I guess I’ll burn the last 200g on this roll going through the whole calibration suite again while the last one is drying

it has modeled supports that were removed

I haven’t tried it yet but I ordered a couple of tz v6 v3 for my dual extruder build that has been pending electronics for ages. If they perform well I might get more and put a tool changer on my main printer.

I sort of did this today. I was testing what each setting in orca slicer’s scarf seam section did and I had the scarf flow at 0.6 and forgot I even had scarf seam on but some seemingly random features ended up as disconnected lines and I blew through like half a roll in calibration prints that came out flawless or near flawless before I realized

I’m shocked at how much it recovered. I’m also glad I’m not the only one still running an ender 3.

Do you have a multi meter? You might have to adjust the little screw for the y motor. I’ll see if I can find the instructions for that. The wires in my pic are from the uart mod so I can do it in software.

Edit: people called it vref adjustment. You want it low enough that the motors don’t overheat but high enough that it can move the bed and the print without skipping. If you have an aftermarket board the procedure might be different and you might be able to do it in settings.

Also if you haven’t already, I would also recommend unscrewing the wires one by one in the green screw terminals and clip off the soldered ends and strip off enough to put the bare wire back in and screw them down to avoid the fire risk. Crimped ferrules would be better but that needs a crimper and the ferrules.

Here’s what can happen with the stock soldered wire ends: And I caught this one as the electronics were off the printer and outside of my old ikea lack enclosure. If you dont notice it it could be really bad.

Smoking not our future

Damn. I was expecting dmca but fuck this jazz too

I usually blame this on the hardware manufacturers for being secretive gatekeepy fucks that make things only work with shitty drivers

D3d sigma prototyping abs. I was expecting it to be shit but it had no problems at all. It’s actually my remaining stock from the ender 3v2 era and it still works as expected. It’s still available but it could be totally different now for all I know. Several brands became big names now but d3d seemingly became less known. They also had transparent abs which I previously bought for voron toolhead leds but it was out of stock when I was looking at the available colours the other day.

The only recent comparison I can do is the eryone black abs I bought this month that I swear is just stinky petg. Super glossy vaguely waxy feel, very stringy and oozey.

For muddy rocks, cool bugs, weird grass that makes you itchy, neat mushrooms, this weird fuzzy thing, etc.

Can’t even get it where I live but I’ve been wanting to try it. Those prices are bonkers though and it better be really good to justify it. I get my cleanest prints off of $14 cad per 1kg roll ABS and its really hard to justify the things the more expensive filaments when they print like shit after doing every calibration

We need to kill the billionaires and their politicians sooner than immediately right now

One of my friends put up what we have been calling skeleton awnings last month and its insane how much of a difference it makes with no electrical cost, and maybe even savings.

Its just a frame but it casts a full shadow at the time of peak sun exposure

I started using headcrab updater to install slssteam and ensure steam is held to the latest compatible version, and move installed repacks to the steamapps/common/game location for more seamless usage. I have this working on my bazzite steam deck (haven’t personally tested steamos but it should work) and my cachy desktop and even VR works without extra stuff this way since some recent steamvr updates made pc to standalone headset not suck in linux.

Even if you aren’t a pirate pc poweruser Slssteam also lets you bypass family library usage restrictions and everyone can play one copy of a game at the same time, including online gameplay. I did a few rounds of slay the spire 2 where my brother and I each played 2 characters to test, and a friend did a solo 4 player this way as well.

Nintendo is more like “HD from 2.5 to 4 generations ago edition”

This sounds like the study was funded by anti abortion losers. Contraception isn’t the problem, its billionaires, lobbyists, and politicians making it utterly unaffordable and morally wrong in multiple ways, but only left leaning people would even consider holding back on having children based on how much suffering they would guarantee their own children by merely giving birth to them.

damn I kinda want to hear that.

literally hours ago someone asked me to 3d print that and linked to an ai generated model but you need a paid account to download it

another meme in the mirror

they have already done all the model training, just waiting for that signature, or a loophole to use it anyway and get away with it
