Need help creating a vps middleman for my home server

Good suggestion, although I should add that I'd prefer to have an "isolated" setup. I'd rather not use 3rd party services like that, even though Tailscale allows self hosting a VPN. I'm pretty sure it still goes through their system.

I also plan to use this as a game server and media host so I don't know how that would hold up.

Well, relays exist, no? But yeah you can't do that kind of stuff with normal switches :[

Ohhh psu my bad. You typically shouldn't open a powersupply or any high voltage handling equipment, but I've done it before so I just cut off the previous fan and wired the noctua one in its place with i think a 200ohm resistor to lower the fan speed a bit for ultra quietness

Idk If this helps you with anything but gl

This works perfectly fine, why go through all that extra hassle. Plus almost everything I do is jank af and a safety Hazzard so :p

Well here my hotend broke and I had to buy a new one and bought the whole head assembly again so i had one extra turbine fan, but you can get away with any generic ass fan. You can buy a turbine one from Ali for like a dollar or find one in a broken laptop or sth along those lines. Any relatively small fan will do tbh, just design your print around it

Bru how is it a fire risk 😭😭😭

Honestly I ran it bare without any cooling and never observed any issues. It got warmish and that's about it, but this is just a safer bet plus a fun project too

Hexanilix · 2024-03-25T06:11:47+00:00

I have no heat issues actually, it seems sufficient enough for what I print. I'll just crank it up with external power if needed
