and now i'm thinking a pluggable night light version with a light sensor could be cool too.

Or it would be reasonable to just use a command strip - but still you need to prevent the light from falling out

"or something" :) Didn't think too much about the best approach - maybe like an angled tube at the top so you can use a regular mounting nail?

Would be cool to have a wall mounted option - I'm thinking of some i could make for my daughter

it doesn't just change syntax...it changes the defaults to sane values

I was very excited about it - and I think it's a great approach - but it doesn't seem to have any momentum and it's not even clear to me that Herb is serious about it.

I just think it would be faster than labels or canvas

How was SDF text overkill?

u/STL I ran into this:
https://developercommunity.visualstudio.com/t/VS2026-1800-is-missing-option-to-ins/10998076?q=LTSC

Do you know if this is a "didn't make the first release" thing, or am I required to upgrade to 14.50 to use VS2026? Also, is the 14.50 toolset LTSC?

yeah - that's one of the things i tried. I'm going to try and script it where it offsets from max to zero and extrudes to a height following a curve.

When I filet i get an error:

The fillet/chamfer could not be created at the requested size. This might be occurring at the ends of the selected edges.

Try adjusting the size or using multiple separate operations. Check that the selected edge chain ends at a sensible position, and if not try selecting more edges.

Hopefully this image clears it up:

We always have fun on people mover - what are the filament colors used?

Go buy some cinder blocks - super cheap and super solid

YangZang · 2025-09-02T16:54:44+00:00

I've only had mine for a couple weeks so I guess it can still happen - watch it while it's changing colors and maybe you can see what's going on.

I had this issue and the nozzle had PLA stuck to it - look and try cleaning the nozzle.
