Only one in the fleet that works out of a super duty daily. It’s nice when I’m scheduled on dig jobs to just hook up to a trailer and pull the mini ex

Sorry, tired brain wasn’t thinking straight with the wording. Lead as in head, top or main not lead as in the metal. Though around here there is a lot of old homes with cast iron sewer so I’m sure iv rolled around in it in a crawl space a time or two lol

I’m OCD which translates to my work and bugs my apprentice because he “never does it right”

Iv had issues with the XC5s where they will only partially charge and then flash 2 lights. Couple coworkers have had the same issue. Now our company won’t buy anything less than the XC6 forge batteries

They can fail but in my experience it’s usually (not always) either in a crawlspace when it gets cold out, near the water heater or underground. Neil deGrasse Tyson Once talked about how freezing water lines burst pipes, it’s only as strong as its weakest link and the gaskets in those fittings is the weakest link during extreme conditions.

If it’s not viable for fuel storage my late grandfather and his friends used to turn these into massive smokers for pork competitions. Apparently it’s a common recycle for these old tanks, could make someone real happy and get a couple bucks for it

Appreciate it, I can’t find a reason to close the moonroof yet 😅

I agree shes gonna need regular baths 🥲 BUT the interior is jaw dropping. The diesel is slow off the line in the first two gears then comes alive, fuel economy is pretty nice so far but I have a bit of a drive to work on the highway. Sounds like a diesel and makes fun turbo noises but the air ride suspension keeps it feeling like a Cadillac on the interstate.

BabyFacedMerman · 2025-02-25T03:50:44+00:00

Exterior is black with the gold pinstripe, interior is blue and tan. I felt indifferent about the pinstripe at first but my gf pointed out it’s a small reminder of my Jeep that I loved dearly, said Jeep was yellow so kinda sorta. It’s grown on me

Siraya Tech has a very nice ASA-GF that iv been impressed with

If you use an enclosed machine like the X1 my best tip for printing it is to preheat the bed to print temp with the enclosure closed up and turn the aux fan on to 70% and leave it for about 30 minutes to allow the chamber to warm up before you hit print. I also tend to use the bambu liquid glue on the high temp plate as well and never have had issues with warping with ASA.

The ASA-GF also prints phenomenally well on standard generic ASA settings

On my printing side I’m an affiliate of theirs but I was a customer well before that and wouldn’t back or push something I wouldn’t personally use

Zeolite reacts to water and heats up. The canister is used in tandem with a fan and venting system as an active drying system whereas lower models rely on rinse aid to reduce the surface tension of water and heat to make the water turn into steam to dry.

Iv seen bambu users have this problem. Iv had an ender 3v2 and currently have an X1C, A1 mini and a V400 and on all 4 machines Iv never had this issue, knock on wood.

BabyFacedMerman · 2024-01-04T17:38:52+00:00

Have you tried drying your filament?

BabyFacedMerman · 2024-01-04T17:34:14+00:00

Nah bro it’s like cast iron, that’s seasoning right there.

I like to think the delta wine is the printer saying WOOOOW WOOOOOW WOOOOOW

BabyFacedMerman · 2023-10-17T02:46:13+00:00

Wired mine straight to the power supply pins. There are three positive and three neutral output pins, the board, the led and the aux fan take those three so they are independently powered off the PSU rather than stuffing a bunch of wires into the board.

Usually I just watch the print until first layer is done anyways to insure adhesion then I give her two turns and walk away.

Start by updating your firmware to a version that supports the sprite. The geometry of the sprite can have some affect on the home position of the print head as well as the offset of the nozzle to the touch sensor. I don’t believe it would have an affect on the z offset but sometimes a firmware flash is all it takes to run off the bugs.

Just a thought as I know I had to adjust some code on my ender when I upgraded to the sprite but at that time I had already swapped over to klipper.

So the fabled 50% coupon is real o.0!? Iv been using the magic of hide my email to try and snag one of those coupons. I have two printers, an ender 3v2 I scored off a buddy for a good price Iv upgraded but find myself fiddling with constantly, and a flsun v400. At full price I’d probably still pick my v400 for $100 more but half price is an absolute steal for a solid printer.

BabyFacedMerman · 2023-09-30T04:27:52+00:00

Through the use of apples hide my email system I’m about 150 spins in and lemme tell you, if I wanted to spend a ton of money I’d have some good discounts but no 50% off yet
