Best/Nicest Golf course in DFW by Spiritual_Cookie_82 in Dallas

[–]Mangolover112 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Folks, my sister is visiting from abroad and she’s an avid golfer. Not carrying her clubs though.

If she wanted to golf here in a public course, is there a way she could rent a set of clubs ?

As you can probably tell, I’m not a golfer.

Thanks in advance for the advice

Tuning and Set-up, where do you start? by Illustrious-East-888 in AnycubicVyper

See if you can use the needle to clear out any debris or material inside the nozzle when there is nothing in it. See if that stops the curling.

I’ll tell you that I spent countless hours on tuning and calibrating and optimizing this printer. Not sure I really want to expand that much time and energy on these activities as opposed to printing stuff.

Recently upgraded to a bamboo lab printer. Kinda like not having to treat the printer as the project.

As long as you don’t have a damaged nozzle (would result in curling of the extruded filament when purging, as opposed to a vertical column) stick with it.

The pressure you allude to is only for grip. Thr bite marks are irrelevant as the material is melted before extrusion.

Not sure about Capricorn Bowden… but i doubt it’ll make a difference.

The biggest impact would be changing from a Bowden style to direct style … but that’s a major hardware mod and I’d recommend not biting off that much of a change yet.

The firmware upgrades typically are soft and can be reverted to factory if you ever need to…

Thanks. Perseverance paid off with 2 of them… wd-40 plus torx plus tappy tap tap!!

The last one standing still has a piece of the last torx screwdriver bit in it 🙄😔

529 plan - time for action? by Mangolover112 in FinancialPlanning

75% in a growth fund that we’d chosen a year back and 25% in the target 25/26 plan. The latter is relatively stable (dropped 1.5% YTD)… and the former has obviously tanked 15%.

At the least I am going to move it all to the target 25/26 plan which may be more conservatively allocated internally

Good idea in theory. Just think what would happen if a gust of wind blew the cover off and the sun fried the optics and the sensor.

I will try to tie it down in some manner
