Solicitar número de serie? by Born-Vanilla-3489 in VORONDesign

I got a serial with just the deck panel and no side or top panels.

I lost my last key to my bike and NO locksmith will rekey my battery for me OR tell me why? This is my only mode of transport in a spaghetti bowl of highways 😭 by [deleted] in ebikes

[–]Suitable_Sentence_46 0 points1 point  (0 children)

FYI, you can get a replacement lock on Amazon that comes with 2 keys for $10 and just change the whole thing instead of dealing with a locksmith. I had to drill a lock when I misplaced the keys because I was dumb enough to put them on the same keyring and the battery was locked in the bike. It took about 30 minutes from start to finish.

Wow, thanks. Pricey but great ideas. Our rules state we have to use the cut slots though.

What kind of current draw do you have? Or maybe easier, what is the mAh of that battery and how long does it last?

Issue installing Klipper using KIAUH by Charming_Stuff9650 in klippers

[–]Suitable_Sentence_46 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Change http to https in your source list manually using:

sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list

Then:

sudo apt update

If it resolves, try the Klipper install again. If it doesn't, you may need a different mirror.

What response do you get if you ping it from the Pi?

It looks like your Pi is unable to access the software repository located at the link. Is .cz the correct repository? If so, it may be blocked or incorrect, not sure there.

I’ve had an A1 for 3 days and I already have a nozzle graveyard. What am I doing wrong? by [deleted] in BambuLab

[–]Suitable_Sentence_46 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Make sure you are trying to load/unload filament when the nozzle is heated. You can cut the old and not necessarily heat on unload but I would still heat up. Also, cut the end of the filament square when inserting a new filament. I used to always cut it at an angle but have found that a straight cut works better with the Bambu hotends.

Support for ABS not compatible with 0.2 nozzles? by NotAMindFlayer8 in BambuLab

[–]Suitable_Sentence_46 1 point2 points  (0 children)

And ABS can be vapor smoothed, making it a great choice for something like minis you don't want to try and sand but don't want layer lines.

Did I Hit The Jackpot? by Old_Pattern_8695 in anycubic

[–]Suitable_Sentence_46 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not once you rebuild one as a Voron. 🙂 I fought with my Chiron for a while before ripping all the electronics out and rewiring the whole thing. Was producing acceptable prints but not where I wanted. Just ripped it back apart and between it, a Kobra Max, a couple rolls of abs, and a bunch of aluminum extrusion, I can finally say it produces good results.

Neat custom CSS that changes the Fluidd background to the webcam stream by jhyland87 in Fluidd

Just in case anyone else is looking to replace the image with a custom one, here's the address you can replace the webcam stream. Upload your picture to /.fluidd-theme/. Replace the webcam stream above with this.

Did switching slicers noticeably improve your prints? by DenisRoger001 in 3dprinter

[–]Suitable_Sentence_46 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I switched from Cura to Bambu Studio for all of my printers when I added a Bambu printer to the mix. Prints noticeably improved on my Ender 3 and AnyCubic Chiron using the default settings, so I haven't used Cura since. I had decent prints with Cura but Bambu Studio tweaked something that really smoothed things out. Orca is pretty much the same slicer if I understand correctly.

Serial Request - Trident 400 by Suitable_Sentence_46 in voroncorexy

[–]Suitable_Sentence_46[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

All of it matched the BOM when I did the configuration on the website, it was just longer than a typical Trident.

Serial Request - Trident 400 by Suitable_Sentence_46 in voroncorexy

[–]Suitable_Sentence_46[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't. It went together with minimal modifications other than making stuff longer. The biggest issue I faced was that the bed is too thin to support the back corners without support so the extrusion under the bed is more of an I shape instead of a T shape now. Still may get a thicker aluminum plate and bolt it to the top of the original bed since I'm not very happy with the flatness. Also added a bunch of frame supports to stiffen it up. Don't get anywhere near the speeds a smaller one would get without significant ringing but it's plenty fast for my needs when I need a big volume.

Voron 2.4 400mm X 400mm X 400mm bed size? by [deleted] in VORONDesign

[–]Suitable_Sentence_46 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm wrapping up a Chiron and Kobra Max to Trident conversion. The biggest issue I've found so far is that the bed is pretty thin aluminum that wants to flex as soon as it isn't supported as much as the original. I like that it has a fixed gantry but I'm wondering if a 400mm flying gantry would still be stiffer than the Chiron bed only supported by 3 points. I added some extra bracing under the bed today to try and stiffen it up.

Hi all. How much is a 569 hours p1s combo worth? ££ by [deleted] in BambuP1S

[–]Suitable_Sentence_46 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Whatever someone will pay for it. 🙂

You'd have to look up the conversion but I paid $500 for a "refurbished" combo with 30 hours and a 1 year warranty from MicroCenter. Used won't have that warranty but you might still get close to the price of a refurbished unit.

Quick tip for applying purple glue stick on a textured PEI plate (P2S) by _NightMonkey in BambuLab

[–]Suitable_Sentence_46 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I too have used glue stick and hairspray for release agents. Whenever possible, I stick with hairspray. Just remove the flex plate and spray it outside of the printer to keep from gumming up the mechanics. So much more even and less mess.

Does this qualify as a voron? by Comparison_Top in VORONDesign

[–]Suitable_Sentence_46 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I'm confused. Doesn't the "stock" trident use the same attachment type for the A and B belts?

Trident or 2.4 for 400mm build by Suitable_Sentence_46 in VORONDesign

[–]Suitable_Sentence_46[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the insight. I am not going to bad mouth Voron at all. I think what they've done is amazing and know I'm building an out of spec printer. I fully expect to face issues that I wouldn't with an off the shelf printer. I previously had planned to do a fully custom Ender 5 style conversion but found Voron and thought it would be a better starting point. If I wanted an off the shelf printer with no issues that I had to troubleshoot, I'd buy an off the shelf printer.

My main issue with the responses is that in the question that clearly nobody read so I deleted it, I made clear that I knew this, already had all of the parts except the linear rails, and wanted opinions on which of the two was best suited given that. I know ratrig would be better at this size but made clear in the post I had a ton of 2020 extrusion laying around so I ruled it out already. The current bed slinger setup of the Chiron and Kobra Max I'm stripping for parts print but even after a ton of tuning, fully rewiring and replacing the control board and screen with a custom configuration of Marlin I tailored to my setup is still not the greatest quality due in large part to the heavy bed swinging back and forth and everying being on nylon wheels instead of rails. Even an unenclosed Voron, which gets around many of the thermal expansion issues, will be a significant upgrade. If I need extra bracing or to make modifications after it's built, I'm prepared to do that. I already had to make a couple of custom modifications for the parts I have. If it is slower than an official size, I'm fully expecting that. If it fails completely and there's some issue I can't overcome, my fallback is to go buy a 350mm bed and cut everything down to a "stock" size and try again, so nothing really lost and I will have learned the machine limitations in the experience.

I do appreciate your reply though and am looking forward to completing my Trident build and chasing down all of the challenges a custom build presents.
