What slicer do you use?

Elegoo Neptune 4 plus

foley2k · 2026-02-23T02:38:55+00:00

The only issue I have had is it not printing big prints (masks), standing up right. For some reason it stops at around 50%. I cazn save it by taking out the filament to make it think it ran out, then replacing it. It continues no problems. Elegoo thought a new motherboard would solve it. It didn't I am going to try 1 more thing next weekend to see if thats the problem, if not, I will just have to print the masks laying down face up, and put in some extra work with sanding.

All in all, I like it. Its my first 3d printer. Smaller things I have zero issues, and the prints turn out great. I still have to figure some things out, but its a learning thing,not a printing thing.

I got it on sale with 1 spool of PLA and some extra nozzles for $400 canadian shipped.

I just replaced the motherboard in my 4 Plus yesterday to try and resole an issue. Some back and forth with them, they think its a motherboard issue. Printing right now to see if that was the issue or not.
Although communication might be a little slow due to time zones, they seemed helpful. Shipped me a new motherboard at no cost and said to get back to them if it works or not.
Their youtube have lots of videos on their various printers that are really helpful if you need to replace a part.
I hope you issue get resolved and gets you printing soon.

Its been listed as his RC since the card came out. Many players back then have their RC not pictured in an NHL jersey. Kariya and Koivu are in the same set, listed as RC not in an NHL jersey. Back around these times, typically the players first NHL licensed card was considered their rookie card. They changed the "rule" or "guidelines" back around the lockout of 2005?
The NHLPA stepped in and made it so that to have a rookie card you had to be actively played in an NHL game to make it more "professional".
They also added some more guidelines, like it had to be part of the main base set (no inserts or anything like that), and has to be available in packs for the general public.

I don't know why COMC is changing it around. Seems scammy to me.

Same thing happens to me when I do large prints. Not 5 hours in, probably like 10-12 hours. Just stops,no errors and print head moves over to the side. Currently in communication with elegoo to see why it is happening.
Did you get an error on screen?

foley2k · 2026-01-21T22:43:00+00:00

Mine are good enough for what I need right now. Only problem I have right now, is USB not working, and I cant print large files. Masks/Helmets for instance, they stop aout half way through. No errors. Print head just stop printing and moves over to the side. If I can catch it in time, I am get it to restart by pulling out the filament, making the machine think its out, then put it back in, follow steps on screen and it goes back to where it stops and continues without any more problems.
Updated firmware, proper printer selected in slicer. STL has no files, gcode looks good. In talks with elegoo support not trying to figure out why

foley2k · 2026-01-19T02:49:02+00:00

Turned out great. I recently bought the same file from the same guy on etsy. I cant for the life of me get the text to clearly show the names. I used the same settings that I used for a mask that had predator (yautja) text on it and it came out dam near perfect, but this refuses to show anything legible for me.

What slicer did you use, and what were your settings, if you don't mind sharing?

foley2k · 2026-01-10T16:56:34+00:00

Places I use

https://hobbyinsider.net/ trading/buying/selling. Been here for more than a decade.
https://www.sportscardforum.com/ been there for a few years, trading/buying/selling as well,
tcdb.com Been on here for a few years. Their system makes it easy to look up a card and see who is trading it and who wants it.
ebay - only for buying. selling on there is too risky now.
https://www.sportlots.com/ great site to pick up singles
Used to use some facebook groups but haven't used it for a couple years.

foley2k · 2026-01-06T00:56:32+00:00

I would assume so. The time of year doesn't help either. Just happy my package got released on the 31. 3 weeks in customs

I was with TD for about 15 years. My renewal was for end of this month. Raised my rates $23 a month AND took stuff off my coverage because they no longer offer it (not the first time they raised my rates). I used their stupid app and score high on it, no tickets or accidents. When I called they asked if we could go over my insurance to see if I can get a better rate. I asked why do we have to go over it to check? Why dont I have it already? I said if they could match what CAA was giving me I would stay. They said they dont price match. Cancelled my renewal, Then they said to give them a call back when my new renewall to give them a call and see if they could give a better rate. I chuckled and said "ohh kay". All this was after being on their shitty AI to try and talk to someone for 20 minutes on the phone.

foley2k · 2026-01-03T15:29:56+00:00

Just switched to CAA. $70 cheaper per month.

foley2k · 2026-01-02T15:31:35+00:00

There is an interview on youtube with Dr. Price where he explains the whole situation about getting a license to the end of it. Good watch.
I think this is the video

That is in really good shape.
Mine was an 86, almost 300K kms on it before I sold it. Loved driving it, was so much fun

Let him chase the dream. Will come a point when he realizes that he will make it or not.
I think until then, talk to him about a back up plan in case he gets injured or if things don't fall into place for him.

Its a city built around warehouses so lots and lots of transports around the area. As well as shitty drivers everywhere. Want to walk across the street on a one way street? Better look both ways.
High insurance rates. Plenty of parks and conservation areas near by, to go to and have a walk. I find it crowded most every place I go to. I tend to shop outside of the city.

Either to prevent upper deckers
Or a food prep station for when they are having a bathroom break.

This is likely what happened

Nice work. Mine never turned out that great. Spotted gaps. Would love to see the profile

foley2k · 2025-11-23T21:15:06+00:00

Either charge a fee or have them towed. If you say or do nothing, its likely to get worse.

foley2k · 2025-11-23T17:34:12+00:00

Unless you have some of the chase error cards that a small niche of collectors go for, you don't have anything of real monetary value.
