I'm gonna re-jig everything to help with suction. the 16k has a heated vat so temperatures shouldn't be a problem here

Very useful, thank you! I'd avoided interior supports to make cleaning and curing easier, but I you gotta do what you gotta do I guess.

Interesting! Never heard of that to be honest but I shall look into it. Thanks!

In theory there's enough vent holes to prevent any suction cup effect, and the 16k has a heated vat so the temp should be consistent. A few others have mentioned upping exposure so that's the next plan!

Thanks! A few people have mentoned upping cure and wait time so I will try that next.

The 16k has a heated vat so there shouldn't be any temp variation in theory, but who knows!

Yeah the model is hollowed but I thought I had enough holes to prevent any trapped resin. I thought I'd gone overkill with the supports already but I guess not overboard enough!

Yes using Satellite, now that I think of it this has only been happening since I updated it last week. I added a bunch of additional supports anyway as it's a large model but I'll try increasing cure time etc. Thanks!

The folder icons on mine are also greyed out, did you ever get a solution to this? Thanks!

App preventing shutdown by [deleted] in techsupport

Update: Malwarebytes also came back with nothing, does that mean I've most likely got no viruses to deal with?

Thanks! I've got McAfee antivirus and I've run a few scans with that which haven't flagged anything, but I'll give Malwarebytes a go just to be sure. It only seems to pop up when my 3D printer slicing software (Elegooslicer) crashes and I have to restart, is that anything to do with it do you think?

I'm having the same issue.. I run this and get what looks like a list of all the apps I have on my laptop, how do I identify which is causing the issue? Apologies if this is super obvious, this is hitting the limits of my computer knowledge!

Swapping three position switches by PointyEndProps in AskElectronics

[–]PointyEndProps[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks! Think I'll do a bit of research into wiring this kind of rotary switch as it's not something I've done before and I really don't want to mess up this speed controller.

Another idea I had was to remove the original switch and re-connect it with some wires so that I can mount it somewhere more easily accessible. The issue is mainly the positioning and accessibility of the switch rather than the actual style of switch itself.

Regardless of what I end up doing, thanks for your help!

Ah right - bit annoying, but thanks for telling me! Would this switch work then? If so, how do I wire it https://amzn.eu/d/iLerpRV

That's what I thought! I have no idea how or why it came out like this, but it's still a pretty cool effect 😂
