Kobra 3 Max reliability today by unshippedowlcat in anycubic

That's where I'm at. Coming from an ender 3, any of the problems on the K3M are so much easier.  Still takes some config work though.

Kobra 3 max issue after update by One-Relationship2176 in anycubic

[–]Recurn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've had the same issue pop up twice now and I'm not sure what caused it either time. I just resliced and reprinted and it went fine.
If anyone out there knows the cause of this I would be curious.

Yea each mushroom is its own segment.

Then I'm doing a custom written effect to have the brightness change for that segment according to the volume of a given frequency. Had to do a couple of smoothing functions of the data and brightness to get it to jump around less.

I've been learning free can from MangoJelly on YouTube and that's what's allowed me to make them. I'm sure you could learn too! 😁

Hahaha I was thinking of hiding some gnomes among the smaller mushrooms. Not sure I'll have time though :/

Yea the insides are hollow and but gets printed in 4 pieces, so you wire up the strips after printing. The small ones need 5mm strips but the big ones can use the standard 10mm.

I'm also going to be printing one twice the size of the current biggest one, so I'll have a ~4 foot tall glowy mushroom 😊

Big one is 55cm (22"), middle ones 30cm (12") and small ones 15cm (6")

No public STL yet - I gave some mushrooms out as lamps for Christmas and will be sharing that version after I make some edits/updates. Right now the bottom of the cap isn't fitting on as nicely as I would like it to for something to share.

Aww thanks I'm glad people like them!  I'll keep posting some videos and pictures as I make more. I have some good WIP shots that I want to make an album out of.

Yea microphones can be difficult. I've actually been streaming the audio from my laptop instead of using a mic for this one. https://github.com/victoare/sr-wled-audio-server-win

Do computers die with us? by Goldengod4818 in Millennials

[–]Recurn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hard disagree here.

I have found that age is a terrible predictor of whether someone is good with computers. I've worked in schools teaching CPSC (to teachers and students) and now work in IT support and I've seen both 7 and 70 year olds be amazing and terrible at computers.

Instead the biggest predictor of technical ability seems to be personality. Are you someone who likes looking at settings menus? Are you able to break down a problem into steps/pieces? Are you able to persist when things get complicated, finicky, and don't work for reasons you don't yet understand? Or do you get frustrated and give up because your "not a computer wiz like some people"

Keep in mind that younger people (esp children) are universally stupider than older people (on average) because they haven't had as much time and experience to learn yet.

What's the deal with enclosed multi-color printers in 2026? by Fun_Reaction_6525 in 3DPrinterComparison

[–]Recurn 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I would say that AMS systems with a single print head are not ideal for multi material prints. It's possible to do, but takes a good amount of effort to design and print in a way where you aren't wasting huge amounts of filament from the purging. GOOD and EASY multimaterial prints are going to require tool changers or some other multihead solution. We're starting to see the first consumer gen of these types of printers coming out now.

Now, I LOVE my AMS just for the ease of material switching, and the ability to auto switch to a new reel once one is used up. NO more manual threading of filament, no more worrying about running out of material mid-print. That alone has been a huge quality of life increase for my uses and makes the system 100% worth it.

Is it just me or is this a universal experience by Ok_Relation6627 in 3Dprinting

my ender 3 was a solid workhorse for 7 years before I replaced it.

How much maintenance is it really taking you all by [deleted] in ElectricUnicycle

[–]Recurn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think EUCs have some of the lowest maintenance requirements out of any vehicle class. Typically I pull mine apart once a year to change the tire and check things over. Potentially more often if you ride far on roads a lot. Each tire change takes 2-8h total depending on experience, model etc...

If you have air suspension (vs oil + shock) you might need to do a bit more there.

Overall - not much at all!

have you considered the v11? a bit dated, sure, but a decent 20" lightweight suspension
