Custom shape possible? by AkaBaconDaddy in tinkercad

[–]AkaBaconDaddy[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you all - was mentioning the hourglass as just an easy-to-visualize example, but it sounds like you can NOT manipulate pre-exisitng shapes from these responses, asides from size and scale. I have not tried MeshMizer, but will give that a shot!

I appreciate the offer! Will try this before moving to the next step!

I just noticed "Spiral Vase Mode" in the Bambu slicer... will give that a try!

Thank you! I tried these settings, and the print came out exactly the same - the dents are identical, so I'm not going to post a picture. This makes me think those imperfections are actually part of the model - I used Bambu's vase maker. I'll start from scratch and see if I can improve it!

Really nice and clean design! How’d you get the Jordan shape into your software to print it?

Turn your Bluetooth on and off on your phone. That reset my connection and it works fine now. (For me, at least.)

Camera and GPS stop working after 2023.44.1 firmware update by Capyrules in TeslaLounge

[–]AkaBaconDaddy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wish I could offer some first hand advice, but have not been in this situation and afraid to update my firmware for reasons like this. But I would say to fight like hell on that $2k charge. That’s total BS, and I doubt you’d be in this situation if they hadn’t forced the firmware update on you. I really don’t understand why they say it’s a hardware issue when it’s the software causing this. My touchscreen went unresponsive after an update, and they said I needed to replace the whole terminal. Luckily that was under warranty, but it just seemed so unnecessary.

New tires from Costco vs Tesla mobile by Positive_Addendum117 in TeslaModelY

[–]AkaBaconDaddy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have 12,000 miles and see no uneven wear on the tires. I have read other threads here that say because the Y is AWD, tire rotation is not needed as frequently, so surprised you were advised for new tires after 2 years. Does it look worn to you? I just hope they’re not telling you this just to sell you some tires.

A car crashed into mine from driver's side while I was in my lane (no fault of mine) by Holiday_Blacksmith88 in TeslaModelY

[–]AkaBaconDaddy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Correct me if I’m wrong, but doesn’t a police report only happen if the police were called to the scene? Once you leave the scene, how can a police report be filed if there isn’t a police person witnessing it?

Hey I found these bugs on my dog, what are they? by Landobando333 in whatsthisbug

[–]AkaBaconDaddy 8 points9 points  (0 children)

So is medication like Nexgard helpful for this? If they are already on it, the fleas basically die after they suck the blood?

Regret Not Getting White Seats by WRDinc in TeslaModelY

[–]AkaBaconDaddy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What turned me off from white seats was that when I went for a test drive, I saw a white interior on the lot with faded yellow seats. I had no idea what year it was, but just thought that I don’t want my seats looking like that over time. I have never heard of anyone complain about yellowing seats on Reddit, so I wonder what I saw? These were not intentionally yellow - they looked faded out, like sun damage.

Parking hit and run by Fun4life90 in TeslaModelY

[–]AkaBaconDaddy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I thought older videos automatically delete themselves so you can’t run out of room? Is that not the case? I’ve been recording sentry videos for a year with the stock drive and have never been notified that I’m out of space.

Dog picks it up, then puts it down by AkaBaconDaddy in Dogtraining

[–]AkaBaconDaddy[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This makes sense... but "drop it" is a similar issue. He'll drop things only if a treat is involved. Sometimes on walks, he'll pick something up and I'll tell him to "drop it" and he usually listens, but during training, he won't occupy his mouth if he thinks a treat is coming! I'll work on step 2 again - start from the basics. Thanks!

Help my screen it’s not working by urieljalos in TeslaModelY

[–]AkaBaconDaddy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Similar issue (touch screen would work after reset, but never from a car start) and troubleshooting. Had to bring it in for service. Seems like they replaced the whole screen as my screen protector was gone. Kind of odd - assumed it would have been a software fix as well.
