- Comment on Finding people who vibe with you is so hard 1 week ago:
Unfortunately I found that to meet new people you need to make an effort… Sometimes a lot of effort. But it is rewarding. I was in the same boat. Moved back to the city I grew up in, 3 years passed, no new friends. So I made an effort to go to different events and meet people in real life. It has helped a bunch. Sure I’m not going to get along with everyone but you only need to get along with at least one person and you’ll be good. If you get along with more then that’s just a bonus at that point.

I olayed the crap out of blue prince and I actually hated the game. Might just be me though but IMO the game has some incredible big flaws.

True. I’ll try to do all of the belt tension troubleshooting on their website first and if it doesnt work I’ll reach out.
- Comment on How bad are my printer's VFAs? 4 weeks ago:
So it is kind of bad I assume. Prusa recommends 96hz for the top belt and 92 hz for the bottom belt but i cant hit those numbers. For some reason my bottom belt is tighter than the top one. If I try to tighten the top belt more than the bottom one my gantry is no longer square. I think something is messed up so I’m going to just take the belt assembly apart and see if I can figure it out :/

Oof that sounds rough. I hope it’s all fine now.

It’s half the reason I got a steam deck. It can’t play everything but it can play a good portion of my games and I can plug it into a TV.

I’m not going to say it was smooth sailing but I think I’m through the rough waters. This past day I’ve been printing basically non-stop and every print has been pretty much flawless.
The days before this though I had:
- Diagnose z-axis movement issues.
- Accidentally printed PETG onto the smooth bed plate. (I knew this was bad but I just assumed it was bad adhesion, I didn’t realize the problem was the opposite LOL)
- Broke the belt tension adjustment piece and had to drill holes into it to remove it and replace it with a piece I printed with PETG.
- Diagnose a “ghost clog” where I took off the nozzle, found no clog, took apart the nextruder and found nothing and realized at the end it was bad filament.

I do not have a caliper unfortunately but I do have one arriving in the mail in a week or so. I realized I needed one once I started trying to design things with a tight fit.
- Comment on Crappy filament? 4 weeks ago:
Yeah. The good news is after cutting off the problematic part of the spool, the rest of it has been printing very nicely and I’m already halfway done the spool.
- Comment on Crappy filament? 4 weeks ago:
I was using Prusa’s default profile for PETG which heats the nozzle up to 250 C. If you are correct about it being PET, it should still have melted.
- Comment on Crappy filament? 4 weeks ago:
It was a brand new spool so the extruder idea is probably out. Also I tried cutting 10cm off of it which should be long enough that it would be too far away from the extruder anyways. I was also using Prusa’s default profile which heats the nozzle to 250 C! Anyways I’m glad I figured it out. Next time I suspect a nozzle clog though I’m going to try swapping the filament as well before I do something major like take apart the extruder.
- Comment on Want some advice on which filaments to use 4 weeks ago:
I think the consensus from my research is that PLA sucks for practical prints. If you are going to put a constant load on it or if the location can get a bit hot then the print can fail. PLA is also very rigid which can be good but can also be a negative if you want some give. I’m probably only going to use PLA for more “show pieces” that will only be used indoors and will not take a beating. For things like plastic cases, it’s probably fine.

Steam machine while it’s cooling
- Comment on Want some advice on which filaments to use 4 weeks ago:
I’ve read that while PLA is biodegradable it’s not compostable and require industrial composters to break down. So unless you are printing with chocolate or something weird, none of the materials are great for the environment.
- Comment on Crappy filament? 4 weeks ago:
Will try a different brand once I’m done this spool. The weird thing is the white filament was perfectly fine.
- Comment on Crappy filament? 4 weeks ago:
The weird thing is that it prints fine now. Since I’ve fixed the issue I’ve sent over 3 jobs to the printer and all 3 printed mostly fine. Some stringing but it’s PETG so somewhat expected. It was just that first 10 or so cm of filament that just refused to melt. So weird…

I can’t really print it in a better material until I get ventilation figured out which might not be until spring of next year. I did order some parts from Prusa in case the part I printed fails so worst case I have to swap it out but so far it works very well :D
- Comment on Assembled my first 3D printer 4 weeks ago:
Good luck man. It’s crazy that you spend so much time building this giant thing and yoi don’t find out if you built it correctly until the very end.
That is probably my biggest complaint with it. I’ve spent long time building things before but for those projects I can always test what I’ve already built so I am never worried about it not working. But this, this is such a complex piece of machinery and you just kind of pray it works at the very end.
