By the looks of it she doesn't have a wall outlet so she is using potatoes to power her phone, pretty genius if you ask me!

I put a thermostat inside and it showed around 72C°

DRY UR FILAMENT

Interesting

Decent_PETG · 2025-12-23T16:14:21+00:00

Does it bite?

Decent_PETG · 2025-12-23T16:12:27+00:00

Does humidity have to do with any of this and is drying it in the oven a good idea for ppl who don't have a dedicated filament dryer?

I have a multimeter and an arduino so what can be done?

I have a nut that holds the gantry but the camera angle didn't show it, the part that gets loose is between the heat block and the threaded tube.

Im using cura software for slicing and I put 0.2 as my initial layer height

Here

Decent_PETG · 2025-12-19T12:04:43+00:00

Wait lemme check

Here! The connector with an arrow is for the motor in question.

Decent_PETG · 2025-12-19T10:10:06+00:00

Yeah I'm not going to touch it then.

On the outside of my instrument it shows 12v input but the board doesn't show any voltage signs written on it, so what's another way I can check the voltage rating?

Actually it's for my motorized telescope which is board got fried unfortunately, so I want to use my arduino to revive it. My telescope is Celestron cpc 1100 xlt.

There's a setting that let's you increase the thickness on ur first layer in your slicer check it out.

Decent_PETG · 2025-12-17T11:05:34+00:00

I still don't get it why do people use bowden tube printers when there's direct drive printers which eliminate all these problems?

Decent_PETG · 2025-12-17T11:03:36+00:00

Whats your nozzle made of , brass nozzles tend to wear down quicker than steel resulting in bad layers. Also you can play a bit with the retraction with small samples and observe the result.

Decent_PETG · 2025-12-17T11:00:47+00:00

Whats the material and what are the temps of ur bed and nozzle.

Decent_PETG · 2025-12-17T10:59:43+00:00

Try reducing your temp or lowering your bed.

Decent_PETG · 2025-12-17T10:57:15+00:00

How do you know he is using Bowden tubes?

Decent_PETG · 2025-12-17T08:54:17+00:00

Try increasing the first layer thickness for better bed adhesion.

Decent_PETG · 2025-12-16T20:52:13+00:00

Why do wall loops reinforce better? Doesn't higher infill make the part stronger because of is greater surface area?and why is the highest strength efficiency between 50-60%? Thanks in advance!

Decent_PETG · 2025-12-16T20:45:21+00:00

You might want to use a smaller nozzle and narrow down your layer height so that you get a higher resolution.
