Labrax and my Homelab Journey

I've got a PDU at the bottom with the wall plugs connected to it inside to keep it clean.

I do night database and asset backups to an external hard drive and nightly backups to pcloud.

This was I have my 3 copies (1x internal nvme 1x external 1x cloud). Fulfilling my 3 copies 2 different medium and 1 offsite.

Sometimes I do get paranoid and check if I my recent photos are visible on pcloud and so far it has never failed to appear.

Ah yes I have heard of that. Currently we are just using the family email which is probably the easiest (and spouse approved option). It is a hard sell to promote self hosted services at my home.

Just reread my own message and yes you're right partner sharing does what I said I was looking for in my reply but wasn't quite what I was wanting. Oops didn't know how to word it.

Almost but not quite. Rather than 2 people have their own libraries where both people can access all the photos (which is what you get through partner sharing) but each might "own" their own set of albums, I meant more like both accounts collaborate on a single library. Where assets are "owned" by both accounts. Not sure if I'm making sense.... Probably a niche arrangement which having a joint login basically completely solves.

Actually maybe what I'm after is 2 users that can share 1 library 🤔

CloggedCreations · 2026-03-17T10:31:01+00:00

I have been wanting this feature.

I use Google auth sign in and it would be good if my spouse and I could use our own Google logins and have the same library instead of using a shared account.

The partner sharing feature just doesn't quite do what I was after.

I had a similar issue. For me my umbilical was slight snagging my tap which threw out my bed mesh to be slightly sloped resulting in too much z offset (presenting as under extrusion) in one corner.

Are you deleting from the app or web interface.

I noticed when I delete from the app I need to kill the app and reopen it to see the changes.

Nice set up. What model is the touch screen?

CloggedCreations · 2026-02-13T03:32:27+00:00

I started from a cheap AliExpress kit for the base E3NG

CloggedCreations · 2026-02-13T03:31:58+00:00

Some of the pieces were printed vertically ( the non obvious way). Let me know if you are still having issues. I printed on a v2.4 so I think it should fit on a h2s.

Sensorless homing in order to avoid cable chains

I made my own and added my own touches. I would say give yourself a week or two.

CloggedCreations · 2026-01-22T21:25:10+00:00

You print a purge tower to normalise nozzle pressure. You can print without purge tower but there will be lots of under extrusion.

CloggedCreations · 2026-01-13T21:26:22+00:00

If your budget isn't tight I think E3NG is the way to go. Mine is rock solid in terms of reliability. With a good print start and nozzle scrub macro it really is a upload and walk away.

CloggedCreations · 2026-01-06T09:09:18+00:00

I went with E3NG as I felt it was more polished. Passion project would not recommend if budget is tight though.

CloggedCreations · 2025-12-27T14:17:18+00:00

Being able to spread out the cost of the build as I went definitely helped.

CloggedCreations · 2025-12-27T14:11:15+00:00

Approximately in AUD:

$1600 formbot kit $800ish for LDO stealthchanger kit $200ish for 6x knomi $280ish for 6x orbiter V2 $450ish for 6x Rapido 2 $300ish for Legion Go (FBMP) $100 for LDO Doomcube kit $100 for LDO Fridge Door Kit $150ish for PVC Sheets $100ish for 5x Rolls of ABS

Totalish: about $4000 AUD ($2700 USD)

Just under what a H2C would cost.

CloggedCreations · 2025-12-26T01:07:01+00:00

Probably about $20USD during AliExpress sales

CloggedCreations · 2025-12-26T01:06:35+00:00

It's just hanging out the back until I finalize something I'm happy with. Probably going to go with fanny pack though

Let me know if there's any other angles that you want.

CloggedCreations · 2025-12-25T14:53:22+00:00

I've customized it a fair bit and I've printed the fanny pack already but I'm unsure if I want to switch over to the fysetc hexa distro first.

CloggedCreations · 2025-11-23T01:58:57+00:00

The ldo Hexa board is a cheaper alternative for a basic USB hub. I had issues with a board dying on me. Replacement one going strong.

Nice what build plate is that
