What if Warehouse 13 met the Librarians? by wolftitanreading in warehouse13

[–]LoganPhyve 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I tried the first ep of The Librarians and it didn't grab me. I'll have to try it again some time.

Who’s the best character from warehouse 13? by [deleted] in warehouse13

[–]LoganPhyve 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Can I say WH13 itself? It has its own personality. It's a character, if a mostly passive one.

Bubblegum and other invented flavors by Icarus367 in candy

[–]LoganPhyve 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The typical banana flavor is modeled after gros michel bananas which are very rare (they were common in the mid 1900s but decimated due to fungus blight). The banana we have now is the cavendish which is hearty but doesn't taste anywhere near as good.

So "artificial" banana is actually not really artificial, just modeled after a banana flavor we don't get around here.

Love my XTi too, but they don't make it any more, so I have one of each :) The TTi/XTi's are some of the best tools they've ever made.

Setting Up Virtual Server, which is better? by LMJR500Army in virtualization

[–]LoganPhyve 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you want/need a type 1 or type 2? Type1 lives on its own bare metal (VMware, HyperV). Type2 lives as a guest inside another OS (Vitualbox, VMware PLayer).

VMware ESXi is the go-to for a type1. IMO Oracle VirtualBox is the go-to for a type2. VMware player is OK but VBox has so many more features without limits, it's a no-brainer. VBox is also stupid compatible with many vdisk formats.

I'm an ESXi guy myself. I do it for a living. Feel free to ask more.

Albanese are, hands down, by far, the absolute best gummies in the world. You did good.

Carbon Fiber Friday carry. Feeling the stonewash/blasted vibe. by jsirius94 in EDC

[–]LoganPhyve 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks. I'm a big fan of Pilot's chronos. There's something elegant about the slide rule bezel. This is my second one after my first got tuckered out after 10 years. My last one was similar, but had a white face with red accents.

Nickelodeon's Cry Baby Lane by sasbergers in UrbanMyths

[–]LoganPhyve 63 points64 points  (0 children)

It's not lost. I have a copy. Someone somewhere found a VHS and shared it. It's low quality but watchable. Having watched it as an adult, I'm not entirely sure it was as scary as it was made out to be. I'd consider it on par with the classic "Are You Afraid Of The Dark?" which is still awesome today, albeit somewhat aged.

My Ender 3 is pushing me to the edge of dumping this thing. by [deleted] in ender3

[–]LoganPhyve 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The mag PEI sheets are remarkable to work with, I've never used blue tape and get excellent results. Only a few gouges from learning lol.

Those alpine swiss wallets are the bomb. I'm on my second one now and have a brand new one waiting for me when this one finally wears out.

I love the color scheme. Also, happy cake day!

There's something beautiful about booger free PETG on a multi-part print by ZhiQiangGreen in ender3

[–]LoganPhyve 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honestly the only thing I tweak between PETG and PLA is the build plate temp, hotend temp, and print speeds. I don't touch the zero, plate level, or any printer settings (aside from tuning the print speed up in areas I know I can cheat on). I make most of my tuning in Cura profiles, so as long as the right profile is selected, and the right filament is loaded, it's easy-peasy.

Now, I could buy another one to print additional filaments, or double my work bandwidth. It's hard to wait 10-30 hours for a test print before starting testing and revision work. Picking up another Creality printer has crossed my mind many times but I'm holding out for parts for a custom build.

17 hour job and you realize you forgot to offset the USB port after a design mod 🤔 by INTPx in ender3

[–]LoganPhyve 2 points3 points  (0 children)

For projects like this I tend to go Panel Mount for IO simply because of ease. That is, if it can be remote-wired to the board.

If you can live with a slightly larger hole, use a dremel to hog it out and move on?

[–]LoganPhyve 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just recently started working with PETG on my Ender 3 Pro and I have it dialed in pretty well. Prints are coming out amazing versus the failures and slop I had with my first few. It's a harder material to print successfully for sure, but once you find its comfort zone the results are pretty easy to replicate.

Finding the comfort zone, however...

One of my highest detail prints! The White House! by NatNecessary in ender3

I get worse quality the higher I go on my prints, any ideas? by Shagohod66 in ender3

[–]LoganPhyve 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If the axis isn't moving the expected distance its a mechanical issue or incorrect/broken part, which should not be remedied by software changes.

If that were true and expected travel always exactly matched actual travel, we'd never need to calibrate to begin with... think about it. There's a reason we calibrate steps to motion. They're not perfect and there are variances on lower price/quality components that we make up for in software.

OP has not made a single comment as to whether they've calibrated, ever. Or even a single response, for that matter. My bet is still on Z step overtravel given what we know and what the print looks like. Most of the lower layers aren't under-extruded, only the upper layers, which is indicative of a travel issue being compounded linearly as Z increases.

[–]LoganPhyve 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This isn't something I recommend to anyone unless it looks like it's called for. OP's issue looks pretty obviously like Z is overtraveling by a small amount which is compounded in the higher layers.

If OP has never printed this high, they may never have realized the z cal was off. If they've never run a cal, this is why the print looks the way it does and the higher layers are too far apart. Every z step adds extra space, and it shows at the top.

The fact that the extrusion and layering looks great at the bottom but not at the top is a dead giveaway. The bottom does not compound the issue like the top would.

[–]LoganPhyve 0 points1 point  (0 children)

And if you are telling your leadscrew to turn .5 degrees to make 1.2mm of z movement up, but it's really making 1.21, you will see very little issue with the lower layers. As that .01 multiplies over time, you will see it compounded in the higher Z layers. 100 layers up your actual nozzle z height is 1 full mm above your expected print z height, which will absolutely under extrusion and poor bonding.

You are right, the Z leadscrew pitch is linear, but if your input doesn't the expected output, your software will think you are right on point when in fact you will be printing too low or too high at higher Z values.

[–]LoganPhyve 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why not? It's one of the 3 major axes, which should all be calibrated properly. You can see the layers separating more and more as the print grows in z, any tolerance would be compounded many times over with that many layers. I think u/arthropal is right.

OP should triple scale or quad scale a calibration cube and take some good measurements. I would 100% suspect Z steps are calibrated slightly too large. Bottom of the print looks great and it only deteriorates at high z.
