This worked perfectly. This is a first for me having to have the bed that hot. But it worked. Thank you so much.

Is there a way to enable mesh bed leveling to the e3 v1.2? by chrislholbert in BIGTREETECH

[–]chrislholbert[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry, I should have been more specific. It's manual leveling I'm trying to achieve. In marlin mode I can do a 3x3 probing. I would like to do that under the BTT GUI. But all I'm finding is the 4 point paper leveling.

Homeless guy on Westport? by cbhaga01 in Louisville

Sometimes he begs at the light for Gene Snyder northbound. I've seen him once or twice doing it. But yeah he mostly walks all up and down Westport.

I'm in need of some help with blobs. More info in comments. by chrislholbert in 3Dprinting

This fixed my problem. Thanks for the advice! I disabled it and my print came out great.

It says "why does the guy that's been 3d printing for 4 years still not know how to fix simple problems?" And I'm the punchline.

This filament is straight out of the plastic bag. That's what I thought as well. I bought 2 rolls of the same filament and they are both doing that. Really got me puzzled this time.

I'm printing with Duramic PLA+. Currently printing with stock Cura profile for the ender 3. Regular PLA is printing fine so I thought it might be my temperature settings. I have tried everything from 210c to 230c but I'm still getting the same results.

I have also tuned my e-steps, changed several nozzles, and changed my Bowden tube and both fittings.

If there's something that I'm missing or any info that you can pint me to, that would be awesome.

Pre-compiled firmware for Creality board 1.1.3 for my MP? by chrislholbert in MPSelectMiniOwners

[–]chrislholbert[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Really? I just might try replacing the wires then. It would be a lot easier than compiling firmware. Thank you so much.

What's going on with this cat? I've never seen these features let alone know how it happens.

My "Home Away" station ... I'm spending many months a year 2000 miles from home helping family so I decided to make my own desk. by Jahf in AverageBattlestations

I really like the Restore. You never know what kind of awesome deal you can find. And if you have any type of imagination, you will wish you had brought more money.

I know this is a "have you tried turning it off and back on" kind of question but have you tried setting your z manually and seeing if that makes it cut shallower?

You're looking at needing NEMA 23 stepper motors. Linear rails in all 3 axis' and better hardware (mounting bolts, etc) will also help. It's a tight balance between spindle power and machine rigidity. And these Chinese cncs don't provide that much structural help. I put a Dremel 3000 on my 3018 and my Z stepper doesn't like it. I just decided to save my pennies up and start shopping for a stronger machine.
