There are a lot of posts that don't load the images in the app, but show fine on the lemmy.world website. It's not just limited to the Garfield community. Is this a Lemmy.world issue or Boost?

Build process is 99% complete. I taped on the panels initially using painter's tape so I could print the skirts and a few mods in ABS. Several mods are already in place, including Nevermore, panel clips, picam mount, Rock-'n'-roll, and LEDs. I had a TFT50 screen sitting around from a defunct Ender 5 that I swapped with LDO's TFT43.

Also since last time, I changed from Klicky to KlickyPCB. I've had waaaaay more consistent probing with the PCB kit than I ever had with regular Klickym and I highly recommend the PCB version, Maybe a bit of mea culpa, I couldn't for the life of me get the magnets to go flush into the Klicky mount, so there was some wobble that isn't present in the PCB version.

Last thing to do is to close up the electronics with the bottom panel and I'll be ready for a serial number 😁

Finished everything up assembly-wise. Still lots of tuning to do, but I'd say this first print looks phenomenal for not having done any tuning other than Klicky+calibrate_z

Some below deck electronics done too. I'm so close I can smell it

Had a few setbacks since last week, including needing to relube the belts with a more appropriate grease. Also, one of the parts for the clockwork 2 was busted. I can't print ABS yet since I don't have an enclosure, so I opted to print the clockwork parts in Fiberlogy PA12+CF15. PA12 is OK according to the Voron print guide so I'm hoping it'll work. My PIF supplier said he'd send me a replacement, so I'll have a spare in case.

Anyhow, everything is belted up, hotend is assembled, and I built my Klicky (that was a huge pain...), so I think I'm ready for electronics 😀

Having a hard time uploading the latest picture, will try again soon.

Also got it belted up, but found out afterwards that I used a grease that is controversial on the rails (superlube with syncolor). It's recommended by LDO and Nero3D uses it in his video, but many folks on the Voron Discourse say it's a no-go. I'd rather not risk it, so I'm uninstalling the rails, cleaning/degreasing them, and reapplying some white lithium grease.

Just installed the bed on my 2.4 last night. Lots to do yet, but it's starting to look like a printer!

I've got a SodaStream with an adapter to hook it to a 20 lb CO2 tank. Rather than buying the stupid expensive SS drops, I put between 8-12 of drops of these in. They've got a ton of candy flavors and most that I've tried are quite good!

Caught this little guy in by front yard two years ago.

If you didn't already know of it, filamentcolors.xyz is a website that collects swatches of 3d printing filaments to help people choose colors. They prints swatches of filaments colors, analyse their spectral contents, and create approximate hex values (among other things).

I'm a visual learner and very much wanted an interactive way to view the data. I created a plotly visualization that displays all of the filaments (as of June 16, 2023) in a scatter plot. To access, simply download the html file from github and open in your browser. You can zoom, pan, and rotate using your mouse wheel, right mouse button, and left mouse button, respectively. Hovering over a data point will tell you the filament name/brand, original hex value, rgb values, and hsv values.

I contacted the owner of filamentcolors.xyz before sharing since he technically owns the dataset, and he was OK with me sharing this with the larger community. He even seemed interested in including a widget like this on the site proper, so we might see something like it there, soon.

I hope this is useful to you!

Edit: figured out how to do a direct link to github.io.

Near the eastern shore of Oahu from my vacation back in February.

Taken about a month ago. They are quite rare in my area. He must have just been passing through, because we saw him for a day or two and that's it.
