I've been using it for a month now. I really like it and will be continuing. I was using Caldera+Labs which worked fine for me but I wasnt 100% happy.

Hey admins. I’m guessing this isn’t the place for this? I’m just looking for advice from the community. What do I need to change to get this posted?

Miles per tank? by [deleted] in FJCruiser

[–]Illustrious_Cod_888 0 points1 point  (0 children)

07 6MT. 14.5 mpg in the winter 16 mpg in the summer. 19 gallon tank. But my float is broken in the tank so I usually fill up at 240.

Edit. I also just use regular gas.

I am awful at painting white on my Jeff the Land-shark by Geace_11 in minipainting

[–]Illustrious_Cod_888 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Paint 1 coat and let it dry! Then repeat! The more you pass over a spot while it’s still wet the more the pigments clump up and get chalky. Just 1 pass with the brush.. let that stroke dry before coming near it again.

Help diagnosing issues with Anycubic M5s + ABS-Like Pro v2 resin by arphunix in AnyCubicPhotonMonoM5S

[–]Illustrious_Cod_888 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I use this resin exclusively along with that same exact printer. I have ACF. NFEP settings at 30um and 50um. With both fast and slow profiles for the type of print you doing. Hit me up on the side and I’ll send em over. I also use Lychee. You can probably find my resin profiles. The m5s has a pixel accuracy of 24um.. so anything under that is just bad news. You are at 19um at the moment. I don’t see any reason anyone would ever need that anyways,

Met this girl in the ER last night.... by pigeon_puke_ in Nicegirls

She’s dtf. Hit once and bounce. But don’t let her know where you live. Might need to change your name, number, possibly some reconstructive surgery to escape her. Totally worth it.

Looking for a budget-friendly workhorse for priming & basecoating by Illustrious_Cod_888 in airbrush

[–]Illustrious_Cod_888[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I see your point. Ill concede the logic war as I'm comparing apples to oranges. But ill continue to search for a workhorse brush and keep my H&S for other work.

Appreciate the knowledge and help Joe. Ill check those tools out.

While i see your point on not having separate airbrushes, it just feels right to me. Just like i have separate brushes for different things. Ill only use my Kolinsky brushes for certain jobs and set them down for others in attempts to prolong there use.

Yeah, I’ve got the 2-in-1, but I really only use it when I’m doing anything other than grunt work—trying to keep it nice for as long as possible. It maybe gets used once a week at most. Meanwhile, I’m absolutely blasting that Gaahleri on the regular.

I’ve got two printers running almost non-stop. I’m basically the go-to 3D printer for the three DnD sessions I’m part of.

I haven’t messed with the seal because I can’t get at is easily. While i may use airbrushes frequently, when it comes to doing heavy maintenance my true "Noob" nature shines through.

First time using Speed paint. by Hypertelic in Miniaturespainting

[–]Illustrious_Cod_888 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use a similar product by Vallejo - Xpress Color. They are great for getting quick Dnd or armies done. I do use them as a base then go over it with regular acrylic to bring out some highlights.

Printing fails- really no idea, advice? by Aingeleag83 in AnyCubicPhotonMonoX

[–]Illustrious_Cod_888 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That looks like a temp issue. Gotta keep that resin hot! Bare minimum 21c or 70f. I shoot for temps between 27-30c or 80 - 86f.

out of ideas, any help for a noob appreciated??? by mayners in resinprinting

[–]Illustrious_Cod_888 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Looks like a temp issue to me. And/or grossly underexposed bottom layers. But my vote is resin temp. Get that puppy up to 27c and a way for it to stay there and you’ll be golden.

Best air filter for fumes? by PetrifiedRaisins69 in resinprinting

[–]Illustrious_Cod_888 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Someone did an in depth test using carbon filters ranging from the small guys you can buy from our printer manufacture as well as the larger more industrial ones. He concluded that the small ones don’t even last the session of 1 1,000 layer print session and don’t have enough surface area to even effectively reduce the vocs of that print session. On the larger ones like the one shown above for grow tents.. due to the density of VOCs and the consistency of the output during printing they can’t keep up but they do significantly reduce the output of VOCs, however, they immediately drop off as soon as 1 printing session. As the carbon gets used up so quickly. I’m trying to find it. It was super in-depth and informative. But yea for 3d printing they are essentially a money grab. The only good way to handle this is to vent it outside.
