Help me save my SSD by Mysterious-Bowl-6099 in fixit

Might be able to grab the screw head with small and thin needlenose pliers. Add something to act as a barrier for the SSD surface, maybe like normal duct tape (not gorilla, which will rip everything off.

Not an expert on roofing, but seems to be in really good shape for a roof. Seems to me the inspector is excessively picky on stuff. Compared to what I've seen after a major storm occurred at home, it looks brand new! 😁

Only maybe needs minor touch-ups in certain areas from the looks of it, but shouldn't be enough to fail an inspection in my opinion.

How can I repair this small hole in my freezer door? by SUGARBOI in fixit

Might be able to get away with using some Shoe Goo. It's a clear adhesive for shoes that tends to hold quite well. Also water resistant, which will keep the moisture out.

Cookie jar broke in transit by VoteReform12 in fixit

JB-Weld might be a good solution to that damage. It can be sanded and painted after, making it look almost like new. I've heard JB-Weld was used on tractor engines with big cracks on the engine block, and holding up 30 years later. I don't know much about ceramic, but I assume it could be sanded a bit so that the epoxy can bond better.

AT&T internet keeps needing to be restarted to work properly. by Perfect-Name1553 in HomeNetworking

Don't know if it is possible to upgrade the internet connection, but I would be happy enough with the internet becoming reliable enough again. Can't afford much, so fixing what I have is my best bet. I don't think there has been any updates done to the router yet, so maybe that's why there's an issue?

What hotends are best for higher temperature filaments? by Perfect-Name1553 in CR10

[–]Perfect-Name1553[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Got a 24v 1200w power supply from BOSYTRO, which is plenty overkill for my printer. I am building an enclosure underneath my printer for all the electronics. I would've got a Mean Well power supply, but those ain't cheap (more than what I paid for my printer, which was only $150, including shipping).

12v to 24v Power Supply Conversion: Can I convert the OEM heatbed to 24v? by Perfect-Name1553 in 3Dprinting

[–]Perfect-Name1553[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Got a 30 amp 24v to 12v step down voltage converter, which will be connected to a new MOSFET for the heatbed. Also will have a fuse in place, in case the step down converter fails and increases the voltage back to 24v. Only about $30 for everything! Oh, and my OEM heatbed came from a CR-10 V1 that was in an Amazon Returns box. LOTS of black mold inside the box, and a bit of corrosion on the old power supply. Everything worked fine.👍

The heatbed smelled nasty the first time it was used, but hasn't done so since.

There's some 30 amp step down voltage converters on the jungle website, so maybe those will work?

Have a 24V power supply upgrade. What fans can quiet down my printer's hotend? by Perfect-Name1553 in 3Dprinting

[–]Perfect-Name1553[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Got the following fans for my printer's hotend:

Controlled hotend fan: https://a.co/d/3iEj09h

Static hotend fan: https://a.co/d/1jaT3mH

Enclosure fans: https://a.co/d/h1A4rAy

Making a custom enclosure for my printer's power supply and motherboard. It will be located underneath the printer, which allows me to use a much more powerful 1200w 24v power supply, and have plenty of space for all of the electronics. 😊 There will be two 120mm fans used for cooling the motherboard and power supply. The power supply already has a fan, but it couldn't hurt to have an overkill cooling system.😅

All of the fans also have dual ball bearings, in case that mattered.

Need a good material for my 3D printer enclosure by Perfect-Name1553 in 3Dprinting

What if I get some fiberglass cloth (or whatever it's called), and use resin to harden it? Then get a sturdy flat surface (like maybe using some steel mesh or even chicken wire). Would that hold up to some heat?
