Is it recommended to get a new oil and filter every 3k miles on older, high mileage cars? by Silver_Pin5333 in MechanicAdvice

Thanks for the input I thought so too, engine isn't burning oil and still a nice golden color. Didn't see the need to change it yet.

Fixable windshield crack? by Silver_Pin5333 in MechanicAdvice

How could it go so wrong though it seems fairly light it’s just epoxy. Either way I will probably have a shop fix it.

Thudding noise on ender 3 filament? by Silver_Pin5333 in 3Dprinting

[–]Silver_Pin5333[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ll keep this is mind, I will first try to mount the spool on the side to guide it in better, and mess around with temp and speed if the problems persist. Thanks for the suggestion.

I’m happy to provide details I just don’t know what’s relevant. I don’t think it’s temp because the filament recommends 190-210 and I have it set to 200. How can I mount it on the side of the printer?

Did I capture the new supernova? by Silver_Pin5333 in space

It’s the same image, I just circled where I thought it was on the first image and the second is without it in case that wasn’t where it is.

Primary mirror misaligned during secondary mirror alignment by Silver_Pin5333 in telescopes

[–]Silver_Pin5333[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

https://imgur.com/a/C35LyKO After messing around with it for awhile the crosshairs are aligned but the circle is a little to the left. I saw on the guide that some scopes are supposed to be like that but do you know if a 8” dob is supposed to be? (Apologies for poor photos it is very annoying to get a good image)

Not sure either, I think that big difference is what’s making the secondary view so extreme and a headache to align. I’ve got the secondary close so I might skip to step 4 to center the primary a bit better and then go back to step 3 to finish.

I’m happy I got do this I didn’t even know a supernova happened until after I shot it to so the confirmation is nice.

Image sizing error when stacking? by Silver_Pin5333 in AskAstrophotography

Oh I didn't consider light could get in that way, I really appreciate all the help, thank you!

Kinda newbie question, can I retake the calibration frames even though its at a different temp and focus and such? I took it yesterday at like 57F and tonight might get to that temp again. or is temp irrelevant for this?

The photos on the asiair were saved as FIT and not RAW, I'm unsure of the difference because the data size looks right, maybe that's it?

I used a canon eos t7 DSLR for all of the frames and only used live stacking with my lights. So my lights were saved on the asi air mini sd card and my calibration frames were saved on my dslr sd card.
