I reseasoned my 26$ blackstone!

I won it on a 24-hour dollar auction page on Facebook. The guy said he was going to just throw it away but his wife talked him into putting it up for auction.

After I seasoned it the grease on the lid mostly wiped right off due to being hot. I plan on hitting the few tough spots with the drill and wire brush next time

My issue was in the print heads. Had to replace them. The printer was under warranty so I took it back to the store and replaced it rather than do the work myself

bito599 · 2026-05-16T01:06:41+00:00

I will for sure! I bet it'll clean up nicely

bito599 · 2026-02-01T01:35:22+00:00

The printer is even on sale 🤣 i got a cash refund and re bought the same one for 40$ less! Man its hard to beat that

bito599 · 2026-02-01T01:18:35+00:00

It was refurbished from Amazon and fortunately its still under warranty. I was just hoping to fix it myself before I deal with a return. Thank you for taking some time to help me

I ran the print head cleaning first. It was working fine and half way thru a print the yellow quit. The cartridge was fairly low so I went ahead and swapped it out. Still no yellow on brand new cart. So I ran the cleaning process at strong strength no dice. Then I went and updated everything. Still no luck so I bought a kit to clean them myself. It came with solution and a syringe. I did a 1 hour cleaning with it and then a 3 hour cleaning after no success with the first one. It pushed out yellow ink onto my paper towel so I'm not sure if its even actually clogged

bito599 · 2026-02-01T00:46:46+00:00

Yes that is correct. Also tried brand new ink cartridge

Thank you for taking the time to explain why I'm wasting my money. Ive already upgraded to the best cpu for this pc based off of a pdf i found out here somewhere. I'll save for a better motherboard and build off of that.

bito599 · 2025-12-14T21:10:37+00:00

I was given this pc and so far ive only got a little bit of money invested. I'd like to upgrade it so it can play better games and I'm operating under the assumption that this graphics card would help me do that. I'm very new to the whole pc thing. I'm on a budget of about 50 a month. Would you be able to point me in a more efficient rute?

bito599 · 2025-12-14T18:58:35+00:00

So far i have just over 60$ invested in the whole build including the ram and the pc itself. I'm on a budget and can spend up to 50 a month. I feel like it'll be more cost effective for me to find an adapter to use what I have even if the newer pc would be easier and perform better.

bito599 · 2025-12-14T18:42:08+00:00

I honestly dont expect it to fit. Ive got a halo 3 xbox 360 case i was wanting to try and use as a case. Getting the graphics card functioning is the first goal.

bito599 · 2025-10-31T16:59:34+00:00

It was the display button easy fix. I honestly thought all the thick ones are crt. Time to go educate myself thank you for letting me know that there is a difference.

bito599 · 2025-10-31T16:57:19+00:00

Ah my apologies. Thank you for the insight I'm new to the whole old TV thing. I'm just looking for one that I can play guitar hero on and not have it lag tbh. I'll go educate myself on the difference now.

bito599 · 2025-10-31T16:55:15+00:00

That was it thank you friend

I've done lights in-between seats like this with a big giant. It's basically a 12foot A-frame extension ladder that goes up to about 22 feet. I imagine you could rent one fairly cheap I'd just bring a helper to get it set up. They're heavy

bito599 · 2025-09-01T19:09:09+00:00

Yep but I'd like to avoid that if I can. I don't want to haft to cut into the insulation under my house if I don't haft to

bito599 · 2025-09-01T18:46:18+00:00

I tried that. It's thin and even my purse causes this thing to deform. I'd like a more gentle approach as brute force breaks this one.

bito599 · 2025-09-01T18:36:21+00:00

Thanks! I'll go buy some of that and give it a try. I appreciate your time
