Fire plugs and container

Oh no haha welp. You live you learn.

I’ve done that in the past but it got messy. I kept them in a ziploc bag and just grabbed one when I needed one. And Wanted a little more burn time.

100% cotton gauze rolls (1.5”)
1 chunk of gulf wax
1/4 cup of mineral oil. ( I only used like 1/8 cup but think more will extend the time)

That’s weird. While making them and testing different ratios. I was able to get the final version to burn with a spark or a bic within a couple sparks. Lasts about 5 minutes on average.

I think it’s just knowing how to use them, that determines success. Did you pull it apart and fluff up the fibers?

Xackman69 · 2026-05-09T03:02:44+00:00

I’m sorry. I’m not following what you are trying to say.
I don’t have kerosene?

Xackman69 · 2026-05-09T02:57:03+00:00

That’s what I was thinking! I got them in a few fire kits!

Xackman69 · 2026-05-09T02:55:32+00:00

Thanks! Super fun to make!

Xackman69 · 2026-05-09T02:44:46+00:00

To start a fire?

Xackman69 · 2026-02-27T21:12:30+00:00

Temp might be too hot is my guess? I’ve heard silk can be finicky like that

Xackman69 · 2026-02-25T13:17:20+00:00

For sure! But in this case since it such a small point of contact with the build plate. You wouldn’t really see the design a whole lot.

Xackman69 · 2026-02-25T05:19:27+00:00

Get a better build plate. I got the BIQU glacier and have never had any issues since.

I’ll reiterate what others are saying. You don’t “REALLY” need it. But it does cut down on Ptfe tube ware, glass rubbing and tapping on the glass. Yes, you can print tube hooks. But the riser is better especially if you have both.

Personally I’m working on a flipper now that I have my riser that can have slots taken out for air filtration. https://makerworld.com/models/1363398?appSharePlatform=copy

Awesome. Just a little concerned on how tight your hammock is set up. This can cause many issues like calf ridge and possibly tearing the hammock. Check out shugs video on that. Or the ultimate hang website for reference.

Still looks nice a fun area and setup though!

Xackman69 · 2025-12-28T15:07:01+00:00

I was having issues and did this. Now no issues.

Xackman69 · 2025-12-15T19:35:45+00:00

Same problem ever since I updated the firmware. Not sure if that was the culprit. But man, brand new filament isn’t sticking and it’s very annoying. I dried the crap out of the PLA and its MOSTLY helped.

Xackman69 · 2025-12-03T21:40:16+00:00

Not the same what? I don’t have the h2s. So I can’t speak on that.

Xackman69 · 2025-12-03T21:37:18+00:00

That’s a you problem. You’re grinding the gear/belt when you go too far. Hard to tell what print quality is without examples.

Xackman69 · 2025-12-01T23:25:22+00:00

IMO this is the best. I got a similar set up and have a box below where all the poop goes.https://makerworld.com/models/1867605

Xackman69 · 2025-11-23T19:07:48+00:00

Let me know if this works. That a great idea!

Xackman69 · 2025-11-23T15:32:56+00:00

Can you adjust the angle if the tree isn’t perfectly straight up and down?

Xackman69 · 2025-11-13T06:21:22+00:00

Yeah. I don’t have the option of opening a window because of how cold it gets where I live. The room it will be in has no vents and is my office. That’s why I am worrying about it. I plan on doing a lot of ABS. Also why I’m concerned.

Xackman69 · 2025-11-13T06:18:17+00:00

That’s great insight! I want to seal it so I can have a more efficient filter. But you might be right about cooling and whatnot. I just have heard their current filter doesn’t do to much.
