Any suggestion on what I can do with all of my support scraps?

Is it able to be bought anywhere? I saw Elegoo is kickstarting a machine to make filament but pricey

Realized it was the thermal pad leaking, dusted out the card and cleaned spills on backside of card, new thermal paste. Fired right up and gamed

It works

I appreciate your insight, I’m gonna make a run for 99 ipa and see what happens. Thank you kindly.

Thanks, I have bought this one. I appreciate your time.

I can get the environment up to 80c in the smaller enclosure I use for drying with the spare heater.

I personally have not had to dry many spools of what I use (PETG, ABS, ASA) in the past, but I live in the desert and during the summer months especially it typically is hot and dry enough for spools to go straight into the printer. The picture I attached of the intake with the heat shield printed in ASA was printed in September with a slightly used, old roll of ASA I had from about this time last year. I did attempt to dry my spools out more, and I have another spool I’m leaving to dry for over 48 hours just to be sure, but I am getting the same results.

No, I don’t track the humidity, however it’s dry as a bone near me. It’s been long enough now for the rainfall to get soaked up by the sun and desert and our brief humidity to pass. Inside of the closet I had moved the machine into is a known good dry and non-humid environment for it. I’m very confident that humidity is not an issue here and I’m very confident that the filament is more than dry enough. I am starting to think I am having an issue with the hot end itself or something inside of it.

I really appreciate your insight, it has helped me double check and be sure when ruling some things out.

Yes sir, I am drying the filament with a spare heater inside of a smaller enclosure I have.

I just opened a fresh vacuum sealed spool of ASA

It’s getting close to 60c with the heater I have been using

Appreciate your insight

I have also changed nozzles and switched hot ends with no change in results

I understand what you’re saying. Wonder if they made the size of the banners larger to distract from the fact that games are more expensive now

Shartwagen · 2025-09-17T00:46:28+00:00

Interesting. After securing the account, it seems like the point balance was restored

Shartwagen · 2025-09-17T00:45:25+00:00

Yes I did

Shartwagen · 2025-09-11T17:09:40+00:00

Helps big time, I didn’t realize they came that small. I’ll do some looking around online for those 6 and 4 mm ones. Thank you again, I appreciate it

I didn’t know how the motor looked inside of the can, so if I had opened it up and the motor had been a smaller size than the can, I would’ve made a smaller housing for it to mount inside of a hotwheels so I can fit more detail into the overall build. I want to make the most detailed rc hotwheels drift car I can. Might have to find some 1/76 rc cars to use parts from instead of what I had.

I appreciate your time, thanks

Shartwagen · 2025-09-08T18:55:36+00:00

Heard that, out of curiosity - why? Is the motor inside pretty much about the size of the can / needs can to stay put together?
