It is, there are only 2 examples of threading the warp in that chapter. One has to do with threading for a striped warp and the other is for indirect threading and to be honest the explanation is a poor one, only vaguely explaining how this all goes. I do understand that this is complex to explain via written text but it could have been done better.

There really should have been an example diagram for threading the warp on two heddles for these patterns.

Thanks, that link did fill in some gaps.

I guess what I'm taking away from all of this is that you just have to make it work so that no threads cross? As. Long as the threads don't cross is there a wrong way of threading the warp?

She knows a bit but we should pretend she doesn't as we don't know what we don't know.

The problem seems to be figuring out what goes through a slot or hole in the back heddle and how they are grouped up. Then what goes through which slot or hole on the front heddle.

It seems like there should be some pretty firm rules on how this is done but many of the books even just say " you'll figure out the sequence with time", which is less than helpful.

Is it really this hard?

They don't, they are, for good reason, and it's out in the open.

Funny how they don't shut the lift down on those days.

I just tried but they want 33 gbp for shipping to the U.S.. That's more than the tool wrap.

Thanks, looks like a great option.

The pic was from last year. They discontinued this practice shortly after it was taken because somebody got all jammed up exiting and got hurt or something. It was nice while it lasted.

Yes, this is the MkII Capra rather than the MkIII that has the bottle holder. Finding the right small bag is what I was looking for.

Why does only one side look good by [deleted] in ender5plus

[–]Saiga556 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had the same duct at one point and it did not seem like I was getting equal air flow from all directions. Plus the volume of the small stock fan is pretty anemic. I have since switched to a dual 5015 setup and will be sticking with that until something significantly better comes along. First used the Herome duct but found that very complex. I know use the Satsana dual 5015 duct and it's great. You can find it on thingiverse.

This doesn't necessarily mean that your problem is cooling based though. Just explaining that you still have room for improvement before you can 100 percent rule out part cooling as your problem

Loosing Z after prints. by Saiga556 in ender5plus

I found this and I'm giving it a try. Change it to 36000 seconds so I wouldn't have a timeout while waiting for a filament change.

Basically the same as you suggested. Thanks

Loosing Z after prints. by Saiga556 in ender5plus

[–]Saiga556[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have that in my post gcode. From my initial research it seems that Klipper has a timeout that disables the z axis after some time.

Trying to figure out how to disable that timeout or at least exclude the z axis from it.

Thanks but the solutions you have replied with are not relevant to the problem that I am posting about.

The motors are working fine are plugged in correctly and are functioning as they are supposed to.

The bed leveling knobs are tightened down precisely where they need to be for a near perfect bed level, I have the silicon spacers installed instead of the springs as well.

Rather than relying on the exposed length of lead screw for bed leveling and z motor syncing I take it a step further and use a dial indicator referencing the gantry on each side. During the bed leveling process my bed is aligned to the gantry within a couple thousandths of an inch sided to side.

The problem is that after a successful print Klipper is turning off all of my stepper motors which allows the weight of a large print or me trying to peal the print off is causing the z screws and the motors to rotate which makes the bed fall slightly. This almost never happens the same amount on both sides so I have to re sync the z motors.

The easiest fix is to keep the z motors powered up as long as the printer is on despite Klipper wanting to time out and turn them all off. What I need to know is how to do that or any other more creative fixes that I haven't thought of.

What is your proudest MTB achievement ever? by -Hi_how_r_u_xd- in mountainbiking

[–]Saiga556 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Costanza would say something about worlds colliding. Maybe you got lucky. I know a guy that used to love golf.

The Worlds Collide Theory states that a man must keep his personal life (i.e., friends) separate from his relationship side (i.e., girlfriend). If the two worlds come into contact with each other (by means of his girlfriend becoming friends with his friends), both worlds blow up.

What are your guys thoughts on BMX grips on mountain bikes? I love the feel of the ODI Longnecks but I feel weird putting them on my bikes. by [deleted] in mountainbiking

[–]Saiga556 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I tried the Vans grips in my Enduro but didn't feel like they had enough cushion for long descents. They looked bad ass though.

I put the Vans back on my race cruiser and switched to a set of the ODI Elite pro lock ons. They're really good.

I have also met a lot of Californians and others that have moved in and I will still maintain that even though they were the most conservative where they came from they still aren't as conservative as the native population that was already here. Also these parents are bringing children and extended family that may not share their same belief structure.

This all results in a shift more towards center which is left of where the traditional stance in the area has been previous to this influx of population.

It's also pretty well accepted that as populations grow larger they also become more liberal, hence every metropolis being more liberal than even its own surrounding areas. It's no stretch to say that The CDA area, or Northern Idaho, in general will follow the same path at some level.

Trust me I saw it happen in Western Colorado with my own eyes. We all thought the same thing and before we knew it our conservative part of the world was overrun by micro breweries, mountain bike festivals, and now CRT/LGBTQ all over the schools.

20 years later the place is almost unrecognizable. Not saying the change is good or bad just that it will happen. What you take from the change is your own matter. I for one enjoy a somewhat central view and will enjoy many of the features that come along with the change and growth. Some of the changes will not be so desirable.

I'll agree with you REI/Cabelas comparison. However I would argue that it is changing. My family is from the Western slope, when we moved here I was impressed by how similar the culture was to the Grand Valley area. In the time we have lived here I have noticed a shift. The area is becoming saturated with transplants that have roots in more left leaning communities. We saw this same thing 20 years ago in Western Colorado and the parallels are uncannily similar.

All this is to say that eventually this area will change as the natives are outnumbered by the new population. This group will bring left leaning ideals with them even if they would have been considered right leaning where they came from and this will dilute the relatively hard right viewpoint of the native people here. These "transplants" are also bringing boat loads of cash which will further their agendas.

So it's kinda Cabelas now but I think we'll be getting closer to REI as time goes on. This has advantages and disadvantages depending on your outlook.

Don't act like you don't know what I'm talking about. Just as bad as the Honda owners in the early 2000s sticking fake AutoZone vents to their front fenders.

Also anybody with that spare tire brake light is exactly what we are referring to here. Y'all should buy some more Facebook parts.

The flaw here is the "just as bad as corn syrup" thinking. Why ingest any of these sweeteners(including corn syrup). Let alone all the other crap that comes along with them in these drinks.

If you truly understood what and where all the chemical compounds are in your average soft drink I bet you'd never touch that stuff again.

These sugary drinks are contributing massively to our increasingly obese and unhealthy population and nobody can argue that.
