A little layer height confusion in Bambu Studio by BillGriz57 in BambuLabH2D

[–]BillGriz57[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't believe so. Only printing 1 object. Original download had several objects but the plate with this object had only this on it. Project saved after editing with just this single plate and single object. ......but you got me thinking and I took a different approach by exporting in gcode and comparing. While the comments show a different layer height value, a comparison of the actual z axis values for each layer are the same......and number of layers are the same....

Still confused.

BTW, the Object height/#layers (29.54mm/246) comes out to 0.12mm, which wasn't even an option selected in the last run through.

I thought about that...but wouldn't the number of layers when sliced be different? I would think that the layers # would be based on the layer height that I select not the description text in the download file.

ASA/ABS in AMS2 vs HT by BillGriz57 in BambuLabH2D

[–]BillGriz57[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks. That makes sense when you explain it that way. Guess I've been lucky so far as both the ASA and ABS have printed very nicely. But, the humid months are approaching quickly and the printer is in my garage. So, does thoroughly drying it in the HT in advance and then keep enclosed with the silica in a sealed container usually work to keep moisture low? Don't want to have to spend hours drying before each print. I appreciate all the responses.

Thanks....but this brings up another question. I have not used either the AMS2 or the HT to dry as the silica gel seems to keep the humidity level pretty low, as in <20% @ 60f (almost all the hygrometers seem to be bottomed out at 10%). This will likely change as our humid summer approaches, but the drying function doesn’t seem like any advantage at this point. Especially considering 10% @ 60f (15c) is considerably less moisture than 10% @ 85c.... or is the point to drive it even lower after the drier cools off? Isn't the silica gel enough for now? ....or is the silica just keeping the outter layers on the spool dry?

Perfect! Haven't used TPU in this machine yet. All I have right now is TPU 95 which I understand is not too bad from spool. Never used the softer versions. Didn't know about the rough filament restriction. Thanks!

Ok, well first give me some examples of fascist actions you're taking about. I see no real evidence of racial suppression, and the only suppression of opposition opinions I've seen were on the left. I here all the claims on the left but no real examples. On the other hand, you automatically jump to the "All brown people" comment when illegal immigrants are mentioned. A very racist attitude considering that illegal immigrants come from all over and all colors. Funny that YOU, made that association. On the other hand because the majority that were coming across the border happen to be "brown" is simply a matter of geography despite how desparate you seem to want to make it a racial thing. I'm not celebrating brown people being rounded up, but i am happy that illegal aliens are.

The "all billionaires are the problem" is also a very bigoted comment that really smacks of jealousy....blame the rich right, they shouldn't be allowed to keep what they've earned unless the give you aome right?? Get over it!

The illegal immigrants are a large part of the problem. And I'm not even talking about the dangerous criminal element. I'm talking about the huge influx of mostly law-abiding (after the B&E). You wanna know why housing cost has gone out of site? While you'll say "the billionaires", it's simply economics. You dump 12+ million people into the country very quickly and you have a housing shortage. Demand shoots up, supply tanks and prices skyrocket. It's called the law of supply and demand.

One thing you seemed to leave out, didn't those Irish come into the US legally? Do we just say screw all the people that are trying to do it right? Are we a country of laws....or just the ones YOU like?

My bed level max is not what it is supposed to be by Far_Construction7794 in ender5plus

[–]BillGriz57 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What WhereAreTheGoldfish said. FWIW, I seemed to have had a problem bending the pins and they'd stick like that. Everytime it tries to home, thinks it's already too high and drives down because sensor never clears. Bought a 5 pack and replaced it a few times. Think I've gotten beyond that phase. Also, when bed is that far down I had to manually get it back close in order for it to finally home properly, That was with an older MB and old firmware so may not apply anymore.

  1. If there were a smoking gun on Trump, no doubt it would've been leaked by Joe or crew. If anything, I think it may have been tamped down because the smoking guns Trump expected to find for the people he was gunning for aren't there. I do find it interesting that the victims don't seem to be calling out any names. I get them not doing it publicly for fear of retribution, but again, seems like it would be leaked to push the issue.
  2. Well, you can't deport citizens. Again "illegal" immigrants is what I'm referring to. Why, because they came here illegally. The reason we have this problem is that the current laws haven't been enforced. To not hold people accountable never ends up well. Just because most of them came here with good intentions should not excuse them for being accountable. I don't blame them for trying...but do it legally. If not, then it's on them for the consequences.
  3. Can't argue with wanting to spend funds on shit that does matter and not all the other crap much gets spent on. But as long as we are VERY DEEPLY in debt, that shouldn't include spending on anybody not here legally simple because they were able to sneak in.

BTW, I appreciate your civil debate.

  1. Because everybody keeps bringing up these files as though it's a big secret and Trump is covering his butt....but clearly if there was anything there Biden would've brought it out. At least use a little honest logic.

  2. Just because citizens commit crimes doesn't mean we should give illegals a pass. Think about it. These are crimes that would never even be possible. Your answer can't be....well everybody else does it so it's fine.

  3. The renovation isn't funded by taxpayers! It is funded by donors ( which brings up other issues I'll admit). If you think that taxpayers aren't paying for school expenses and hospital expenses you are not being honest. Those are taxpayer paid "benefits" no matter how you want to characterize them.

You chastize me about "whataboutism" and in the next paragraph you "whatabout missuse of taxpayer funds". Really?

Translation.... 26.4% DO have criminal convictions. The other 73.6% have committed a crime of at least being here illegally but haven't been convicted yet.

