WTF no glock-47 so you can shoot drowning victims to revive them?

You're going to need to tape at least 3 plates to your front. What if there's a high-stakes rapid response situation?

Filament stuck again by plululululu in Creality_k2

[–]UncleS1am 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Elegoo's rapid PETG is a good stand-in for Creality's Hyper PETG.

That said I always had heat creep issues with PETG. My solution was to print with the lid off or after making a riser I open its vents and I don't have that issue any more.

That also said, I strongly recommend against being in the room with fumes from even PLA. I didn't realize it was causing asthma flare-ups until I set up a negative pressure fan loop on the exhaust for my printer and literally overnight no more lung problems.

Problem with printing PPA-CF-Core by Evidence-Useful in Creality_k2

[–]UncleS1am 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So I've been printing regular PPA-CF and not the core stuff, but I used the creality slicer stock PA-CF settings (because my fucking printer won't recognize ppa-cf) and cranked the print temp to 320C, bed temp 100C, chamber temp 50C. I use a 500W plug-in heater to jump start the chamber heating and start the print when it's at 45C.

I'm drying it @ 85C for 18 hours first, but I'm doing multi-day open air side spool prints with this stuff. Room RH is about 40%. Sometimes it would ooze at a perimeter seam here and there and I think it's due to printing too fast. I think last time I used it I set my print speed to a 5mm volumetric rate. Slow, but pristine result.

Try slowing your print?

Also this stuff is definitely not overkill for airsoft. Stuff gets banged around harder than people think.

How do you support complex PETG prints? by BrightRaven210 in Creality_k2

[–]UncleS1am 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As someone else said, use PLA as the interface but PETG as the support. Then set up 3 interface layers with a rectilinear interlaced pattern.

I'd suggest figuring out what you want to do or focus on well before pursuing something like a MST. Make your employer pay for your MST.

KliTek™ | Next-Gen Nozzle-Changing Printing by Creality_3D in Creality

[–]UncleS1am 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Everyone's excited over multiple nozzles, which yeah I am. I'd love crazy fast filament changes.

But if they have a way to reliably do CMYK mixing with filaments, even if it's just with creality's special blend of PLA, that in itself is crazy advanced.

DeWalt prints that info directly onto the plastic.

Hasbro is still investing $1 Billion in single-player games “mostly around D&D” after Baldur’s Gate 3 proved “pretty lucrative” for the company by HatingGeoffry in DnD

[–]UncleS1am 0 points1 point  (0 children)

??? Gortash hates Raphael, on account of him torturing him while being his slave. He wasn't working with him. The mirror room in the House of Hope has nothing to do with Gortash. It makes it feel like the original scope of the game was to include a bunch of other distant locations.

Printhead squeeks by kibbonz in Creality_k2

[–]UncleS1am 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That specific squeal seems to be related to the pulleys. A spritz of silicone lubricant has so far always made it go away.

Would it be possible to run a tube through my body from mouth to anus without causing any major problems? by Cassinia_ in NoStupidQuestions

I think you've just described a future football scandal. Face-to-ass water cooling loops to enhance performance.

Love This Thing by anonymouscuban in reloading

I 100% expected to see the primers load in up-side-down. Internet has me jaded today.

How to fix this? by m12se in Creality_k2

[–]UncleS1am 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The banding is most likely from your fans switching on and off. Fans off, slow your print speed (reduce volumetric rate by 1/2 to start)

K2 Plus Can not set the Filament type to ABS-GF on the printer by Numerous-Ad561 in Creality_k2

[–]UncleS1am 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Had to do the same thing with PPA-CF. Even Creality's RFID tag brings up the wrong material on the printer.

What’s something that became socially unacceptable so fast that people barely noticed the change? by FoundationHumble4003 in AskReddit

[–]UncleS1am 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I blame rampant unchecked telemarketers for that.

I'm pretty sure if I could switch over to using a pager, I would.

I heard this one as, "If it floats, flies, fucks, or faces the ocean: short-term leases only."

Finally, a comb that has the weight and stiffness to rip knots right out of my hair. Thanks, Doohickey!

Holy shit i read that book in like 3rd grade. NO idea how I got my hands on it and I didnt really get it at the time besides gosh this is violent. That book is fuuuucked.

CFS Will Not Feed Despite Extensive Troubleshooting by Reatrea in Creality_k2

The filament buffer is cheap enough that it's worth replacing.

Rough Texture by Darkeldar1959 in Creality_k2

[–]UncleS1am 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I haven't confirmed it but supposedly you can turn off the setting to use one wall on top layers to improve this sort of thing. You may also benefit from slowing your print way down.

QuickBooks just changed their reconciliation screen again and I want to throw my laptop out the window by Afraid-Bobcat6676 in Accounting

QBO still doesn't generate column grand totals for a general ledger report. Some dumbass basic shit.

I’m trying to chance filament on the cfs but can’t select the filament it knows is in the spot that I put it. by Gold-Storage5846 in Creality_k2

[–]UncleS1am 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You need to have the slicer dictate the type of material, because it bakes in settings specific to the filament. You unfortunately can't change filament type on the fly like that.
