I also have issues like what you’re swing when I’m printing with PETG, and using gyroid 100% eliminates it for me.

Is this the same guy that made the marble clock with same working principle?
- Comment on How do you store lots of spools? 1 day ago:
I just store mine in bins as well… I don’t have an entire room to dedicate to just 3D printing, and bins with spools stacked in them is by far the least space consuming way to store them.

It prints the skirt first, but yes.
- Comment on Recommendations other than Bambu and Prusa? 1 day ago:
Yeah then it sounds like I was lucky with mine then. I only needed their support once when I just got the machine. I had a defective Y-stepper, but they were quick and i had the correct replacement motor within a week. A friend of line had the previous generation, and he has basically no original parts left aside from the frame and belts.

Maybe Igor lucky with mine 🤷♂️ which model have you tried, and how long ago was it? Mine is only a year old
- Comment on Preparations for halloween with my biggest print yet 1 day ago:
Something like $4USD in filament and a few cents in electricity
- Comment on Preparations for halloween with my biggest print yet 1 day ago:
Mostly it just gives me a chance to change the z-offset before it starts printing the model. 9/10 times I don’t have to change anything though. I purge and prime the nozzle before this.

I have an Anycubic Kobra 2 that is pretty OK. Only mods I’ve done are print a new fan duct for better cooling and flash klipper on it, other than that it’s original HW. It obviously requires some tuning for best possible results, but the printing with just Anycubics setup guide OOTB were decent.
- Comment on Spawn #2 printed huge on hueforge by Uncle Jessy 4 weeks ago:
The surface is flat, it’s absolutely 2D art. Whatever thickness the material has is pretty irrelevant WRT 2D v. 3D when there is no spacial quality to the piece. This cool, but it is no more 3D art than a regular painting or laser edged piece of wood.
- Comment on You can set text as a layer modifier in Orca 5 weeks ago:
Z offset like you mentioned is probably wrong, extrusion multiplier is probably wrong, extruder might be incorrectly calibrated, PA is definitely wrong. It really looks like it hasn’t received any tubing at all and this was just done with OTB defaults.
- Comment on You can set text as a layer modifier in Orca 5 weeks ago:
Just start from the top of Ellis guide, that should help you fix this and get a significantly better print quality.
- Comment on You can set text as a layer modifier in Orca 5 weeks ago:
People accep different qualities I guess, if you’re satisfied and it works then there’s no reason to change things.
- Comment on You can set text as a layer modifier in Orca 5 weeks ago:
Fun idea and it can male.a nice.touch of detail to an otherwise dull area…but holy crap that’s a bad first layer.

No I want full access to my home media server for streaming, I have very little use for SSH only in this case.

Yeah this actually works, but only specifically for openvpn on 443 in TCP mode…anything wireguard is blocked regardless of port.

This did the trick, ingot my tailscale to stay connected by using my phone AP to log on and then switched to hotel WiFi…thanks

- Comment on [Help] My Ender 3 isn't powering the extruder motor. Do I need a new motherboard? 1 month ago:
we can skip past the fantasy that you could replace a surface mount stepper driver yourself.
The MBs on these cheap printers are usually so cheap it isn’t worth the hassle, even if you have the skills and tools.
- Comment on Faux Wood Grain using MMU! 1 month ago:
I’d love a 3D chameleon for my printer, but their shipping rate (I live in EU) is absolutely insane and unreasonable since they don’t even handle import and taxes for that price.

I’ve tried the modern UI plugin, it makes freecad crash every 15min or so on my computer.
- Comment on Prusa MK4s launch (TLDR) 1 month ago:
Yeah if I pay 3700€ for a tool, I expect it to work pretty flawlessly out if the box.

Uuh…looks like any food safe HDPE container with a lid can do what that thing does. Just go buy one that fits your microwave?
- Comment on If you bought a 3D printer for personal use, was it worth it? 1 month ago:
Financially? Definitely not
But it’s an enjoyable (if occasionally frustrating) hobby, so I’d say it’s worth it.

Yeah the documentation (if it even exists) is usually clearly written by people intimately familiar with the project and then never reviewed to make sure it makes sense for people unfamiliar with it.
