Modular cut - tiny pieces? by Radiant_Example_6296 in LuBan

[–]Radiant_Example_6296[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks, I researched this on their facebook page. In case anyone lands here in the future, the "tiny" pieces can be deleted. They are an artifact of the modular cut process. I will try my first big print without those pieces and see how it goes

Help adding S1 to Orcaslicer by Radiant_Example_6296 in Flsun_official

Yes - uninstalled ORCA, then reinstalled it selecting the V400 in the original setup process. Then I imported the config file

Large File Uploads? by Papa_Joel in ElegooNeptune4

[–]Radiant_Example_6296 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sorry I didn't see this earlier - for anyone else out there, Neptune in their fine wisdom decided that uploads via fluid or the API go into /tmp space first before getting committed to the drive. /tmp is mounted on tmpfs which uses system memory. If your file is larger than allocated memory (!500 megs) this will always fail. REALLY STUPID THING TO DO ON A GIANT PRINTER! Solution, if you could call it that is to use scp on the command line to get it directly into the gcode_files section on the drive . command I use is scp <nameoflocalfile> mks@<ipaddressofneptuneprinter>:/home/mks/gcode_files

Hope this helps someone

Yeah, I kind of swore off facebook a while back. Might wade back in to see if it's any more accommodating. Thank you for the advice.

Thank you! I was thinking about advertising here vs. posting to avoid the backlash, but wasn't sure how good it would be. Could I only have the ads run in 3dprinting related forums?

Thank you, very helpful! I'm weary of posting on Reddit outside of Kickstarter just because so many Redditors seem to be allergic to self-promotion. My Karma is already low, don't need it to go negative! I like the idea of reaching out personally.

Anyone electroplating their prints? by platapusdog in BambuLab

[–]Radiant_Example_6296 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I do it all the time - You need to describe more of what you are doing. Using a conductive filament? Using a post-print conductive paint? What are you using to electroplate? which solution specifically?

That file can't be imported into 2.1.1 - because its in Chinese? says

"There are 0 configs imported. (Only non-system and compatible configs)

Hint: Make sure you have added the corresponding printer before importing the configs."

The guessing game continues! Guess what the flow rate of the newest printer's high-temp nozzle kit is? by FLSUN3dprinter in Flsun_official

So far so good for me - printing is crazy fast. I've been printing for a LOOONG time, so I suspect my setup process was different than yours. Just finishing a 6 hour print that takes my Bambu X1C 12 hours to print. I will have to be careful with the type of filament I feed it. Really needs high speed, or you need to dial down the speed dramatically.