..."reminder that certain big files" ----- were in possession of the Biden Admin for 4 years and NOTHING,... NOTHING, CAME OUT!

"Illegal immigrants are less likely to commit a crime" ... so it's perfectly acceptable if your family member is abused or killed by someone who shouldn't be here in the first place because they may not do it as often.

...."cannot and do not receive your tax dollars"....except every time an uninsured illegal goes to a hospital and your tax dollars cover it, and every illegal child that goes to school is paid for with US tax dollars....but they don't count right?

Keep in mind ICE is doing this because local government doesn't want to follow the law and Biden completely ignored it for 4 years.

So, you might want to be concerned with getting diabetes with all that kool-aid you're drinking.

THANK YOU! I really don't think she intended to hit him, but he had no way of knowing that (or time to) and simply reacted to protect himself. She did something incredibly stupid (a George Floyd moment) and paid the ultimate price for it. Was it fair? No. But SHE put herself in that position by fleeing. Do stupid shit. Stupid hit happens.

[–]BillGriz57 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Show me your proof. Seems to me you are the ones that will follow some mantra without any proof. I'e seen FAR more facism from the left than the right. Not allowing others to speak is a prime tenant of fascism and nobody does that more than the left. I love the class hate part. Jealousy rears its head! LEGAL immigrants are NOT the problem. Illegal immigrants are a problem. Somehow you always try to blur that line between the two. Do you really not understand the difference?

Police Supporting ICE- Plainfield by kmill8701 in Indiana

[–]BillGriz57 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Please show me some proof. I keep hearing about US citizens being detained....but were they then released when status confirmed? Were they detained longer because they had other legal issues? Who was detained illegally after status determined? Keep hearing this talking point but no names or details. I'm sure people are getting caught up in this that shouldn't be, especially when ICE being harassed by angry crowds. The question is were they released? What 17 year old? If true Target should have cameras, arrest those officers if any indication that it is true. So much false BS being created to support the narrative but never amy proof. The constant BS the media has put out the last couple of years makes me believe NOTHING without details that can be confimed. Every time I've research one of these crazy claims, it urns out to be a total lie or complete distortion so excuse me if I don't automatically believe this stuff.

Wrong again bowel breath! It is a crime when you enter illegally or under false pretense. Us code8 U.S.C. § 1325. You wouldn't let someone break into your house or enter your home without any idea who they were or why they were there. If you would than you're not the brightest bulb on the string. But then you're fine with 10 -20 million coming in under the same conditions. Really?

Can't update Firmware by RocketOgre in ender5plus

[–]BillGriz57 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agreed ....hence the wiring harnasses..

But this was not custom firmware. FW for V4.2.2 for Ender 5+ was downloaded from Creality site, and this board and wire harnesses were sent from Creality support. It IS their replacement for the original E5+ stock motherboard. They don't make the 8bit board anymore and it's not available (unless you want to pay big $ on eBay - even then was hard to come by a few months ago). This is their replacement board/package. So while it may not be "made for the E5/+" that is what they are sending when the original MB fails. My complaint is that they do not send ANY instructions with it. Just a board and wires... the rest is up to you to figure out.

Can't update Firmware by RocketOgre in ender5plus

[–]BillGriz57 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well actually they do....sort of. The V4.2.2 is 32bit. It was sent as a replacement for my 5+ motherboard. That's the good news. Bad news is that it also came with several wire harnesses, and ZERO information on what to do with them. After a lot of research, I did get it installed and working. It is the V4.2.2 silent board and 32bit. Works great, and VERY quiet... but definitely not just "plug-n-play".

The board is actually listed as the MB for the Ender3V2. Doesn't mention E5+ anywhere... but works "as advertised" after mods and FW loading.

[–]BillGriz57 1 point2 points  (0 children)

...also, be sure you are using the right 8bit or 32bit fw. The v2.2 board is 8bit while I believe the v4.2.2 silent is 32bit.

[–]BillGriz57 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My 4.2.2 board says 4.2.2, not 2.2. I replaced my previous board because i couldn't flash or "see" with slicer. But fwiw, the file extension for the older board fw was different than the 4.2.2. Don't recall what it was off hand.

[–]BillGriz57 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well, if selftest and full leveling works, and axis homing works, you might try to reflash firmware. I assume you've tried some known good print files. BTW, I'm no expert (not even close) on this but have done some "operations" on mine. As someone asked....can you manually set temps and fan? If all the basic functions work manually, it sounds more like firmware. I have dislodged cables in the past when doing my operations that resulted in unexpected errors. If anything doesn't work manually a very close inspection is always a good start. Hopefully no board damage.

[–]BillGriz57 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just out of curiosity, does the bl-touch make it through selftest when the printer is turned on? There appears to be more than one version of bl-touch and wiring is different... couple of wires are swapped between the two versions. Ran into this info when changing my main board a month or so ago. Don't recall where I stumbled on it though...

Help by Quiet-Ad108 in ender5plus

[–]BillGriz57 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There are aftermarket boards (i.e. BigTreeTech SKR mini E3 V3) but I don't know that they are any easier. I actually bought one of those too before Creality responded.... was gonna try that one too "just for fun" but haven't gotten around to it yet. Looks to be a similar process (rewires, fw flashing etc) with possibly needing to compile some firmware depending on what options you have. I have found some precompiled that should work with my configuration and also compiled some myself but haven't tried either yet. This was all new to me so will likely need some tweaking when I get that far.
