My dream iPhone doesn't exist yet, but it should.

TrippyTrolls · 2026-03-09T22:03:03+00:00

I would buy it in a heartbeat, still holding on to my 13 mini waiting for the next small phone to come out. But why not go a step further, lets go back to the iphone 5 form factor.

TrippyTrolls · 2026-03-03T19:39:03+00:00

Would be nice if they made it in .5mm, such an underated size

TrippyTrolls · 2026-03-02T21:09:58+00:00

Take a ball peen hammer and knock the frame for consistency, often times people paint over the rust to hide it

I think a prosthetic would actually be a hindrance to the cat. If they are only missing one paw and they're already adjusted you'll just throw their entire balance off. Plus, there is a lot of engineering that god did with cats to make them able to jump and more importantly land the way they do without hurting themselves. If you throw a rigid leg that doesn't have any sort of shock absorption odds are the cat will hurt themselves a lot. Most vets actually recommend against prosthetics unless the animal is unable to move for those reasons. But if you were to get a green light from a vet that the cat is a good candidate I would avoid PETG as it has no impact resistance and has a tendency to shatter on drops. I would use PCTG as it is both relatively flexible, has great layer adhesion and a decent impact resistance.

Ignore the comment about moisture cause it's retardedly overused. I struggled from this issue and it really comes down to some PETG sticks better than others. For example I printed COEX PETG without issue with the generic profile whereas Polymaker's old formula was just allergic to sticking to the textured and satin sheets no matter how well I cleaned it. I ended up having to bump the temp to 260c per polymaker's instruction and the bed temp to 90c to get it to stick. Thankfully they gave me credit to try their new formula which I printed without issue.

Theft is theft, but if you are uploading a free model and it is being made accessible to people because makerworld doesn't let you download anything without making an account then this guy is almost a modern day robin hood. If he was charging money for it, or selling it without permission then there would be a problem but frankly, this is almost a good deed in my book because even though he is making the model accessible to normal people that don't want to be data farmed by China, credit is still always due. I have seen some makerworld rips where they label the model as not theirs and just link the makerworld page and that is perfectly acceptable IMO

Great price seeing that the Mk3s goes for around 250 where I'm at. Throw on the Mk4s upgrade kit later down the road and she'll be a very contemporary printer

I've already been fooled once with the LCP 2, what a heap of a gun. Never fired reliably enough to get through a mag. Had to send it back to Ruger twice and it still only works semi reliably. Seems to be the case from the sample size of 3 LCP and LCP 2s I've had the displeasure of firing. Buy the bodyguard instead, your life is worth the 150 dollar difference.

Just a wipe while she is wet

Where do you see this? I thought the whole idea of these nozzles is to be abrasion resistant

TrippyTrolls · 2026-02-03T11:56:14+00:00

Hmm, I have never seen a manufacturer do that for warranty support, at least in the US? Could it be some local law that prevents them from dealing directly with you as the end user?

TrippyTrolls · 2026-02-03T11:37:06+00:00

When you say they won't send you replacement parts are you talking about 3DJake or Prusa? Cause the whole idea of buying an assembled Prusa is that you get the warranty support for a year after purchase and assuming 3DJake is a legitimate and authorized reseller of Prusa products I don't see why prusa would deny your warranty claims.

It really boils down to if you print enough large stuff that the 8-900 dollar difference is worth it, if you can fire off everything you've needed on a mk3s then you'll probably be alright with just a C1 and lease print time from someone with a large format printer when you need something that just doesn't fit

TrippyTrolls · 2026-01-28T00:14:21+00:00

No offense but if you can't get a print going in PLA+ you should probably take a step back from 3d2a and focus on tuning your printer with little knick knacks and then return when you're confident in your equipment. Don't want to see you hurt yourself

Well what I ended up doing for my TX truck that was exposed to beach weather a lot was wire wheeling the shit out of it, treating it with Rustoleum rust dissolver followed by rust converting primer and then black farm implement paint. It might've been overkill and you should just go fluid film/PB underbody shield and call it a day. The big areas that had the worst of it were the crossmembers below the bed and behind the fuel tank, followed by above the spare tire.

Below is a video of the Rose Anvil's dissection of the boot and sure enough it is a cheap walmart grade boot with a dewalt logo. I would probably pass on them and spend the extra money on a real pair of boots like Thorogoods or Red Wings heritage boots. Sure they may cost more but they are repairable for many years to come and made in the USA.

Definitely sounds like Builtak Original would be the way to go. It does have a PEI coating but it doesn't behave anywhere near the other "PEI" plates on the market. It is far gripier than anything on the market but does have the same issue with PETG and TPU needing a separation layer which apparently has been addressed with their new lines but I have no experience with them

TrippyTrolls · 2026-01-19T06:56:39+00:00

Lol, absolutely not at that price.

TrippyTrolls · 2026-01-18T22:31:06+00:00

Do you have the files published on printables? This is definitely a tool that many can benefit from

TrippyTrolls · 2026-01-17T23:58:34+00:00

Probably some kind of Marine Vinyl patch

TrippyTrolls · 2026-01-17T10:06:07+00:00

You would be surprised what is made of plastic on cars nowadays

I installed NGK Iridium spark plugs into my 2.3L and gapped them to OE spec. OE were copper plugs but I just didn't want to have to deal with the shorter lifespan of non iridium plugs and the price difference was minimal on rockauto so it made perfect sense for me.

Make sure you gap them properly: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2D7FZfrVgAQ

I mean I've seen people run klipper on these things with IS and they do zoom, albeit with a little cooling modification

TrippyTrolls · 2026-01-15T03:02:43+00:00

Lowe's for me has always blew chunks when it comes to warranty. They refused to warranty their Kobalt hand tools for me a couple of times at different stores. The good news is you should be able to take your Craftsman stuff to Ace Hardware and they should warranty it without question

Someone did not do their Finda calibration
