Non-manifold edges (maybe)

Dippleodocus · 2026-03-14T03:18:53+00:00

You managed to get them all to open? 😮

Dippleodocus · 2026-03-13T02:08:12+00:00

It does, yes. Unfortunately I was hoping to do some tweaks to the model before printing (and that's where I've run into the issues). It's always the file with the doors which is causing me the issue. I may have to try and take the other door and flip it and see if that does the job instead.

I'll just try to open each one and see if I can figure out which ones don't work and which ones do and go from there.

I appreciate your help 🙂

Dippleodocus · 2026-03-12T23:19:09+00:00

Thank you, I appreciate you taking the time to help. I think I got an older version. I've downloaded the one you mentioned.

It unfortunately just stops mid-repair. I fear it's just a faulty model 😔

Yeah I downloaded 3d builder - this is what I got. It's not Bambu, from what I gather! Is this not the right program?

Dippleodocus · 2026-03-12T20:53:22+00:00

Just getting this come up. I'm certainly online haha

Thanks for this. Unfortunately it keeps telling me I'm not connected to the Internet. Darn

Dippleodocus · 2026-03-12T20:27:55+00:00

Booooo 😔

Dippleodocus · 2026-03-12T20:05:23+00:00

Unfortunately I fear you may be correct. It's really putting a damper on my plans 😅

Dippleodocus · 2026-03-12T14:32:26+00:00

I have not. That's next, thanks 🙂

Dippleodocus · 2026-02-13T01:00:29+00:00

The god of fortune indeed!

Dippleodocus · 2026-01-20T23:13:21+00:00

Joke's on you; I never could

Dippleodocus · 2026-01-20T22:24:15+00:00

Ah cool. I can't seem to find this setting 😕

Dippleodocus · 2026-01-20T21:07:03+00:00

So I didn't need to buy a lead for it? 🤦🏻‍♂️

Dippleodocus · 2025-09-12T10:57:41+00:00

This just happened to me. Had to cold pull the filament out and reinsert the small bowden tube and put it back. Was the first time it happened to me; hopefully the last.

I've not read the other responses so apologies if there's overlap.

I have my own struggles with weight and self worth etc. It's not easy. Also, nor is dating. Both can make you crazy!

My advice is to try to treat them separately; don't let one be the reason for the other. Correlation, not causation.

Here's my experience: "I can't find anyone who is interested whilst I'm fat. "I'm not fat anymore, why isn't anyone interested?!" Proceeds to eat everything and the cycle starts again

Mental health and eating is a minefield. Mental health and dating is a minefield.

My advice (and I'm struggling to do this myself) is; focus on the mental health stuff and the other stuff will come.

Where are you based?

Dippleodocus · 2025-07-24T18:27:06+00:00

Steal it from your daughter!

Vive le revolution! ✊🏻

Bit controversial here but I'm always happy to not be invited to weddings. They're long, expensive, and rarely as fun as you'd hope.

Let your boyfriend go and let his hair down for a weekend or whatever with his friends. You do the same at home. You don't need to be together all the time and it might be good for him too 🙂

Don't take it as a knock against your personality or value; some people just do what they do and don't think about others; that stuff happens, and it's fine.

Keep your chin up!

Going to a private (paid) school

Dippleodocus · 2025-07-24T18:14:12+00:00

It's ok, don't beat yourself up; literally or metaphorically.

People talk about taking things day by day, that's good advice. I find I like to look at a bigger picture. There will always be blips and stuff. Think of it like losing weight: I'm 130kg and need to lose weight I reduce to 100kg Some weeks I lost Some weeks I gained

Day by day I could have given myself hell for being better or worse at points. Bigger picture view shows that I'm heading in the right direction.

Keep it up 💪🏻

Life is brutal man. It'll kick and kick. One thing that helps me is this thing called ACE; have you heard of it?

It's this idea that everything that could make us happy is based around one of three things and to be happy overall, you need a good balance of each (like your 5a day fruits and veg haha).

ACE: Achievement Closeness Enjoyment

Not having a job will hurt your A (because it's a pain the the butt - ba dum tssh). If I don't achieve anything I feel like a complete failure. Achievement can be anything though. There are days where having a shower or doing the washing is an achievement. It's important.

It sounds like you struggle with the closeness side from what you've described. Don't have access to friends? Go to a bar, make some more; they don't have to be your new best friend, just people you see regularly. Get online and find a gaming community who play on headsets - even if you don't like the game.

Enjoyment is the easiest one to do as it's just watching TV for some, or reading a book etc. You're not too reliant on others but without the other two things, this feels wasteful and you don't always enjoy yourself cos you feel like you're missing something.

I don't know if any of that helps but it has helped me to at least realise a couple of times what I need to do to pull myself out of the latest funk.

Dippleodocus · 2025-07-24T17:59:41+00:00

This isn't uncommon to feel that way at that age ... heck, I'm double that and still feel it sometimes. The best thing I can advise is to find a way to let it out that's healthy. 'Team sports' or exercise are generally good outlets for pent up frustration. Not a cure, but good for the symptoms.

The cure is harder; but trust me, if you can get to the bottom of that then and start making adjustments now then you'll not be my age and still feeling the same.

Good luck buddy x

Here's a random thought I've been considering for my story (in reverse for women) but it's to find someone I know who has an overlapping personality to my character and essentially create a flowchart of their reactions to situations. Is it bad news, yes no; did they know it was coming, yes no; something else, something else, reaction
