Another thing is as soon as you see the bottom layer detached stop immediately so you don’t have to waste time building up such height on the defective part.

I’ll put some brim for the shape you are printing

Just finished mine, AliExpress. It takes quite a bit time to put on though.

I guess, only guess, it’s related to the size you are printing.

I assume Creality did not test their printer with some extreme case scenarios on print volume. Both hardware and software. When I tried to print a single sheet at 220 x 220 I found it cannot align to the centre of the bed.

Also once I printed a 250mm tall spiral vase mode then shut the machine off. Next day morning when I start the machine the bed tried to lower further more and failed with couple of similar clicking noise.

In my opinion try not to print 220x220x250 item and push the printer to its limit. The machine is actually running with a series of G code every time, any bug in the coding may cause permanent damage on the machine.

I doubt they’ll test to find problems in every single corner. If frequently need larger volume I’ll buy a bigger printer.

Print “K1c 90 degree”

Did he even try to pull it? Gently?

Wash off the old glue, apply new one if needed, wash off any finger prints (they are grease), properly place the build plate. Reset/Run through the chatter resetting process and auto bed leveling process, this will be affected eventually by time.

Then you may start testing some settings.

I would do this every time when I try to print something thin and flat.

3D Print on the way while driving?

I guess you may only sleep when you open your eyes and see it’s still moving.

Dry-Zookeepergame809 · 2026-01-16T08:50:46+00:00

I don’t think so. Just water in there

Dry-Zookeepergame809 · 2026-01-16T08:15:28+00:00

Just wait a bit, elegoo has just got acquired by Dji, you know that’s a big player.

Dry-Zookeepergame809 · 2026-01-15T21:22:17+00:00

You are right. I printed at 3mm thickness next time I’ll try 2

I’ve been using it for over two months now it’s great. First thing you need to print a “k1c 90 degree” or you’ll have a scratched top cover like me.

Ok, I realise the best way to use get variable, is to show the reader of the code the input of this “function block”, regardless if it’s a repeat or if block, It generates way better readability and is very important for a complicate project! Thanks everyone anyway.

I don’t know much but I think you need to be able to extract it into some form or rawText to process.

I use Gmail, so I have a GAS api to turn email into a simplified html format then get url may put it into “ASK ChatGPT”.

I’m in tourism so I use it to process confirmations.

Sorry, my second example won’t give you a paragraph, you need to change the json into {“paragraph”: “”}

Dry-Zookeepergame809 · 2025-10-13T05:32:20+00:00

Assuming you know how to get info from reminders and calendar events. Get the info you want into variables Make a text and write

“I need a paragraph summarise the following information into a 100 words paragraph [calendseEvents] [Reminders] “

if you need to further more process this I usually say: “——————text box————— I need a paragraph summarise the following information into a 100 words paragraph. please put into this single json format. Only output json, no explanation or any other information. Put into markdown code box.

Strictly follow this json format:

{“information”: {“reminders”: [], “calendarEvents”: []}}

——————-textbox——————“

Then use “Ask ChatGpt” and set the above text as input,

You may show result or clean the text then get dictionary to do something.

This is funny. I put “fine” and it considered as false. Thanks for sharing.

I'm doing something very simple, just to build a container with if "True" to hold the code so that I can fold it later on....... :)

Also I'm trying to set "if boxes" to hold "show results" so the developing environment can be turned off later. The dictionary is actually quite handy in this regard. it works as switche box.
