I mainly use Elegoo Rapid PETG. I hated PETG because of it’s very low speed, but this filaments is a real game changer. Prints fast and easy. A bit stringier than PLA. Idry it before storing, which helps a lot. I don’t think I have seen anything inside with 3 or more top layers. What filament are you using?

Konqueror? KDE’s browser?

I think you meant to say Mosaic.

Very pleased to meet herself.

I have a printer that started life as an Ender 5 Plus. the print volume is 350x350x400. I have printed some pretty big things, like a full size Mandalorian helmet in one piece, and never maxed it out. A lot of my prints would fit in a Bambu lab A1 mini. Ask yourself how many large prints you’d do in one piece. Also, printing large prints can be stressful, as failures mid print are a lot more painful in large prints. You won’t see many printers larger than 350 for a reason.

My printer has been converted to an Endorphin Hybrid CoreXY so of the original printer, little more than the frame, motors, and bed remains. It’s a pretty competent printer. Over 3x the stock speed, good quality prints, and cost me around 150€, including an overkill (not really, has room for a toolchanger mod I’m planning) Octopus Max board. if you use a simpler board, you could probably shave around 40€. I had the printer, so it was a no brainer for me.

I got a couple of rails that were larger, because for some reason they were cheaper than the original. I cut them to size with an angle grinder on a miter adaptor which I had, but which are cheap. Just make sure you wrap the rails in masking tape, and grind down the edges a little. Any speck of iron dust will wreck the carriages.

Ender 5 Pluses are cheap used.

If I were starting from zero, maybe I would have looked into an Elegoo Centauri carbon, 310€, or an Anycubic Kobra X,339€ including 4 color MMU, or ideally a Snapmaker U1 toolchanger, 850€.

Just because I have some rails wouldn’ really justify building a printer from scratch, but that’s just me. To me is like justifying building a mountain bike from scratch because I got some wheels free.

How good a welder are you? introducing a 1-2mm. difference is really easy when welding, not to mention the squareness of the frame. Extrusions allow for corrections.

can’t you just append “make your reply as concise as possible” work?

Most applies to MAGA

It can be generally said that many (most) viruses evolve to be non-lethal, as lethality reduces their ability to successfully reproduce and thrive. This was the most probable outcome, although epidemiologists warned that “most” doesn’t mean all. Mutations are not predictable. Some viruses are horribly lethal.

Spain has a lot of Celtic (central and north Spain are often included in the Celtic nations, although the celtic language has been lost), Germanic (Goth, Visigoth, and many other tribes), Latin, Moorish, Phoenician, and others in the mix. Maybe that is why so many Europeans like it in Spain.

Also, remember that the French invented chauvinism, which basically says " fuck you, non French”

Find a Pic where her hands can be seen. Hands are one of the few areas where surgery isn’t practical, and for some reason they age a lot more in women than men’s.

By 2032 Wine will probably be advanced enough to run any Windows program

My 80 yr old mother got a laptop recently, W11. I downgraded to W10 LTSC, and dual boot with Mint, and ran Chris Titus’ win util to decrapify. Two weeks later she had allowed windows to trick her into upgrading to W11 again.

She’s been using computers since the 70’s, and owned PCs since the DOS era, but she just doesn’t want to bother with anything but using her PC in autopilot mode. Couldn’t care less about exploring Mint.

Chris Titus’ windows utility will decrapify Windows quite a bit, including removing telemetry, copilot and much more stuff for those unable/unwilling to move to Linux.

For those a bit more adventurous he provides a Microwin install image creator that tweaks a standard ISO to be as light as possible, removing as much crap as possible during install, making install un atended, and creating a local account.

It’s not that he doesn’t realize, it’s that he’s senile and genuinely a bad person, and couldn’t care less about the consequences, as long as the noise keeps Epstein out of the news. That’s why I urge everybody to call this the Epstein war.

Lightning is usually my go to for non functional parts.

Way lower print times and filament use.

For functional parts I usually use gyroid, adaptive cubic, 3D hexagon or one of the other I fills that puts filament in many directions in three axes. unless the stress points are very obvious, and then I sometimes eyeball basic bracing and add it with my (very) limited CAD skills.

I believe Shaheds cost around 50.000, but still

Hasn’t OnlyOffice been accused of license shenanigans?

You are correct. Edited.

Not really. All are heat pumps. if they go both ways they are inverter reversible heat pumps.
