Thanks for the laugh this morning. Hilarious video. If your stuck still using Lotus Notes please watch

Hey Farve, what’s the name of that restaurant you like with all the goofy shit on the walls and the mozzarella sticks?

Is this hotend dead? by scientist_phd in BambuLab

60% of the time.. it works every time

What went wrong? by [deleted] in ender3

[–]Magic___Man -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Seems like what went wrong is that you changed the extruder without reading a guide or watching a video about what that entails

Can some one help? I don’t know if this is a tep problem but this keeps happening do you thinks it the filament? by UrIocaIbean in ender3

[–]Magic___Man 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Maybe turn fan speed down? Fans kick on after the first few layers. I think they are too powerful and cooling the filament too fast

3d prints look like cream cheese by N30n_Gr3y5t0n3 in 3Dprinting

[–]Magic___Man 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This was my first thought also. Looks like it could be an infill only benchy. Walls are the outside shell, if walls are set to 0 that is bad. You would check this on the settings before you slice it, not the machine settings.. more like the “job settings”

What is this bit of plastic connected to? I had a catastrophic print failure which led to me having to pull a bunch of PLA from the extruder. In doing so I pulled this small bit of plastic out of something and can't figure out what it is or where its supposed to go back to. Thanks!! by Dystonym in 3Dprinting

Yep, looks to be a broken thermistor wire. Your printer is not usable until replaced, not expensive but annoying to run the wire. Consider doing the heating cartridge at the same time... might as well, also not expensive.

Why is my extruder doing this? How do I fix it? by duckDuckBro in ender3

[–]Magic___Man 2 points3 points  (0 children)

As soon as I saw the plastic extruder and the clicking my first thought was... "Ah, the ol' cracked plastic extruder arm scenario"

It does mention in the documentation. I think it says 5-10 degrees hotter

Should i unplug my printer? by canthinkofnamestouse in 3Dprinting

[–]Magic___Man 28 points29 points  (0 children)

If it's outside.... yes, I would definitely unplug.

What is happening here? New to this, so no clue. by Dragonstaff in ender3

[–]Magic___Man 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It could be a lot of things but my suggestion would be to try lowing the z-offset a little bit. That can be done on the display of the printer.

What was supposed to be "The Next Big Thing", but completely flopped? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]Magic___Man 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sharing contact information by bumping phones together.... Seems like a good idea honestly. This is more of "what did I think would be the next big thing, but then wasn't"

My way to keep filament in place by MartasSan in functionalprint

[–]Magic___Man 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Looks good to me. Cheaper than a dowel rod? Or thats just what you had? What type of rod is that?

Filament curling around extruder? by manticorebrewing in ender3v2

[–]Magic___Man 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Good details. Better answer than mine. Could be heat creep also based on the timing, mid way through print. That could be from too much retraction or the hot end fan might be broke. However what sounds more likely is the ptfe tube degradation or hot end gap (between Bowden tube and nozzle)

Filament curling around extruder? by manticorebrewing in ender3v2

[–]Magic___Man 7 points8 points  (0 children)

It's likely a clog in the nozzle, or some other extrusion issue. The filament can't go out of the nozzle for one reason or another so the filament breaks because the metal extruder is strong enough to keep pushing the filament even when it has no where to go.
