- Comment on Treadmill modded into giant 3D printer with an endless print bed size — taking 3D print sizing to the extreme 3 days ago:
In case anyone here doesn’t follow it, Ivan’s YouTube channel is awesome, he has been working on a crazy marble clock: youtu.be/K3FMVmAte3g
ProperPrinting is also great, he has some cool videos on custom extruders and printers he designed and a wild extruding resin printer with UV lasers.
- Comment on I'm guilty of not reading the f..ing documentation 2 weeks ago:
Oh it is certainly not just you, I am sometimes confused reading them even for commands I have used for years and I know what flag I am looking for but don’t remember the exact syntax or something hah! I am glad they are there but they are definitely not a complete guide to any command, especially built-ins.
Interestingly, this is something AI has been very useful for to me, less searching because I can describe the outcome I want and it figures out what I am talking about generally.
- Comment on TrueNAS Scale, hard disks, and pools 2 weeks ago:
Okay so the disks aren’t also on UPS? That might actually be even worse than the whole thing getting turned off, ZFS is definitely not meant to be run on removable disks like that.
- Comment on TrueNAS Scale, hard disks, and pools 2 weeks ago:
Okay so when you say “unplug the power” do you mean shut it down first or just pull the plug? The latter is a great way to corrupt your storage pools as ZFS uses memory for read and write cache etc by default. You definitely need to do a graceful shutdown especially if there is data that was recently written to disk, that’s why a UPS is so recommended. That said you can usually import an existing pool when that happens, I think there is a UI menu for it now.
- Comment on mDNS behind a gluetun container? 1 month ago:
Have you tried adding 239.255.255.250/32 to your external subnets? This is the multicast address for SSDP which mDNS ultimately relies on if I remember right, I recall having to do this for Plex in the past.

Just to make sure, all of your links need to be in quotes if they are not. The
:in a url can make some yaml parsers think that it is another block, there are other URL safe characters in general that are special characters in yaml so it’s a good idea to put them in quotes. - Comment on Trouble keeping a top-heavy TPE part on the bed 2 months ago:
In addition to everyone’s suggestions, have you tried rotating the part so it is at a 45 on the bed? This will keep the printer from accelerating as much in the Y direction since it is not a straight motion, I used to have to do that for tall prints on my Mk3 sometimes.
Also, if I were printing that part I would flip it over unless there is some reason you can’t. You might also get more rigidity using normal supports for the large surface facing the bed, might print faster too, tree supports for large areas take a while for me usually.

I remember your first post a year or so ago and dang you have been busy, it looks really great. I will definitely be installing this at home to organize product manuals and such.

Have you ever dried this filament? Silica beads won’t dry out filament, they will just keep the air in the box dry. I have definitely had to dry filament from the factory, especially PETG.
