Still looking for a snake that’s small enough. My normal goto, copper wire, is a challenge to use in small tubes as well.

You’re not wrong.
- Comment on [What if scenario] What if all commercial institutions suddenly decided they no longer intend to acknowledge religious events such as Christmas? 1 year ago:
I’ve noticed that seems to be happening, especially with companies like Amazon, whom I work for, aside from the money they can make from it. That said, we also have an example of that in the form of old Soviet Russia. They had actually eliminated most holidays.
- Comment on What if urine was reprocessed by large intestines? 1 year ago:
That is also something that I have wondered about, but that probably isn’t a thing because of salt buildup.
- Comment on What if urine was reprocessed by large intestines? 1 year ago:
That’s actually part of my question. The bowels also dump toxins overboard as well, but will they be enough to do the job?
- Comment on What if urine was reprocessed by large intestines? 1 year ago:
True, though as is, we still need to take in water due to a shortfall in what we do take in. That said, I’m also wondering if my proposal would also result in other waste products being recirculated and building up in the system, causing their own complications.
- Comment on What if urine was reprocessed by large intestines? 1 year ago:
I can totally see that, though what if the body was able to adapt to the new configuration and keep the gut bacteria in its place, but the urine still flowed into the bowels for reprocessing? What else would the large intestines pick up aside from water and maybe salt?

Then you’d be right back where you started for my purposes, still losing moisture unnecessarily.

A cloaca still has facilities for urine to be dumped overboard, doesn’t it? My proposal is to recirculate it before dumping it overboard dry.

- Comment on Where to start with a Volcano hotend? 1 year ago:
Looks like I may be going back to an all metal hotend. I had some decent luck with a Creality Spider, though I’ve found that it isn’t in production and the choice of nozzles limited to pretty much the 04 nozzle that comes with most printers. What’s the CR-10 all metal hotend that is popular and useful and with a good variety of nozzles?

While I know I’m not going to get SLA level detail (which I have given up on for now as I keep busting the LCD of my resin printer every set of prints) I am still hoping I can get to something recognizable, usually at 3x size for the figure, which I could do with the CR10 head and the Spider. Problem is, haven’t been able to even begin to dial in the calibrations, which is what I’m asking for assistance with. Where is a good place to start my tests at?

I do use a dryer on most, if not all of my filament, so I know it isn’t that. Thanks for the tip, though. I literally have a Sonyu dryer with the extrusion nipple of both the top and bottom drilled out to 1/2 inch to get rid of the moisture. I’m able to get it down to 25% humidity at 40c or so inside, and I’ll leave it for days before I print. Same results.

Why? Those are the best ones.
