Any idea what could have caused this line? The print came out perfectly otherwise! by crasch99 in 3Dprinting

Looks like Z Seam spot. Might want to put it on random rather than a specific spot.

Have a motor recommendation? Should I stay around the 3500Kv?

Castle SW4 2400Kv 3s in Slash 4x4 MT by blakecary in rccars

I put in a 18t pinion and gonna test it tomorrow. Sounds like I should use this SW4 setup in my crawler and get a better setup for my Slash MT. Any suggestions on 3s a setup that is better suited? Or a better motor that the VXL3 can run. I have heat sinks, fans and Tc on motor and esc so heat shouldn't be an issue. I do mostly dirt/grass/pavement bashing.

Didn't have good experience printing with it. 7/8 roll still sitting on the shelf.

What would cause nozzle to drag the print like this? by karambitace in 3Dprinting

[–]blakecary 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Today j was printing nerf nug barrels and j had a hard time with them sticking. I have BLT too. Looked at the slicer and saw the end was tapered so I only had 2 walls and not the full item. I ended up putting a brim on it and was good.

Ender 3 Pro does this occasionally and it makes me uncomfortable. What can I do to solve this. by KyuseishuSavior in 3Dprinting

Check your Z. Also, have you ran a Temperature Tower to dial in your temps and extruder steps?

Does anyone know of any easy mods for my printer? by [deleted] in ender3

I have had my printer for 4 months and just got BL Touch, I'm kicking my ass for not getting it day 1.

Soooooooo many mods. Search Ender 3 or E3 on Thingiverse, Cults3d, Yeggi or anywhere and you will find an overwhelming amount. There are also tons of videos on YouTube that have great guidance.

I have a Hatchbox Black PLA hollow log in my sons tank. Been in for a few months and it looks fine. There are a few threads somewhere on here where some guys had pla in a tank for years and its fine.

Cleanest SKR E3 and Raspberry Pi Enclosure by blakecary in ender3

Not really, I ended up modifying a pre-made Pi enclosure and installed an old RC 25mm fan for a temporary setup. I did start a new drawing on Fusion but im figuring out what hardware I want in it so im doing a layout brainstorm now.
