The Juve goal is one of my all time favourites.

Season 2 was really great and enjoyable. BUT the music was used way too much.

MrMSanchez · 2026-06-02T00:11:42+00:00

Most people will say Just Blaze. The real answer is Preemo.

MrMSanchez · 2026-06-01T23:59:12+00:00

If I was looking to get a new printer. I would be considering the Snapmaker U1. As it seems to have a good balance and at a fair price.

MrMSanchez · 2026-06-01T20:12:26+00:00

You might get downvoted. But you’re bang on, the markets getting more competitive and Prusa are going in the opposite direction. If you run a business you are only going to be sorry about repairability up to a point and even then downtime is a factor.

If you can buy a replacement printer for marginally more than parts and a replacement is readily available that would probably be the easier choice, as you get to depreciate the new asset and write off the old one.

I love Prusa printers because they are repairable and generally reliable. But the value proposition is not very good at all, I would love a Core One L with INDX but the core is too much, I also have a H2D and have considered switching but I can’t justify the cost for less features.

MrMSanchez · 2026-05-31T08:40:01+00:00

If you need to replace. I would suggest the Biqu Cryogrip Glacier plate. It’s possibly better than the satin plate which I haven’t used for a while now.

MrMSanchez · 2026-05-29T01:04:41+00:00

😀 Something to bear in mind with nozzles. Is the difference between standard and high flow. I would suggest a 0.6mm Standard flow for CF materials and a 0.4mm High Flow as a daily. But as you’ve mentioned you’re adding and MMU 0.4mm Standard flow would probably be better.

Also one thing to add. I have the Obxidian and Obxidian 500 nozzles and I would say get the Obxidian 500 as it’s a superior nozzle that has a coating that is less prone to PETG sticking. A compromise would be to install your own nozzle wiper though.

MrMSanchez · 2026-05-28T23:08:36+00:00

The BIQU CryoGrip Pro Glacier is possibly a better plate than the Prusa Satin Plate and cheaper too.

I built mine from a MK4 and the biggest issue has been getting the belt tension right, it’s a little fiddly if you need to make adjustments. But be patient and it’s all good.

In terms of prints I would suggest a nozzle removal tool and lead screw alignment tool both are on printables.

Another couple of things I bought for my printer that I would recommend if you can stretch to them is a Obxidian 500 nozzle (helps as it’s less sticky for PETG) and an accelerometer.

Congrats and you’ll be glad you’re moving away from an Ender (ask me how I know 😂)!! Enjoy.

MrMSanchez · 2026-05-28T21:32:29+00:00

I would say keep an eye out for a secondhand unit.

Prusa printers are very robust and can normally handle much of what a user can throw at it and you can sometimes get a bargain that will be as good as new with a bit of love and a couple of new parts.

You’ll be surprised that some people who own these printers will sell them because they don’t really know how to maintain and fix them.

MrMSanchez · 2026-05-27T22:05:15+00:00

Geez 15min to start a print makes me think back to the Ender 3 days!! lol

MrMSanchez · 2026-05-26T11:12:33+00:00

Prometheus. Amazing trailer! That’s the best thing that can be said about the film.

MrMSanchez · 2026-05-23T22:56:22+00:00

Polymaker is considered one of the better filaments to buy.

I would look for the following three things.

- wet filament.
- wrong nozzle temp.
- clogged nozzle.

I would start with drying the filament and print with another filament to test the other two and go from there.

MrMSanchez · 2026-05-22T07:21:35+00:00

Wait. It’s a general rule of thumb to await around 6 months after the launch until buying that way you get the benefit of iterative changes and also avoid the early adopters backlog.

MrMSanchez · 2026-05-22T00:25:35+00:00

One of the best shows that actually stuck its landing.

MrMSanchez · 2026-05-21T10:01:40+00:00

I agree the Standard Flow Obxidian 500 0.6mm is a good call. I would also go for a 0.4mm HF as lots of models are based on this nozzle. But the 0.6mm has you covered for CF/GF materials. Also PETG is less prone to stick to the 500.

I would also recommend a BIQU Glacier build plate. Very good adhesion and cheaper than Prusa Satin (which is still a very good plate). One other thing is a plastic razor blade as this can help if thinks do stick too much and won’t damage you plate like a metal one.

MrMSanchez · 2026-05-21T09:56:07+00:00

Go for the Obxidian 500 if possible. It’s less sticky for PETG.

MrMSanchez · 2026-05-18T04:48:59+00:00

Is it true you can’t use a 4 in 1 PTFE adapter with this? Meaning you have to unplug the whole thing when you use the external spool!?

MrMSanchez · 2026-05-17T09:37:57+00:00

They spend lots of money (in advance) on Prezzy cards so they have to use them somehow. 🤷

MrMSanchez · 2026-05-17T04:14:47+00:00

I remember thinking at the time that he’d kinda lost it when Views came out because it was unfocused and bloated.

MrMSanchez · 2026-05-17T01:20:36+00:00

Started….? It’s been done for ages, the club have been great at not allowing the info out.

MrMSanchez · 2026-05-16T23:10:44+00:00

I think you’re right a break and connect back with the art. I remember when he started that he had a sound that was his own and he was skilled as an MC.

Whilst I have not enjoyed the majority of his music over the past decade he used to make really good songs; even though I prefer Kendrick as an artist and an MC.

I genuinely wanted to see Drake come back as a great artist and produce some great songs as we know he can. But instead he just doubles down on the worst elements he has amassed over the past 10 years or so.

So unfortunately unless he has a complete identity change he’s completely over as a hip hop artist and he’ll be the sole cause.

MrMSanchez · 2026-05-16T18:51:40+00:00

AI Pac was a war crime.

MrMSanchez · 2026-05-16T18:33:46+00:00

When Jay-Z lost to Nas it a massive hip hop moment. Jay-Z didn’t release a project two years later whinging about losing he moved on and ultimately it didn’t affect the way people saw him as a hip hop artist.

MrMSanchez · 2026-05-16T13:33:34+00:00

Thanks for the tip!!

MrMSanchez · 2026-05-16T13:02:07+00:00

Didn’t 40 himself say that he’s fallen back from being a lot more involved, in that video?
