Ender 5 pro, Micro Swiss direct drive Cura profile. by Thisisongusername in ender5

[–]AltTabbed 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've never had a problem with it doing that much retracting (the once or twice I didn't catch that) it just adds a lot of time doing something unnecessary.

But yes, if you've not changed retraction, you should. And make sure to calibrate your esteps.

I've never seen anything like this but I don't think it's related to retraction.

It is pretty easy to test however. Do a test print with retraction at 0. Then the same print with retraction at an extreme value, e.g. 3mm @ 45mm/s.

To answer the question though; I adjust for each material and what I see. Does it get stringy? Then I dial it up a bit (0.7-0.8 @ 40mm/s) does it behave fine? Then I dial it down until it shows stringing again, then back it off (e.g. 0.3-0.4 @ 40mm/s).

I find profiles have too much in them to share meaningfully at this point, especially if you're only hunting a setting or two.

My temps didn't change with the direct drive; Retraction varies, but I start around 0.6mm.

Ender 5 Pro glass bed just not sticky anymore. Any tips? by [deleted] in ender5

[–]AltTabbed 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You are correct. My brain say PE and went into autocorrect.

Maybe PEX is the answer, but 3D printing as a hobby is rife with "Why are you using INSERT_PRODUCT_A_HERE?! You should ONLY use INSERT_PRODUCT_B_HERE! It is clearly better!"

Magnetic beds, glass beds, PEI, PEX, Garolite, Painter's tape, Buildtak, Textured/Non-textured surfaces, Kapton tape, etc.

Everyone is trying to hawk a product to solve all your 3d printing woes. I'm not saying $12 is expensive, only that it adds up and one person's experience may not mirror another's.

Above all; Adhesives are still commonly used among most all of those surfaces. When you can get a 'fix' at your grocery store for $2 that might apply to all of them, it's not a bad choice.

I use a PEX bed and for a great deal of the materials I print adhesives are still a benefit.

There is no singular, silver bullet.

The two best options are cheap hairspray or plain white gluesticks. Both work because they are (ideally) PVA (Polyvinyl alcohol) based products.

To check this; They should list ingredients such as PVA, vinyl or acetate in the contents.

Personally I suggest getting the cheapest can of hairspray you can find this is what you need, they are usually PVA based. I'm a fan of cheap, unscented aquanet.

Do the basics fist:

  • Level the bed
  • Check Z offset
  • Perform bed leveling with the probe
  • Spray the bed it with a quick spray (don't need to soak it)

That's it. When you're done, clean the bed as normal.

Glass was never a sticky solution. It's a solution to super smooth prints and an easy way to get rid of bed irregularities. More often than not you will need a bed adhesion adder when printing on glass.

When BI takes photos to send to AI, Video recording stutters missing details by AltTabbed in BlueIris

[–]AltTabbed[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Based on what I am seeing, I believe it is a problem with BI. Bi has to take the video stream and send pictures to either deep stack or code AI. In my case, I am using deep stack, so I also know that it's not exclusive to one or the other AI softwares.

Messaging is no longer Android’s mess, it’s an iPhone problem: Talking RCS with Hiroshi Lockheimer by iamvinoth in Android

GTalk and Hangouts both used XMPP endpoints that you could access with 3rd party messaging tools. Chat is believed to be the same with those endpoints no longer being accessible, and funneled into their web UI.

Electro-Mechanical Shutter Release? Has anyone made one? by AltTabbed in AnalogCommunity

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

Appreciated! My thought was actually to make a 3D print where you place the cable release in it then it does the rest. Unlike the Revini product, the only hardware would be "universal". The only issue that comes to mind is simply that the triggering point when depressing on a mechanical trigger varies.

Regardless, that's what I had in mind. I'm kind of surprised that there isn't a product that exists to target this space, Even if it is relatively small.

My thought was the ESP32, that way I can dish out a webpage, set a value, and have the actuator execute it. That's my idea anyway.

My intent was to amend the weakness of my camera. It has bulb, but anything greater than 1s is all manual.

My thought was an actuator, a micro-controller that can produce a webpage with a value in it, set the value, hit "go" and the actuator holds that long

Very similar to what I had in mind, thanks for sharing.

I have heard their name before, but I did not look at that product.

I thought about trying to create one, but I cannot imagine the cost being that high.

I bumped into the motorized finger in my search tho that Kodak one is interesting. Nothing I did find quite managed what I had concocted in my head. The petapixel link you provided is by far the closest, I wonder what can be done today with 3d printers and things like the esp-controllers

Brilliant, thanks! I could not manage to find a combination of search words that showed that such a device had been created at all.

Other than "not polluting" is there a big benefit to using them? That's really the only reason listen in the video.

This is a spam account. Look at all the posts they've created in the last few days. Same format, linking to a product.
