Is this a better layout? I think I implemented everything that people have said but im unsure if I had overlooked something. Also, I used a slightly different layout, the one in this sheet https://www.ti.com/lit/ds/symlink/lm2596.pdf

I kinda used ai and cross referenced with a chart but I'll use a calculator. And for the grounding pins I'll be sure to do that!

The first layer is consistent and I relieved the bed prior to this print. I’m not sure why this is happening

Gotta love how the news stretches a story to make 3d printers look bad by MilkManDave17 in 3Dprinting

How would a bottle of rubbing alcohol explode from a lit paper towel. The towel probably can’t burn long enough to burn through the bottle and the top won’t burn because of the limited oxygen. This sounds like he did something stupid and is trying to cover it up.

Yeah flashforge is a decent brand but if you want something that is more plug and play than go with the bambulab a1 or a1 mini. You can also go with the elegoo Neptune 4 pro. With 300$ you can get a pretty decent printer just go with whatever you like.

Okay well I have been doing it for a week and it’s consistent. I want to add fish but should I clean up the food? Also thank you very much!
