Sounds like you’ll just end up with an ender 6. Maybe you can use that firmware and parts list and build guide?

I’d go prusa mini at this price point. It’s a really reliable little machine, and easier to build than the MK3 and others. Enders are really not worth your time, trust me, I had one.

For figures, and especially testing things that will compare to injection molding, going FDM is a really bad idea. It’s superior for engineering parts and rapid prototyping in basically all cases, but is has terrible dimensional accuracy by comparison, and it has a ton of trouble with thin features and overhanging shapes. This is mainly because the nozzle width is orders of magnitude wider than the pixels on a resin printer, so the slicer has to get very creative with dimensions to make complex models work at all. I am a huge FDM enthusiast, but this really isn’t the right place for it.

I’m a heavy parametric CAD user, so I’m not very knowledgeable on blender, but I do know a lot of people who use it for this sort of modeling. It does actually have some really good parametric CAD plugins for when you need mesh parts to work well with precise dimensions.

This can be caused by gantry misalignment/warping, or not registering the bed mesh properly. Also, maybe the bed is warped in some way that was in the middle of the test points, so maybe a finer mesh could fix this.

I am not a PhD in this explain the joke pls.

One thing about the bottom edge fillets, they actually can work for small radii. More than 1.5mm will start to show issues, but because of how small curves slice, it actually works below this value.

I just bought a bigger printer. No more seams! Realistically though, plastic welding or epoxy and paint, and a whole lot of sanding.

Ok thanks, I checked the profile page and nothing was there. Turns out play store identified it as being up to date but it wasn’t, so the saved feature didn’t exist for me. Updated and now it works!

I have a very new Thinkpad (X1 extreme Gen 5) and it has been a lot of trouble. Started out with a bad battery which I had to get support to change out. A few months later one of the fans jammed, and instead of being replaceable like on older models, it was welded to the Mainboard, meaning that the entire board needed to be replaced, CPU GPU and all. A few months later, my performance took a huge hit, and I needed to get the Mainboard replaced yet again. The customer support was really great, but they definitely don’t build them like they used to.

They definitely just don’t know how to use mate connectors. I don’t prefer fusion over other CAD, but it’s not that fundamentally flawed as you say.

After switching to onshape, I have had the true revelation that it was actually solidworks fault the whole time for doing multibody modelling in a bad way.

The herman miller aeron is the best chair ever. other chairs I’ve tried all feel so much worse, and ventilate terribly. I recommend removing the back support to make them even more comfortable.

Also, Patagonia backpacks are really nice. I used one for 9 years of daily heavy use for school, but they also work well for laptops and travel if you get the right one.

mf I haven’t used jerboa in days and I still feel for this

I think the issue is partly with the account switcher system, which seems to actually be an account combiner.

I have an account on lemmynsfw.com and an account on lemmy.world, and rather than basically letting me switch between the nsfw set of settings and communities and my normal set like other lemmy apps and reddit apps, it combines both sets of communities into one view which really isn’t ideal.

I get that this is set up differently on backend a little bit, but it would be nice if this was done more like other apps, or at least had a way to set it up like that.

I have the opposite experience with nsfw, it seems like the account switcher works super differently to the other lemmy apps, and I think it needs to be changed. It currently seems to combine accounts, rather than being a switcher.

Maybe something with the lemmy v18 update? I hear it’s changed some backend stuff pretty seriously and it may take a day for it to get sorted out.

Get a 400mm ratrig lol
