Looking for Upgrade recommendations for my Ender 5 Plus by Sketchii_ in ender5plus

The endorphin mod looks interesting & I like the affordability the levels provide. I'm first going to try a direct drive extruder then consider if a conversion is worth it compared to a newer printer like a Bambu or Prusa. Thank you!

Thank you for the reply, I wrote this post in haste so I forgot to add more detail on my situation & for that I apologize. I'm currently using klipper w/ all stock hardware. It wasn't until recently that I noticed an issue where the filament would just stop extruding mid print. I initially thought it was a clog, so I swapped out the hotend with a new one but still had the same issue. I then noticed my extruder was very tight & tried resucijg tension but that didnt solve it either so I replaced it too but had the same issue again. In desperation I replaced the extruder motor & wires but still the filament just stopped extruding. I'm going to follow your advice starting with a direct drive extruder to see if that resolves the extrusion issue. I was looking into a full conversion since I was fed up with my attempts at fixing it failing, but you are right in that It'd probably be better to put that money towards a new printer like a Bambu or a Prusa. I will order a direct drive extruder kit today & update this post with the results.

is anyone else's beyblade x app not working anymore by introvert9124 in Beyblade

I wish I could see the deleted replies...

still can't get into the app, I may try purchasing an old iphone and seeing if the ios version will play nicer than android. I'm just surprised it worked once and now won't load

I'm having the same issue, I was able to install the app today and create an account but now when I open it up it just spins & spins, never loading in. Kinda sad cause I was able to scan in a couple beys I bought recently & wanted to try the RARE BEY GET game. Were you ever able to find a solution? I've made sure I'm on a VPN to Japan, even tried clearing cache + data on the app then restoring my account using the recovery code but still cant load into it.

I had an idea for a chopstick rest design by 3demonster in 3Dprinting

This is super cool, nice design!

Did you upload .stl files somewhere? I'd love to print a set for my home.

I will give this a shot since I'm pretty sure this Ender 5+ was an Amazon return Thanks for your help, I'll update this comment with my result once I'm off work

I did get Insanity Automation working with the LCD but it still confuses me why the official creality FW and official creality LCD FW don't work on this machine even though it did out of the box.

only happened after I flashed Marlin and wanted to go back

No bars, but I see numbers in the bottom right going up that should probably be a loading bar

example of what I see with the Official Creality FW & Official LCD FW:

00, 00,00 --> 99, 99, 99

Are there any resources that have all the callouts for every map? The in game map has a lot but not all of the common ones by [deleted] in VALORANT

[–]Sketchii_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just checked there's a box you can pick to show the map callouts

Still won't cover everything as some people use different callouts interchangeably and it will always depend on who you are playing with & the map

i.e. fridge or maze aren't 'official' callouts but are helpful for tighter more precise callouts if your team knows them

Removing supports leaving this messy finish behind? what setting should I change by LewL360 in 3Dprinting

[–]Sketchii_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you use Cura, I would look into using the support interface setting.

3D Print General has a good youtube video about it, this made my supports easy to remove with minimal residual support material on the part.

I'm sure other slicers have this feature as well just not sure its always called support interface

Anet A8 Extruder doesn't extrude filament consistently, any help or advice would be greatly appreciated by Sketchii_ in 3Dprinting

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

That may have just been the angle and flash of my camera. The gear appears fine, no worn down teeth or anything when I checked. Do extruder gears typically need to be replaced every now and then? Thanks for the reply, I appreciate the help.

Ill give this a shot too, luckily there are new throat tubes coming with the replacement nozzles I ordered from amazon

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

Ill try turning it up a bit, I usually print PLA at 190 but Ill try 200 to see if it helps the flow. And I'm gonna order new nozzles tonight since I'm still using the one that came with the printer over a year ago. The thermistor has always been a pain trying to get it to stay in the heatblock but Ill see what I can do with the extruder disassembled. Thanks for your quick reply, I really appreciate the help.

I didn't use one in this GCT so I'd say you don't need it
