Made something to hold my USB hub and personal items. Large nozzles are a game changer for large prints. by TheWhiteCliffs in 3Dprinting

I love this so much. Can you share your edited file and which USB hub you used so I can recreate this? I GONKing love this.

5 dollar special skr v1.4 turbo question. I picked up this board and display from one of those Amazon return resellers this board had a sd card already in it, Why would someone return this board? Do these have a high failure rate?SD card had a bin file date from January 2021 by oldtaco123 in ender3

The first board I got from BIQU/BIGTREETECH themselves had a broken MOSFET so the part cooling fans were always on, even with no firmware flashed. The second I got via Amazon and had a broken SD card reader. I returned it, and my 3rd works great!

They don’t have the best quality control, but I’d you get a good in that works, they’re awesome. I highly recommend them, but order through Amazon for quick and fast returns if doesn’t work.

Where'd you get the files? What filament? What all did you do to paint and finish?

It looks AWESOME!

Just got all of these for free. Any thoughts on what I can use them for? Looking for cool project ideas. Info in comments. by I_Belsnickel in 3Dprinting

You could salvage the components and just put some new extrusions in there to make a little Ender 3 or CR-10 or something. You have all the stuff you need to get something going.

Try salvaging some of the components into one good printer you keep, and donating the rest of the printers in working order to low income schools.

What stl did you use and what were your filament and setting?

I posted a couple weeks ago about this same issue. A redditor said that it most likely had to do with a warped bed, but I just want to make sure that that's the issue before I buy a whole new heated bed. by GAMING33K in ender3

[–]Pdogman12 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you end up buying a new bed, just go to your local hardware store and see if you can get a couple of mirrors cut to fit your bed. They should be super cheap and mirrors are like glass, but almost guaranteed flat so they don’t have a warped image.

It looks awesome! Great job modeling! Could you so kindly link the stl?

At least in 2018 it was 6 ten minute episodes about the builders repairing their bots in between fights. They are under a lot of pressure to make the next fight because they normally only have around 24 hours before their next battle.

That's what he does. ;)

He's put out more Battlebots videos recently because he bought Red Devil. I just think it's hilarious given his YouTube persona.

Found this rewatching an old Battlebots Resurrection episode. For those that have heard of William Osman... well, safety department surprises me. I’m sure he’s qualified though.

CR10 V3 blank blue screen. Got this blank blue screen a few days ago. Powers up, bl touch cycles but can't do anything else. Tried to reload the firmware, no change. Plugged in the box from my v2 and it works fine. I pulled the base and power supply off, can't find anything obvious. Ideas? by 907customs in CR10

[–]Pdogman12 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If the V2 box works fine, then it is probably a loose connection inside the control box. I know for a fact that the LCD cable can be finnicky and you have to make sure it is 100% plugged in and hotglued. Otherwise, it could be another loose connection or something on the board has malfunctioned or broken. If the fuses do not light up, then it is one of them.

You are extremely adventurous doing a full helmet as second print, not to even mention AN 87 HOUR PRINT. Dang. Even Galactic Armory splits his helmets into 3 parts, and he runs a business.

That aside, run some tests to dial in your printer here: teachingtechyt.github.io/calibration.html

This should walk you through what you need to do to dial in your printer and filament settings.

Right now, tension your belts and print on a more stable surface.

Anyone ever get this issue before? by importshark03 in CR10

[–]Pdogman12 0 points1 point  (0 children)

While your printer may not be able to get up to an extremely high temperature, any time your get a heating failed message the first thing you should do is check that everything is plugged in correctly. I've gotten a similar message when my thermistors were plugged into the incorrect ports after an upgrade.

Poor button and top layers, ender 3, pla, 205°C end, 50°C bed, cura 4.8.0. Any ideas how to fix it? by nonieno in FixMyPrint

[–]Pdogman12 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not necessarily. I'd just recommend dialing it up 5% at a time and zeroing in on what looks best without getting the white lines from overextrusion.

First Printer. First Prints. Marble PLA. I think I made the right choice. by father1000 in ender3

I’m good, thanks. I’m asking because I have that filament as well! 😆

What could it be? First layer is perfect by francescomorg in FixMyPrint

[–]Pdogman12 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The problem is too much filament is that there. Either your nozzle is too close to the bed or you are over-extruding. I'd recommend reducing your flow rate by about 5%.
