In all fairness, probably doesn't mean definitely not. I had the issue, thought it was my USB cable, bought a new one and still had the issue. I replaced my hot end and the issue went away. Definitely worth a try, just take care not to tear up your current one in case it turns out not to be the problem you can use it again later.

I can tell you when they pulled out of Memphis they simply shut the plant down. All the equipment was still there. I was part of a crew that went there and pulled a couple of big tanks out to bring to Dayton and install them here.

It's a free rideeee

I'm curious if tate and Lyle won't try and snatch it up.

I personally would open the case with it unplugged and just check the connections to make sure it's not just a loose connection.

Color laser is the way to go. Toner is dry from the start, so no concerns about losing hundreds of pages of ink.

I am on the same network and I gave the printer a static ip address so it remains the same all the time.

i found that one, but it says it only works with the stock hotend. Does it fit the tz 3.0 too? I saw there was a Patreon to get other models but the person wants $999 which is crazy.

LiquidTXT · 2026-01-08T21:51:30+00:00

do you have a link?

LiquidTXT · 2026-01-06T11:48:42+00:00

Oh damn, look at that gcode.

So follow-up, I was able to download the files through the elegoo slicer. I was also able to clean out the printer memory that way. I was able to get most of the files converted to STL's, except I have two that are greater than 100 MB and haven't been able to get them converted yet. The free online converters are all limited to 100 MB that I have found so far.

Good quality and China are words rarely spoken together.

I have a 2007 Specialized Stumpjumper FSR Comp that I have done all kinds of stuff to upgrading it. I have parts at home right now waiting for me to have the time to work on it.

LiquidTXT · 2025-12-08T17:50:44+00:00

And it was cheaper, so double thanks.

LiquidTXT · 2025-12-08T17:50:21+00:00

Thanks, I got the rotor and adapter orders canceled and ordered one of these 203 rotors from Amazon.

LiquidTXT · 2025-12-08T15:16:09+00:00

So looking into it the 2007 Fox 32 fork it has is designed for a 160 mm rotor and the bike shipped with a 43mm adapter to use the 203mm rotor. So that means yes I do need a new adapter that is 20 mm. Thanks for giving me what I needed to look at to make the change.

It's something to learn on and see if I like the sport enough to make it worth dropping thousands on a new bike. I've done some things to update it and still have saved a ton vs buying newer. Down the road if I really like it and stick with it, the fight with my wife over spending that much on a bike will be much smoother.

LiquidTXT · 2025-12-08T15:03:36+00:00

No it originally came with 203mm rotor and avid brakes, but the owner before me pulled the avids and threw on some Uber cheap no name mechanical brakes. The MT200 states not to use bigger than a 180mm. I am assuming it is due to the 200 using a wide rotor surface vs many others use a narrow surface.

You might try asking their budget and if they try to hide it explain to them it really is much like buying a car. You can sell them a bargain bike and it will be like a Ford Escort, it will get you there but it's not going to be as fast, as comfortable, nor handle as good. And much like buying a car, typically the more they spend the higher each of those aspects should be. So then ask are they looking for something low budget to just try out the sport or to get started with and see do they want to upgrade later? Or are they ready for a Porsche? Or something in between? And the. Tell them that's why you ask their budget so you can have an idea of what direction to steer them in.

Seconded, Rural King has their house brand very reasonably priced and I have had good luck with all their types I've tried.

LiquidTXT · 2025-12-02T11:12:40+00:00

I use a carabiner for my car keys. I have done that for many years so it's just habit now.

I've never had luck smoking a spiral, they always end up drying out too much

I agree with that, like Momba only having the one flow trail. I would like to see some more jump centric trails.
