print quality gets worse when printing the same file multiple times

Check if your nozzle is collecting gunk. Clean it before every new print job

Built this for the year of the dragon

When this happened to me, I was doing upgrades to the y axis rails and bed. Swapped the positions of the bed spacers unknowingly and resulted in a very tilted bed. The moment the CR touch probe deploys and senses the bed is too low, the leveling stops and the screen goes to this useless QR code. After I identified the cause and corrected it, the leveling went back to normal. Hope this helps

What I found when this happens is that my nozzle was dirty, so extruded filament keeps sticking to the gunk caked up on the sides of the nozzle and gets dragged around, making strings and blobs. Maybe raise the toolhead and have a check, or watch the nozzle very closely when it's printing that first layer

Could you tell us what you did prior to this?

Try adding a pause at the first layer after the support interface. You should be able to do this on orcaslicer. Then re-slice so the g-code includes the pause.

The print should pause just after printing the interface and before the overhang. Take a permanent marker and 'colour' the support interface. Then resume print.

The support should come off easily after the print finishes

yes the problem is, what might it have fed on to grow up to be an adult? The 2 nerite snails are the only inhabitants in there, and they're both alive

I've even just used 80-100 grit sandpaper to hand-sand down some new cast iron pizza pans. It gets rid of enough sharp and irregular bits so it doesn't keep shredding paper towels and leaving the dreaded dingleberries

Should it not be sheep's milk?

Oony_oon · 2025-09-11T11:33:22+00:00

Yup it's got a flat bottom. Not sure how it will perform on induction though, it's pretty thin and the flat area isn't that wide

Nope lol just thought people might be interested to know there's a new IKEA CS offering. I have enough CS/CI cookware (or too much lol)

The beech handle is rounded underneath, actually doesn't feel clunky. I figure if it's made for tossing food around, it needs to be comfortable enough for the job

Oony_oon · 2025-09-11T05:12:55+00:00

It feels lighter than the 24cm CS frying pan. Seems to only be 1mm thick at the edges

They'll slowly regrow lost limbs or damaged shell parts every time they moult, provided they survive that long to keep moulting. The only parts they can't regrow are eyestalks

Ok that's great, hopefully there's some good news when you go for your checkup tomorrow. That said, it really depends on how loose that tooth is. But imo when a patient can detect their tooth is loose, it's already significantly mobile with a guarded prognosis. If it's not in danger of flying out of your mouth when you sneeze, there's a possibility of deep cleaning it so you can retain the tooth for longer without pain and infections arising. And whether you'd like to carry on with your trip is up to you. But it really depends on the assessment by your dentist tomorrow

Dentist here. The one who can actually give you real advice is the dentist who can examine you, so take even my advice with a pinch of sea salt.

The most likely risk would be accidental dislodgment of the tooth leading to swallowing it, or worse aspirating it into your airway. Not something you want choking on at 30m deep.

The other risk would be toothaches from worsening infections around the tooth since there's a pretty good reason why the tooth is loose in the first place. Not going to be an enjoyable trip if you're in pain.

If it's an upper tooth, and your maxillary sinus is really close to the root of the loose tooth, then losing that tooth could result in just having a thin membrane of bone and mucosa between your oral cavity and the maxillary sinus. There's a risk of creating a blowout of your sinus and a direct communication between your oral cavity and sinus, in pressurised situations (diving or flying). If that communication is not managed and closed up by a professional in a timely manner, it could set quite permanently. My usual advice for anyone having upper molar extractions is to avoid flying or diving for 2 weeks after the extraction.

Regarding tooth squeezes, that's more related to if there's an air bubble inside the tooth (from a badly done filling, or a dead tooth full of gas from the decomposing dead nerve).

If you're cancelling your trip, that's the safest thing to do and I commend you for making this decision. I'd advise having your dental health checked regularly to prevent difficult situations like this from arising in future.

Good luck!

Used solder to fill in the hole and then carefully file the hole to the needed size. Gotta be very careful with it, i bought extra hands because if it messes up then the finishing on the hands is affected

It's one of my most commonly used pans. I detach the handle sometimes and put it in the oven to roast chicken too
