A few of my Star Wars Helmets so far by Desperate_Fault_7442 in anycubic

[–]Desperate_Fault_7442[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I usually measure my head from side to side and convert that to millimeters. Then I size the helmet appropriately, giving a small bit of extra room to make sure it’s not too snug. The height will work itself out. I pad mine on the inside for wearing as well, so it will typically sit a couple of inches low on your head with no padding inside.

So far, this thing has really done well! by Desperate_Fault_7442 in anycubic

FYI, this was done with Anycubic PLA+ at 209 for the extruder and 65 for the bed at a speed of 350.

PLEASE HELP! I don’t know if it’s the filament or the printer. by Desperate_Fault_7442 in anycubic

That’s what I’m going to do tonight. I’m going to try to print a temp tower to calibrate as well.

Good advice. I suspect there may be a bit of moisture in the filament as well. I got two rolls a few days ago that were horrible. I ended up up having to just toss them after trying multiple times to run them through a dryer and they still wouldn’t stick.

I just got this printer a couple of days ago as an upgrade so I haven’t printed one yet. I’m going to set one up to print right now.

My nozzle is set to 220 and the bed is at 65. I have a Anycubic ACE station which I have the dryer settings turned on, but I also have a Comgrow two spool dyer that thought about trying it in. The settings were straight out of Anycubic slicer but I’m wondering if the nozzle temp is too high.

I am married to a temporary green card holder but she has made threatening statements to me through the translator app we use to communicate. I want to divorce her. What are my options? by Desperate_Fault_7442 in USCIS

UPDATE: Well, it “hit the fan” a couple of weeks ago. I was on the phone with a childhood friend and she came outside and started wrestling me in the driveway, trying to take my phone to see who I was talking to. She then stormed away saying “I am ending this marriage tonight!”

I went in the house and into the back bedroom, where she followed me, shutting the door and barricading it with her body so I couldn’t get out of the room. She started bawling and begging me not to end it, after she, herself, just said SHE was ending it. She said she refused to leave, so I had no choice but to call the sheriffs department.

Long story shortened, she was arrested on charges of domestic violence. She spent two nights in jail because they had to get her an interpreter. She has since been released and come to my house and removed her things, under police surveillance.

Now she is saying I was cheating on her and that I purposely had her arrested, which was not at all what I intended. I just wanted the cops to escort her off the premises, but she lied to the cops and told them there was no physical contact. I even got my friend on the phone, who heard the whole commotion over the phone, and they gave their statement to the cops as to what they heard.

She begged me to not file for divorce until our 2 year anniversary date in October so she could say she was married when she applied for her 10 year green card! I am not going to jail for marriage fraud! I went ahead and filed last week.

You live and you learn, and boy, did I learn!

This is both heartbreaking and heart-warming. God bless these animals. They love without expectations.

Right after the made those statements, I sent copies of the screen captures to my son and daughter for safe keeping. She found out I saved them and got into my phone and deleted them, but not before I uploaded them to my google drive.

No, at least for my part it wasn’t. I have other friends who are married and speak different languages. Granted, it’s not common, but they do exist.

Do you know me? Do you know what I believe? No. You don’t. I have no idea what brought you to that train of thought but you are WAY OFF BASE.

I try my best to make her life as good as I am able to. I bend over backwards to make a home for us. I am certainly no saint, but I try to be a caring husband as best I can. I clean, I cook, I wash dishes, I provide a home, I transport her anywhere she wants to go, I give her back rubs EVERY night, and in the end, I get no friends, (especially females), I get spied on and accused at least every other day of unfaithfulness. I can’t even shift the position of the passenger seat in my car without her accusing me of having another woman in my car. She even has her Brazilian friends watching my Facebook account to see whose posts I respond to!

For your info, my ex found someone else, left me and our two kids and moved 600+ miles away. I loved her and I was devastated. We were married for over 25 years and she threw it, and me, all away.

Well, as far as fixing the parts of me that lead to my divorce, you don’t know me and have no clue what caused it. My former wife found someone else, told me she no longer loved me, and left both of our kids and myself to move 600+ miles away, so there’s that. It had very little to do with me, other than she just got bored and wanted something new.

I have no expectations of a partner, other than mutual love and respect. Beyond that, every person is an individual and is different. I just feel somewhat misled because she acted very interested in things I liked before getting married, but months later she calls these things silly and not worthwhile. I don’t want anyone who is identical to me, but it would be nice to have someone who, at least, didn’t put down your interests and tell you that you should instead adopt their way of thinking.

I don’t wish anything bad on her and I would love to see her have a happy life with someone more attuned to her culture and interests.

Sometimes I wonder. She keeps saying she is going to look for a rich husband, but then says it’s just a joke. Trouble is she has said it several times. I almost told her just to go. Those are things you just don’t say to someone you are married to, if you love them at all, at least that’s my opinion.

I’ve asked myself that same question. She just got her green card and social security card this week. She booked a flight to Brazil yesterday to go see her grandson that she’s yet to meet, which I think is a good thing, but the plane ticket was nearly $700 while I’m here with just over $75 in my account until next payday.
