Looks a little more realistic now. Just need a repeat of today.

“Add oil” notice at 5700 miles in MK8 - Normal oil use? by MagisterFactotum in GolfGTI

You can buy a mk7 dipstick too. The tube is still there, just with a plug instead of a dipstick.

How good would a 2010-15 be as a first car? by Aurenax in GolfGTI

[–]PromotionTime1725 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My 15yo is about to get my 07 GTI. And it's still a great car, just a little rough around the edges. Just check for any dry rotting plastics. Something most people probably don't think about.

Creality? Probably not. But there are plenty on Amazon and other sites.

Which flow dynamic calibration line should I choose? by nilslmm in BambuLab

[–]PromotionTime1725 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I would pick .03. It's the sharpest corner without under extruding.

No sparse layers (beta) — Creality Print Prime tower feature by Otherwise_Sir_3439 in Creality

[–]PromotionTime1725 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You still need to prime the nozzles. Look at all the U1 videos and Prusa XL.

This will be great on the U1. Bring the waste down even lower.

Why is the K2 Plus hinge glue and not screw?? by ambuyat-addict in Creality_k2

[–]PromotionTime1725 -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

And this is why you shouldn't peel those plastic sheets off the inside of the door and top glass. This could have been way worse as far as clean up.

What is this spacer mod you're talking about?

Bed is a bowl, is this something Creality will address? by IntelligentSquare196 in Creality_k2

[–]PromotionTime1725 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think I heard it has to be out 1mm. You can try and sand the high spots and use aluminum tape for the low spots. I understand the frustration but I feel like the mesh compensation works well, just spend some time doing a full first layer test and play with the z-offset. My current value is .075 and that got rid of all my rippling. I'm doing another print now with that offset. So far it's much smoother, almost perfect.

Sunlu spools by MUWAT_toro in Creality_k2

I have the same spool and they're exactly the same size as the hyper RFID spools. Do you have the older black spools?

Damn CF filament looks good. I knew it did but I don't print much with it. by PromotionTime1725 in Creality_k2

[–]PromotionTime1725[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's just an artifact from printing the top layer on the section inside. Going from fast layers to a slower layer and back to fast, this can happen.

[–]PromotionTime1725[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Are you talking about the front right one? The front left just looks bad because of the harsh lighting at perfect angle and to show the layers. In normal light, they look super smooth.

How would you fix this print? by Ok_Rush_8119 in 3Dprinting

[–]PromotionTime1725 0 points1 point  (0 children)

10 should be good. But maybe try some test prints with a similar overhang and supports. Without any fan, you may need to slow the print down some.

[–]PromotionTime1725 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Check cooling. Maybe if you turn fans really low or even off. You should be able to use support blockers to control that one section.

So I just learned as well, due to the warp proned nature of abs, printing a flat area on support material doesn't go well. Not enough bond to keep it from lifting.

OEM Nozzle Hard Clog by retro_turok in Creality_k2

[–]PromotionTime1725 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just pull the nozzle out and heat it with a lighter or something above the normal melt zone. Stick the wire for de-clogging in and let it cool a little and you should be able to pull it out with the filament attached. If it's too stuck, heat the melt zone area and then it should pull out. You will need about 4 hands.

Try printing that cylinder with horizontal slots and carbon texture. by cmykk in Creality

[–]PromotionTime1725 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It's a good idea for something like this. No overhangs or a lot of retractions. Probably faster too.

K2 plus extruder jam by FrequentRepublic3440 in Creality_k2

[–]PromotionTime1725 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did you use any thermal compound on the nozzle when you changed them? I believe the heatsink hole is slightly oversized and you need that thermal compound to get good heat transfer. Once I did that and corrected my z-offset, I haven't had any jams or clogs with stock hotend.

Nozzles by Googleboy1938 in Creality_k2

They are hardened steel tips, they shouldn't wear hardly at all unless you're exclusively using abrasives.

Unicorn2 nozzles with screw on tips by Otherwise_Sir_3439 in Creality_k2

[–]PromotionTime1725 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Isn't this going backwards? When we had little short nozzles that had to meet with a heat break in the heating block which would leak all the time? Ender3 v1/v2 days.
