(Troubleshooting) Advice for improvement (lemmy.world)

My prints up to this point have been okay, but not great. Serious stringing seems to be an issue here, and one of the things I've notice is that the further along the print goes, the more it seems like the print head is almost grinding into the print. To the point where if I'm printing something like a minifigure, it will get ripped apart mid print. Am I overextruding? Missing z steps?

Filament is Overture PETG, Nozzle is 230C and bed is 80C. I have it in an enclosure. I'm running it from a laptop set up with Cura.

They're sequential, so the values above and below yours are valid SSNs of people born in the same hospital around the same time.

This would make it trivially easy to get access to records you shouldn't

Honestly that could be kinda soothing in a way. A nice little slice of life with low stakes.

I've always been a fan of the collarbone zipper shirt idea!

Are you a fan of podcasts? If so, which ones would you recommend? in c/[email protected]

Worst of all and WTYP are excellent. Those are the two I've listened to.

I can also recommend QAA, Knowledge Fight, and Lions Led by Donkeys

Shame to see you go. I enjoyed it here! Best of luck to you in the future!

The latest creation from the mad scientist's lab is boxed red beans and rice but I noticed the recipe called for butter so the little green flakes in there aren't oregano. in c/trees

That's very fair haha

Nice! I'm curious if it changed the flavor in any sort of a significant way

How was it?

Looking for advice on a camera for nature photography under $600. in c/[email protected]
[–] franzfurdinand 2 points 1 month ago

I bought my Rebel EOS on EBay with a lens for under $200 I think. It's a few years old. I spent $100 taking it in to have it professionally cleaned. It's a fantastic little camera! I'm by no means good with it but it does everything I ask of it and then some.

Suppressor Maximum Decibel Reduction in c/guns
[–] franzfurdinand 5 points 2 months ago (1 children)

The SF variant of the H&K USP actually has a locking bar to hold the slide closed. Or at least that was one of the production runs, they may have dropped that feature. The intention there is that you want something that's so quiet that even the slide racking is too much noise. You'd run it with a suppressor and subsonic ammunition.

Effectively it turns it into a manually operated pistol, allowing the user to choose when they chamber the next round.

Have you considered a Space Mouse? They're a little pricey, but should actually give you almost everything you want.

There were three distinct arcs to it, so that might contribute to it feeling short.

Troubleshooting a fully custom build (self.3dprinting)
 

Hey y'all, I managed to hack together a printer from scratch and I'm struggling to get it to print well. It's a CoreXY system that's being controlled by a Octopus 1.1. Dual z screws, the works.

I have it moving under it's own power and all. It's able to actually print, but the results are atrocious.

I'm just trying to diagnose what's wrong here.

The bottom/first layer actually looks kinda good. It's just completely shredding subsequent layers.

Any advice would be appreciated!

Building a Hypercube and looking for advice (self.3dprinting)
 

Howdy y'all, much like the title says, I'm looking to build a Hypercube. I have what was once upon a time an Ender 3 V1 that I've rebuilt with an Ender Extender kit. I'm not happy with the aggressive ghosting I get from the 400x400 bed so I wanted to cannibalize the electronics and build the frame from scratch. I was also planning on keeping the bed since it's got a stick on heater and thermistor that'll work well with the new setup. Hotend too, probably, since it's an all metal Micro Swiss.

Any gotchas to look out for? I know belt tension is a biggie once I get it together, but any gotchas to look out for in the build process?

I'm not too nervous about throwing together a custom firmware for this, it's not my first custom firmware and I'm a software guy by trade so it's pretty straightforward for me.

Fursona Inspired Blankets (lemmy.world)
 

I've been putting these things together for a few years now and I wanna show them off a little bit. I originally started making them to solve a problem - I'm kinda tall, and I like having a blanket that can cover me up from my head to my feet. I hadn't found any that could do that, so I started making these 6'x12' blankets. The example here is fleece on top and flannel on the bottom!

The heart is my maker's mark. Orange because leggy.
