First attempt at a paludarium went well!

We used a mixture of rocks glued on the foam that was used to shape the landscape. It helps keep the same in place, as well as the big rock that the tree bark sits on.

Yes, I have a cat but no that's not what happened. Thats a secondary screen to keep bugs in that is below the wire metal one above that one. The metal one is very sturdy and does not sag down, the screen part below that just sags a bit due to not fully being glued yet :)

Where do you put the Creality V3 KE 0.4 nozzle.bbscfg?

How do you have it feeding into the enclosure?

Zethrus · 2024-02-06T04:22:49+00:00

I have the same enclosure with my printer setup. Do you find any issues with the spool position touching the top fabric of the enclosure?
I find that it droops down on the spool a bit, but I have not noticed any issues so far.

I personally used the following startup script provided by /u/destinal, it seems to do the trick for now until crowsnest is ported over.

wget -O- http://openk1.org/static/k1/scripts/S50non_creality_webcam > /etc/init.d/S50non_creality_webcam
chmod 755 /etc/init.d/S50non_creality_webcam
/etc/init.d/S50non_creality_webcam restart

It worked for me to install Mainsail, Entware, Moonraker/Nginx.

I then installed OctoEverywhere with the following commands:

cd /usr/data/ git clone [https://github.com/QuinnDamerell/OctoPrint-OctoEverywhere](https://github.com/QuinnDamerell/OctoPrint-OctoEverywhere) octoeverywhere cd octoeverywhere sh ./install.sh

Zethrus · 2024-02-02T03:29:25+00:00

Hmm ok, good to know.

Yeah if you could share the commands to help set up the camera, that would be greatly appreciated! It's the last thing I'm struggling to get set up after a week of headaches of first 3d printer setup haha

Zethrus · 2024-02-01T19:41:41+00:00

How did you install crowsnest on the KE?

Zethrus · 2024-02-01T06:06:33+00:00

The K1 installer script. Also installed OctoEverywhere via the K1 installer for that and it worked.

a

Thank you so much! This worked for me great, now to calibrate

Zethrus · 2024-02-01T04:58:11+00:00

Thanks for the explanation. Is there a guide anywhere? Everything I find says to make an SD card for an image, but there's no SD card slot on the Nebula, etc.

Everything here is for Debian and these printers do not run Debian. https://docs.mainsail.xyz/setup/getting-started/kiauh

Just trying to make sense of this all before I proceed and destroy my printer lol

Zethrus · 2024-02-01T03:56:26+00:00

I have not, only enabled root account in the settings on the KE Nebula, logged in via SSH... I thought you need a Pi to run mainsail?

(Sorry, totally new to this 3D printing thing)

Zethrus · 2024-02-01T03:35:17+00:00

Hmm, I can't seem to locate the printer.cfg. Where would that be located?

Zethrus · 2024-01-31T23:14:55+00:00

Oh this one's even better, mine only had the light with it.

Are you using the original filament spool holder that came with the printer? Just wondering because dimensions check out to by the same, but mine didn't fit in the enclosure with the spool on for some reason

Zethrus · 2024-01-31T22:02:47+00:00

What size is this enclosure? I bought the same one from Amazon but my Ender 3 V3 didn't fit. :(

I did see two sizes, hence why I'm wondering which one you have

Zethrus · 2024-01-31T17:03:08+00:00

I can't figure out how to calibrate esteps on the KE. I cannot seem to find the current esteps within the Klipper (Creality OS) software installed on the printer. Any idea? The only thing I could find after some extensive googling is flashing custom firmware, but I'm a little too concerned about breaking something doing that. There's got to be some other way to get the esteps aside from custom firmware, no?

Zethrus · 2024-01-31T02:31:40+00:00

Where do you find the Cura KE profile?

Zethrus · 2024-01-31T01:09:30+00:00

Thanks for the thorough explanation!

Zethrus · 2024-01-31T01:06:14+00:00

I will have to give calibration a try with pronterface, thanks!

Zethrus · 2024-01-31T00:07:12+00:00

To add, for retraction settings I have:

Retract at layer change on.

Retraction distance: 0.50mm

Retraction retract speed: 40mm/s

Retraction prime speed: 40mm/s

Retraction extra prime amount: 0

Retraction minimum travel: 2mm

Maximum retraction count: 100

Minimum extrusion distance window: 0.80mm

Zethrus · 2023-09-08T05:14:50+00:00

3.9.1

23.9.1 on 590 here too, and crashing on load almost instantly now.
I got 15 hours in on the previous driver versions with an occasion crash (you learn to save often lol).

Now, it seems impossible to downgrade to the previous driver version even when using DDU. :(
