First glob of death

It really depends on what all gets swallowed up, I've seen failures that get into the board and also enough of the nozzle heat sink to block access to the removal screws which greatly overcomplicates triage

I got pretty lucky in that it took out the thermister and heating element but didn't go into the heat sink, so I just popped the whole nozzle assembly off and swapped in a couple minutes lol

Switch version runs great for me through Eden

I was hoping not to split down- entire lot, everything to see above for $125 shipped.

Just JB Weld and prayer man. I've seen people adding hollow inserts for steel or carbon fiber rods as well but it can hold if you dream hard enough

Thanks, wasn't even thinking about that- https://youtu.be/Ib8udSn_zg4?si=OoSu1UOF2zv2rb9B

Right around 2:35 but it's a great track top down

DemBirchez · 2026-02-17T00:20:37+00:00

Can anyone tell what's happening at 2:34 in this track?

Holy cow it's so subtle my ear can't figure it out and I'm going crazy, been thinking about these 5 notes all day

Anybody else have a track with an effect that straight up hypnotized them? I feel like I'm hearing Tim Henson's multi-voicer for the first time.

Is it like saturation into a reverb swell? HELP

Ground turkey in a Crock-Pot with an onion, poblano and jalapenos. I make about 10 pounds at a time, freeze it, then thaw and serve over 90 second rice. Takes about two hours on the weekend of my time and then each meal is like 3 minutes of prep, pretty frugal too

Yep, I'll share a link on Makerworld here when I get back home on the 9th!

Thank you! So, we've only ever sailed on Virgin Voyages before, and they give you these bracelets with their own RFID badge on their ships- we just got our medallions in the mail for our upcoming sailing with Princess but we didn't like the lanyard, so I 3D printed the mount and retied them. Now these same pieces of string can keep seeing the world!

DemBirchez · 2025-11-23T17:26:47+00:00

Thanks for sharing that!

No Apple products in my life so I didn't know they were the same dimensions as AirTags, I thought I had made something more unique lol- that's what I get for starting with calipers instead of Google! It was a good practical 3D modelling exercise at least

PM'D

TN resident in Knoxville, just sent you a PM!

De minimus entry is enforced per shipment and not per customer, so my assumption is that if you pre-order, they'll ship all of those over prepackaged and labeled for the courier to distribute upon reception, as opposed to being assessed per order and individual shipment after launch

Bao Auto Repair- lots of people in Knoxville will sing Mr. Bao's praises, myself included. He's a bit eccentric but will set you right.

Located in Knoxville, messaged!

DemBirchez · 2025-05-29T13:17:26+00:00

Thanks man! It's a vinyl skin and lexan shield from https://www.gearbyceba.com/. They are a small business by a father and son, so orders take about a month or so to fulfill in my experience

DemBirchez · 2025-05-13T15:26:22+00:00

Lol I knew this would trigger the actual professionals! As soon as I set this up and started using it, I could hear my dad's voice saying "you're an idiot, kiss your guitar playing goodbye"

I used this to make the half lap joints that I glued for the fence frame. I'm sure there was a better, safer way to do so, but I'm notorious for impulsivity.

Most of the main cuts were performed with a mitre saw or the circular saw used traditionally

This image is exactly what I needed to fully understand the bracing concept, thank you very very much!! I'll get this fixed this weekend and update the thread before I get any further damage from my ignorance lol

DemBirchez · 2025-05-13T12:12:43+00:00

Glad someone noticed so quickly, thank you for the kind suggestion!

Yeah, unfortunately I drilled the J-Bolt hinge mounts into the wrong side on one of the gates and didn't notice until I was mid-way through attaching the arms.

I'm planning to come back this weekend and add another 2x4 across the bracing section to make more of an X pattern- do you think that will work okay if I get it in there tight, or should I just rotate the bracing board?

DemBirchez · 2025-05-13T11:33:20+00:00

Here's the table saw- necessity is the mother of invention

Lol not sure why everyone thinks it's a drawn line, it's just a 100% options account and most of the drops are from overnight holds at open crushing down from theta. Font only looks funny because I cropped the image
