That makes a lot more sense, TIL. Thanks!

How would one consume buckthorn? That stuff is super invasive around here, so there's a ton of it around. Leaves? The berries?
The next time you buy a pineapple, save the rind and make tepache with it. It's a nice refreshing drink on its own. It's also a great mixer for tequila and rum.
It was probably wrapped and not paint, likely cheaply if stainless was still visible in the door seams. Tesla offers it as a factory option and they call it "color paint film".
The challenger/mustang/camaro pulled this off fairly well for a while. There have been others, like the Thunderbird, but they never sold well.
These days, if it's not a crossover it seems like no one will buy it. I am blissfully unaware of interesting looking old SUVs, but surely one is out there. Maybe the bronco qualifies? Too bad it's suffering from size and price inflation.
Ah, for some reason I thought the glass what was moving was the stationary side. I should have taken a better look at the photo. Thanks for the correction!
Largely agree with the others with one exception. Don't put adhesive inside the channel. It will make future removal basically impossible.
Cut whatever adhesive you can see with a razor, slide the glass out of the channel, clean the channel and glass well, and then reinstall. Run a bead of silicone around the seam. It will be more than enough to hold the glass in place. That's the same way stone countertops are installed - there usually isn't glue between the countertop and the cabinets. The silicone/caulk beads are enough to hold it in place.
Things to keep in mind:
- it's glass, so you'll want to avoid bumping it into things. Put down thick towels/blankets in your work area and wherever you want to put it down. Be very wary of dinging the bottom on the floor/ceiling
- wear PPE. At a minimum leather shoes/boots, thicker pants that aren't skin tight (no skinny jeans), long/heavy/baggy sleeves, leather work gloves, and safety glasses
- it's going to be somewhat heavy. You could measure the panel size and plug it into an online calculator for a decent number. I suggest buying heavy duty suction cups that come with vacuum pumps. These will make moving the glass around a lot easier and they're not that expensive
Good luck!
They did see it coming, this was the goal.
I would be barefoot all day if I could, so I buy "barefoot" style shoes. They're cut to actually fit your foot and have minimal/no cushions.
Brands to look for include groundies and xero shoes. Birkenstock also makes shoes. You can swap insoles if you're not into their sculpted bed and the shoes themselves are built like tanks.
ASA and ABS are warp prone and this is an 11" / ~275mm wide print that's equally tall 🤷
The build volume of my printer means lots of surface area for the acrylic enclosure, which in turn makes it hard for me to exceed a 50°C chamber temp, despite 4x bed fans.
The next print, with normal supports, pulled the bed off the magnetic build plate. Insulation eliminated warping and let me pull off the print.
I do agree that a "nicer" enclosure is the preferred method. I have zero issues with PETG at this size. I've never tried PLA on this printer, but it should be fine too.
I will second this, even though I also agreed with "build a Voron". My 2.4 is a massively capable printer, and has a lot of quality of life features like actual mechanical bed leveling, but odds are your first build will have some teething issues. My extruder motor didn't have a fully aeat wire terminal in its factory harness so it extruded inconsistently. Thankfully it was easy to find and fix. I've had a few wire breaks in my cable chains because I didn't leave enough slack in the runs. The build itself is also long, but I did find it to be straightforward. Vorons are also Vorons, so the modding is endless.
Printer as a tool? Prusa. Maybe also Voron, especially if you want print volume/raw speed/quality of life. Printer as a tinkering device? Voron. Ship of theseus as you upgrade your way to a better printer? Ender.
It's probably down to how much random crap is being loaded along with what you're trying to see. The modern web means page load takes forever, in part because of all the random things your browser also has to pull down. Some of this content need to be loaded before you can render much of anything and some of that will result in calls to yet more random servers. Look at the network tab in your browser's dev tools to see what I'm talking about. Without an ad blocker you're probably looking at calls to 10-20 servers just to load a webpage.
The old reddit API was actually pretty snappy, in part because it didn't need a lot of this overhead. I suspect the same is true for Lemmy - no extra fluff.
