peak at it!
Thank you! Its the perfect size for things like this
I appreciate the info! I’ll be honest, I understand wiring and hardware but I get out of my depth once we start getting into firmware and software.
I’m thanking my lucky stars that Octoprint was as easy as it was. That being said, if that open source ams makes any progress, I might just reach out since it seems like klipper is the only thing it’ll work with. If you don’t mind, I may reach out when I get the courage up to give it a shot.
I appreciate your confidence in me, but I don’t think up for trying to learn how to deal with it. I don’t do well with troubleshooting firmware/software when things go tits up
Thank you!
I have a pi 4b running octoprint hooked up. Is there any advantage to going the klipper route?
In theory it shouldn’t mater if i use 4.2.2 firmware on the 4.2.7 board right?
Motherboard swap!
After tuning my vref, the printer was missing steps still. I pulled the trigger and am swapping from the 4.2.2 to the 4.2.7 creality board to see if that resolves the issue.
While i was in there, I figured I’d put another z axis motor on there.
Do you guys have any recommendations on firmware or should I just stick with creality’s?
Good to hear! I pretty gave up on Sony ports after Helldivers ran like a potato, but maybe it was just that particular game
I wish they would have the specs ready to go when they announce these things. I don’t want to get all hyped just to find out my 1660s isn’t gonna have a chance in hell of running the game
Now I want a "my grandchildren are still in my selfish sons huge balls" sock
Nope, just a very moody Ender 3v2 Neo
It looks like my perimeter speed is 40 mms and my infill is 50mms
Thank you for the tip! I just checked, it looks like it was disabled so that wasn’t my issue. I wonder why it was causing you issues though
Clogged nozzle?
Sorry for the potato quality picture. I really thought we were over this since I tune the vref, but I guess not.
Do you guys have any idea why my info would look like this but all the walls on the printer are fine? I assume if it was a clog nozzle it would be inconsistent.
Framing cleaning help
I apologize if this isn’t the correct community ask, but i was hoping for a bit of help getting this frame cleaned up.
My wife and I picked this piece up today. There’s some water damage and i’m wondering what the best way to clean the fabric matting would be or if we should get it replaced.
For those curious it looks like the artist is Edward Aldrich. We think its an oil painting and from the date we’re guessing its from 97.
Thanks everyone!
P.S. I took a look through the community and the art here is amazing!
Thank you!
Thank you guys for pointing out the vref issue in my last post! I got it adjusted, and they were all fairly high so now they should be dialed in. While I was in there, I figured I should probably calibrate the extrusion steps as well.
I’ve got a couple larger projects coming down the pipeline. But if I can go off of this cube, I think I’ll be in good shape.
The art and the artist
I left the print over the weekend and I came back to spaghetti. It looks like something, caused the printer to push the print off its base like it was a poorly leveled bed?
I still have to watch the camera footage to see what failed, but I hope you guys get a chuckle out of the spaghetti monster like I did.
Which slicer do you use
Hi everyone!
I'm curious to know which slicer you guys use.
I've been using the Creality slicer, but it seems like it pretty consistently crashes, and I've tried Cura but the print seemed stringy despite using the same settings.
How are Orca or Prusa?
How?
Does this hobby ever get easier or is it always like getting kicked in the nuts by Ronaldo?
Filament some how leaked up and burned on. I just don’t have it in me to keep tinkering. I just want to print
Extruder clicking
Is there any reason that little silver part of the extruder wouldn’t move and start clicking while printing when printing at 205 in PLA. It seems to turn just fine without any filament in there otherwise.
I cleaned out a nozzle clog, but is it possible there’s junk in the hot end stuck?
Resolution: Thanks for your help everyone! It ended up being a nozzle clog that I didn’t get all the way out. I ended up heating the printer up and doing the cool down trick. That seemed to work as a last ditch effort before buying a new nozzle.
Fallout 1 tips
I recently picked up a PC and decided to give the original fallout game a try. Do you guys have any tips or tricks I should know before I get started?
Ender 3 V3 Neo Enclosure
Hi all! I was curious to see if anyone had any recommendations for an enclosure for the Ender V3 Neo. I found a few on Amazon, but they look like grow tents and wasn’t sure if that would work well. For a bit of context, it seems like an enclosure is a must have for ABS printing which is ultimately what I’m after.
Thanks everyone!
Ender 3 V2 Neo Bolt Sizes
I recently picked up an Ender 3 V2 Neo at auction. All the pictures looks great, I was told it functioned, and I saw some pictures of it put together.
Long story short either they didn't include the bolts to mount the screen/gantry or kept them.
Does anyone know what screen bolts and gantry mounting bolts I need? Thanks in advance!
What do we think the armed combat is going to be like?
It looks like we have a couple perks, but is it going to be viable until the late game?
What should I read next?
I have both The Institute and Fairy Tale on my list next, but do you guys any recommendations on which one I should pick up first?
First Sail with gear
We loaded up the Hunter 170 today to see how she would sail when loaded down with camping gear in preparation for next weekend’s trip to the Apostle Islands.
My wife is still a bit nervous, but feeling much more confident after today. Please ignore the watering can. She wanted to put a bit more weight onboard just in case.
