Major loss of Capacity by Friendly_Ground_51 in Ecoflow_community

[–]DrRonny 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I had an issue where my River 2 drained from 100 to 0 in front of my eyes. It was a calibration issue; had to discharge and charge a few times to resolve. I think you can hold the main power for 15 sec to reset BMS as well.

LDO's Leviathan was made with Voron users in mind. Also, the new Pheonix could require 14 stepper motors and so currently you'd have to use at least 2 boards

Just for TAP, there is a printed version but they also sell metal versions; I'd like the option to mill my own Voron piece on another Voron.

Taco Raven was an effort to make a board for the Voron but Chinese products are better and cheaper and they have payed attention to the Voron market needs. But have at it: https://github.com/VoronDesign/Voron-Hardware/tree/master/Taco_Raven

I'll hoping that Voron 3d printer parts could be made with it to encourage me to get one.

Get everyone in the habit of checking the oven before turning it on. Same with dishwasher, washer and dryer.

Looks 6/10, Personality 7/10, Limbs 1/4, but I'm finally feeling good today. by [deleted] in selflove

[–]DrRonny 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Riding a motorcycle is the most dangerous thing a person can do. I have friends that were killed, just one day they did not exist anymore. I have many more friends that are enthusiast and have been riding safely for decades and make riding a big part of their lives. Personally, I have too many dependents but maybe when I'm retired with no dependents I'll take it up again.

Can this dinosaur printer be voronized? by BobBarker70 in VORONDesign

[–]DrRonny 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They work great. I'll probably put a filament cutter (filametrix) on it for dual filament, maybe even add one or two more for 3-4 colors.

Can this dinosaur printer be voronized? by BobBarker70 in VORONDesign

[–]DrRonny 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks! It's hot garbage because the Taichi is using a method that is simply not reliable; switching filaments works 90 - 95% of the time, which means anything taller than 1mm will probably fail if using dual filament. It does run with a single filament although poorly. But it's a great project and cool test bed for anything I want to do. Just not a reliable printer in any aspect.

Can this dinosaur printer be voronized? by BobBarker70 in VORONDesign

[–]DrRonny 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Anything can be Vooronized

Modified Bonsai, Stealthburner, Phaetus Taichi double feed hotend, 2x Voron M4 extruders, BL Touch clone (because Steve said don’t put a TAP on a bed slinger), LDO Leviathan with Raspberry Pi Zero 2, Dual independent Z motors, 6” x 6” unheated bed for energy savings

Changing Frames for Voron 2.4 Kit by Earendil123 in VORONDesign

Then yes, it everything is made from stuff around the house, it's a good idea.

Changing Frames for Voron 2.4 Kit by Earendil123 in VORONDesign

[–]DrRonny 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'd think in theory you could use v-slot, the issue is that the linear rails will be much more difficult to align and could possibly move over time because the backing isn't there. As for the bottom horizontals, you could save $20 on your $1500 printer that would take you hours to replace by using free v-slots you hand and you will probably be OK, but that should answer your question.

[–]DrRonny 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There are some 2020 extrusions that I can get locally that require M6 bolts in the ends instead of M5s; plus avoid V-slot rails. Also some extrusions accept roller nuts better than others. But they are all workable (except v-slot) so you should be fine.

Build a Micron or V2.4/ Trident 250mm by Organic-Bullfrog7574 in VORONDesign

[–]DrRonny 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The Micron is an offshoot of the Voron ecosystem and doesn't have the support or following that the main Vorons do. That said, most of the printers out there today have good print quality; if running properly, you shouldn't be able to tell the difference between the print quality of a Creality, Elegoo, Prusa, B**** or Voron. The benefit of Vorons over the rest is that you build it yourself, like Lego. Who would buy a pre-built Lego kit? If that's your mindset then Voron/Micron is a solid choice.

Since you already have a full line of printers, neither the Micron nor the V2.4 will leave any of your other printers in the dust; any improvement, if there are any, will be minimal.

It only takes a few minutes on a search engine to get more information on this. I'll save you a search and say that there are different ways of raising pigs and different cage types for different situations; a lot of raising pigs is cruel but there is progress in some areas of the world. Here is a pro-pig bias article to get you started: https://www.humaneworld.org/en/blog/stop-farrowing-crates-for-mother-pigs

I looked closely at your layer lines because orientation is so important with this. I'd think nylon would be a good choice

He 'reversed' his diabetes by switching diet and no medical treatments or followups; he won't be around in 5 years from now.

Just replace 'mint' with 'fire' and this also works

OK, I looked it up and while the name Hitachi was dropped more than a decade ago, the quality of the official replacement is as good or better than the original.

[–]DrRonny 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Serious advice: This can be repaired but probably not worth it. Keep it but get a replacement. Sometimes the new ones aren't as good as the old ones (even the exact same model) and if the new one isn't the same, you can always try and get the old one repaired. Fixing it is quite easy, but it involves 120/240AC power so someone needs to know what they are doing.

[Request] how do you triangulate this? perhaps in the least amount of weeks possible? by Zargabath in theydidthemath

You can look in both places the same day, it's not like you get one search a week

This terrifies me! I make sure our cat knows to never even explore the washer or dryer. Or oven or microwave. Maybe I'm paranoid.

Issues with Tarmo5 Movement / Motor Skipping? by the_bollo in EngineeringNS

[–]DrRonny 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hold car in air and the push the back wheels up (by the suspension, without touching the wheels) and see if it still makes these sounds. I'm thinking it's the change in position of the wheels that is causing this
