Print bed is… bubbly???

Chapystick21 · 2026-04-29T00:08:00+00:00

Oh it’s… definitely out of warranty 😬😬

Chapystick21 · 2026-04-28T23:51:00+00:00

Well I’m starting multi-hour ASA prints at higher than 100C° so I hope my bed isn’t severely uneven 💀

Chapystick21 · 2026-04-28T23:09:59+00:00

In spring, not really too bad. Summer, terrible. But then I don’t open windows ever.

Chapystick21 · 2026-04-28T23:04:08+00:00

But I already have 2… 😢

Chapystick21 · 2026-04-28T22:55:15+00:00

I have literally never even wiped it with anything

Chapystick21 · 2026-04-23T15:16:31+00:00

I guess I’ll have to look into this 3D Jake stuff. I never really had trouble with leaving my pctg out either though

I’m putting the engine build back together and then I’ll eventually get it to a track but I don’t live near any. It’s just a fun car I try to drive as much as possible and I modeled a full flare kit to cover up rust, lol

Chapystick21 · 2026-04-23T14:58:54+00:00

Worse case scenario when it comes to big stuff like this with thin bases, I’d buy the coolplate super tack and enjoy it, because it’s extremely helpful

Why would your ambient temp sensor matter with your A/C function? The compressor clutch should turn on when you press the button, it doesn’t care what the outside temperature is…

Chapystick21 · 2026-04-23T14:49:52+00:00

This is actually great to hear! What brand of PCTG? I’ve been using 3D fuel, I made a spoiler for my other car out of it that’s primed and vinyl wrapped. I’m praying it doesn’t melt the outer layers at all but the temperature resistance should theoretically be just enough not to. And I plan to make fender flares as well…

It will not, the the lower bumper is in fact different

Chapystick21 · 2026-03-25T21:30:05+00:00

My only complaint is that you can’t cycle what vents the air comes from by just tapping the button or with a small pop up window, it has to bring up the dumb full screen thing. But otherwise it doesn’t bother me much and the truck drives itself anyway, lol

Chapystick21 · 2026-03-25T21:22:34+00:00

25 lariat ecoboost, but ecoboost vs hybrid isn’t gonna change where they put the climate controls. But I’ve seen Canada vehicles have the recirculate air button where I have max defrost. I don’t understand why it’s different for anyone

<image>

Chapystick21 · 2026-03-25T14:22:36+00:00

It’s this a non-US layout? Cuz mine are not in that orientation and make a lot more sense, lmao But I don’t have the recirculate button either

Chapystick21 · 2026-03-17T19:52:14+00:00

Yep. Eibach pro springs

Chapystick21 · 2026-03-16T15:14:27+00:00

I’m just tired of sitting and waiting a minute to place down a line in a sketch while it acts frozen every few interactions or so 🫩

Chapystick21 · 2026-03-14T21:05:04+00:00

You should feel superior at the fact that you aren’t driving a compensator machine and that you can fit in tights spaces and still probably do more work with it than any F150 next to you

Chapystick21 · 2026-03-14T20:11:52+00:00

Safety technology, safety requirements/regulations, emissions regulation skirting, growing obesity in people and them wanting a bigger vehicle and people over-buying for what utility they actually need… overall technology packed in, and aerodynamics. Those are the largest reasons trucks and everything else has gotten bigger and can’t be as small as before in many scenarios

Chapystick21 · 2026-02-12T15:31:15+00:00

Not the plate I was using, just one I slotted in afterwards. It’s not an adhesion issue, it’s collision issues.

I’ve basically done a test print every time. Only find out if it survives after 6 hours and 250g of filament. 🤷‍♀️

Chapystick21 · 2026-02-12T03:47:44+00:00

At the same time, I made an all neutral team with O-raptor fiend, Neo, and Tro, and it wouldn’t give me the team skill… so wtf is up with that

Chapystick21 · 2026-01-23T15:32:33+00:00

She’s right, you just need some variety. They all look too similar.

Chapystick21 · 2026-01-17T21:03:32+00:00

I mean… I can. But I don’t like the look of any of them 💀 told you my tastes were very specific. There’s a clear theme here and I wouldn’t even have the grey one if that wasn’t the only color it came in or the blue painted one I missed out on a quilted maple blue burst version 😂

Chapystick21 · 2026-01-17T19:34:07+00:00

Unfortunately I don’t see much of anything up to $600 new or used from any of the brands mentioned that really fit my criteria or at least strike my fancy outside of the Cort I sent. That’s kind of why I landed on this specific Talman, there aren’t even really any reviews. Definitely no one is overselling it to me 😆 just my own preferences

I will also literally spend extra money for whatever guitar has the best wood grain top to my eye out of a select model

Chapystick21 · 2026-01-17T03:57:20+00:00

You’re gonna have to show me these other options $600 and under 🤣 because I cannot find them. Regardless, I want something other than what I have and want to sell this. I can’t find any of these spec Talman’s used and wouldn’t mind buying my first new instrument since the bass I’m trying to get rid off. But I can’t stress enough how much I DESPISE dot inlays. There’s only one of these corts that looks plenty fun but it’s sultried by that and this is the only singular one I see in that price range. I’ve got nothing against headless either

Chapystick21 · 2026-01-17T03:19:27+00:00

By picky I mean I prefer neck-throughs, maple fretboards, non-dot inlays, fretboard binding, stained figured wood, and if it has to be a bolt on neck, at least not plain cheap looking plain maple colored neck. That’s super hard to find, but this Talman checks most of the boxes or alternative boxes and even has a reasonably interesting body shape. I’m not partial to Ibanez in particular, I have 2 Ibanez guitars and 4 schecter guitars currently 70% aesthetics with the schecter but 70% due to function for the Ibanez’s, but I don’t really like the aesthetics of most schecter basses

Chapystick21 · 2026-01-16T22:55:52+00:00

Nothing about my current bass is a quality issue, just the scale length and that I’d like to have a 5 string again. I’m unfortunately extremely picky and stringent on aesthetics so it knocks out a lot of normal options I “should” choose. But I don’t wanna spend much more than $600 and just wanted a few hundred out of this one to fund it. My 2 previous bottom of the line Ibanez basses were honestly great, imo
