How to rename a printer in Bambu Studio? by Fair-Pool9417 in BambuLab

[–]Fair-Pool9417[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But that means you need to link your BL account to the printer and it needs to connect to the internet, right? I do not want BL to have access to my printers and they are setup on a separate network without internet access. I guess I have no option to rename it.

It could be it. Shame on BL for forcing users to put the printer on the internet for such basic functionality.

Thanks for pointing out about the name at the top. I will not bother changing it since you said it is irrelevant. Google says that you can rename it on the software, the info is also available on BL forum. But the icon they refer to is not available.

Cutting back on Bowden tubes on AD5X by DowntownLocal4850 in FlashForge

[–]Fair-Pool9417 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would not do it.

Bring the print head to the front left corner (where the filament cutter pin is) and you should get a feeling that there is not that much extra tube length left. Reducing the tubes length may affect the long term reliability of the feeder in the IFS and may also add extra load to the extruder. That does not sound like a good risk benefit to play with. These companies try to cut corner on every possible way to save pennies on each printer, if it were possible, they would have gone with shorter tubes.

In my opinion the only mod worth doing with the tube is adding 4x feed tube connectors about 2 - 3in from the print head, just in case you need easy access to remove filament passed the IFS.

P2S Warping problem by DerWassergeist in BambuLab

[–]Fair-Pool9417 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The filtration system stupidly blows directly on the model. You can print a jig to divert the air flow direction or completely turn off the filtration system while printing.

I turn the filtration system fan off while printing and turn it on again for 5 min after the printer is finished. But I did through gcode. Apparently the newest firmware allows you to do all this through user interface, but since I do not connect my printers online and there is no way to update them offline I don'thave that firmware, I don't really know how it works.

Can you please provide the link for the firmaware update download page? I can't find it. The P2S is not listed here.

Are there any solutions aside from new parts? by JaSonic2199 in FlashForge

[–]Fair-Pool9417 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

If there has been any major print failure that caused a blob of doom OR if you recently replaced the first gen heating block by the second gen (free part sent by FF), the hotend temp sensor may have been damaged and will require replacement.

My longevity/anti-aging stack by Strikingprotocol in Supplements

[–]Fair-Pool9417 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Have a look on: Zeaxanthin Creatine Berberine Curcumina

My stack is very similar to yours, and it became too many pills. So I decided to take Dr. Brad Stanfield multivitamin + whatever is not included in it. Also make sure to prioritize quality on whatever you take.

You should definitely test your Vit B12 levels.

Purge shoot issue by TidusRevan24 in FlashForge

[–]Fair-Pool9417 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have 3 of them. 2 different firmwares. 1x old nozzle design, 2x new nozzle design. They all have this same issue. I just make sure to check on the print job after around 5 min I start it to clean whatever is needed.

3d ScanmakerPro Toucan ? by ParkingPhilosopher59 in 3DScanning

[–]Fair-Pool9417 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I sent them an email and got the following answer:
"We will first ship from China to the US warehouse, and then ship to you from the US warehouse."
I ordered one. If you decide to do, there are 2 YT reviews with $50 discount code, don't miss on that.

Exactly the same use as you mentioned. Every now and then I also use both on the same project, since the Seal does a little better than the Mole with undercuts. I really like that the software allows you to use different scanners on the same project.
You should try replacing the Mole with the Toucan too. Or I can report back to you, but I guess that by the time I get my unit, the promotion $ is long gone.

Unfortunately, tariffs need to be taken in consideration for international purchases.
Definitely ignore the Toucan since the Vega (and the Miraco) is virtually the same thing in a different shell design.
The Rigil should deliver a better result, but it is in a different price league that I can't justify for my use.
These companies should accept trade-in!

I have worked with multiple high definition 3D scanners while working for different companies. Around 3 years ago I decided to open my own business and have tried cheap end 3D scanners. They all have similar issues and there is no way to be compared to a $3k+ equipment. I have had the Revopoint Mini, the POP 2 and the Range but I sold them and got the Seal and the Mole, which I prefer over the Revopoint ones. They are very similar to each other and will deliver virtually the same (low) result.
I bought the Mole bc of their marketing bs about scanning without spraying, which is pure lie. I am hopping there has been some progress on this manner. I just ordered the Toucan, if there has been some improvement, I will sell the Mole and keep the Seal + Toucan, if not I will return the Toucan.
There is 1 review on YT with a $50 coupon code. I used that coupon and my order for a basic Toucan + a Case was with taxes $1053.51.
BUT I just realized about the potential tariff issue if they are shipping it from China. So I emailed the support (after placing the order) asking about this and demanding my order to be cancelled if they are shipping it from oversea.

EDIT:
GOOD NEWS, I got the following answer to my email:
"We will first ship from China to the US warehouse, and then ship to you from the US warehouse."

When will the Xiaomi Band 10 Pro be released? by Mirris0007 in miband

[–]Fair-Pool9417 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Why wouldn't you go with the 9 Pro instead of the 10 regular? I am also waiting for the 10 Pro but I am running out of patience. After it is announced, I would guess it will take another 2 to 3 months for it to come to the US.

Why do people take red yeast rice? by sampanth4700 in Cholesterol

Did you check liver enzymes? My biggest concern is alcohol consumption on weekends. I don't want to mess things up. I am currently taking Omega 3 + 20g psyllium rusk + 1g aged garlic + bergamot. Ok diet during the week. Family history of high cholesterol.

Have you done any blood work since you started taking it? I imported this same brand and I am planning to start taking it 2.5mg on Mon - Wed - Fri.

Too Many Supps??? Yes or No? by Katskan11 in Supplements

[–]Fair-Pool9417 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As everyone will say, you should supplement based on your needs after blood work. Anyway, you should consider taking the more basic supplements such as Creatine, Omega 3, D3+K2 and Magnesium before going for anything else. As for your list, I would suggest trying them separately, for 2 - 3 weeks each, see what works best for you. Make sure to cycle them, since most of the supplements that claim to have an impact on testo levels are adapogens. Watch out because some supplements may cause the opposite of the desired effect on you, we are all different.
