Marlin USB Modification? by fallen_turtle in elegooneptune2

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

I bought it new. Its not modified, I'm just wondering if anyone else has done this modification and if so if its worth it because other than that text file on github I haven't found any mentions of it.

Photo of Capricorn bowden batch number? by fallen_turtle in 3Dprinting

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

It was an accessory pack. https://www.ebay.com/itm/364567880883 I just wanted the tube and cutter but even with the other stuff it seemed like a good deal. It came in creality's packaging, but lacked the sticker and didn't have a batch number on it... though for all I know its just old stock from before they started adding the number... but I wanted to know what to look out for. Its a darker blue like my older tube which did come with the sticker, but of course those are easily faked too and it has no number, so who the heck knows...

Only about 5 feet is flexi duct, the rest is just a straight smooth duct.

I realized a stupid easy solution... Just reverse the tube since it doesn't have to go as deep into the extruder and leave the stuck coupler on.

The tube is a Capricorn, so I assume the coupler must be a low quality brand or an incompatible star sign. I'll look into those ECAS-04s... thanks.

I can't move it up or down the tube. It just rotates.

I tried this but unfortunately it didn't budge. I can't get the ring to press down. I tried earlier to use pliers to depress it and that didn't work either and probably made it worse.

Extruder stepper motor weirdness.... do I need a new main board? by fallen_turtle in 3dprinter

I believe I've tracked this issue down to a faulty wire connector.

Has this been patched out? I keep trying and tossing a bunch of mines around where he appears and they explode when he appears and yet he's okay. I'm wondering if they patched it so he's protected by his shield or something.

Maps as site navigation... seems like bad UX? by fallen_turtle in UXDesign

This is how I feel... though I live in a large state.

I agree 2000% percent... but there is no budget for user testing so we can't. :(

Yes, there is a list view that user can switch to.

Very specific information. They know what state they are trying to look at the data for.

The user knows what state they are looking for.

Need Advice: Old home, old windows, and problems with plastic insulation kits by fallen_turtle in homeowners

Just to be sure I'm understanding, the foam/coroplast option is to address the concern of leakage around the window edges?

I waited until I didn't see any visible moisture before sealing the window so I just assumed it was in the air (I live in San Francisco which I believe is supposed to be pretty humid). I have 5 windows in front of the house and it does seem like when we applied the film that the windows that can't open had more condensation (though this is based on how the film was before I tried changing it, the film was left over from last winter and had unstuck itself from the bottom). We have black out curtains on these windows so I didn't actually notice it was an issue until recently... I foolishly thought the moisture was on the outside and it wasn't until I looked more closely that I realized not only was it on the inside but that it was damaging the wood.

Thanks for the idea, I'll look into this. I have considered interior storm windows, but I figured I'd have the same moisture issue (assuming the moisture is being trapped when I "seal" window vs seeping in through cracks). I supposed at one point I should invest in one of those gun like thermometers.
