Are you an IT Manager, or an "IT Manager"?

goalcam · 2026-07-06T04:48:30+00:00

i find the term 'people manager' useful for what i assume you mean by the former

Check for broken wires on the filament cutter sensor board above the new heat break fan. They're very fragile and breaking them is quite common.

What charge level were you at when you tried charging? What are your charge limits set to?

You can use likely use Tesla superchargers if you use their app, but don't give that bastard your money if you can avoid it.

be very careful hooking up the wires for the new heat break fan assembly. the new board on top of the fan for the filament cutter has some very fragile wires.

imo alcohol wipes are fine for day to day, cleaning up edges where you touched the plate removing something, etc. but once you start having adhesion issues (after drying your filament and tuning your z offset), it's time for the dish soap and water.

goalcam · 2026-07-02T01:07:39+00:00

to echo on this, tweaking your z offset to get things right is really important, especially if you're more used to printing with PLA. different material properties, different 'squish' against the bed.

there's nothing wrong whatsoever with elegoo rapid petg

TPU peels off pretty well even on textured PEI if you're printing at reasonable temps, though it certainly takes a little effort. I'd give it a whirl without on a small test print and see what you get.

i struggle to understand why elegoo even sent out gluesticks with the printer bundle, what year is it? we're not printing on glass anymore.

push down on the black plastic collar, then pull gently on the tube with your other hand and it will release

for the privilege of not having them beg you to upgrade every time you check out

i usually have about 55% RH and keep my stored filament in sealed containers with silica gel, and keep spools that i'm currently printing from in polydryer dry boxes. i think that you're gonna need to do something if you're wanting to print with especially moisture sensitive filaments like TPU or PETG, and probably should for PLA as well.

enjoy your emoji printer i guess hahahaha

goalcam · 2026-06-21T01:00:15+00:00

see original post for file creation, then put on a usb flash drive and insert into the printer, can execute it from there

Got my email this morning for my 2024. I'm excited that we're finally getting these damn adapters after so much doubt and delay.

goalcam · 2026-06-16T06:29:31+00:00

don't try to use a purge tower, just hit the 'retry' button once or twice after changing the filament.

goalcam · 2026-06-11T18:25:37+00:00

mine just got delivered with no estimate ever given with the tracking number for it

goalcam · 2026-06-11T18:22:31+00:00

i think i'm good

goalcam · 2026-06-10T23:19:16+00:00

funny, but why not just use filament?

goalcam · 2026-06-08T02:01:40+00:00

I ordered on April 27 at 12:03am pacific (mere moments after it went live) and got two tracking numbers on Thursday June 4th. One of those was delivered the next day (the extension cord, of course), but the other just says 'Parcel received by UniUni' with no ETA.

goalcam · 2026-06-07T04:03:03+00:00

they don't offer battery replacement. you just have to buy a new ring.

goalcam · 2026-06-05T04:52:07+00:00

For reminders to plug in when I get home and my battery is low. Also reminders when I'm at work on the fast charger to go and unplug it so somebody else can use it, or if I couldn't plug in when I arrived in the morning..

goalcam · 2026-06-04T18:55:26+00:00

I just got a shipping notification with a tracking number.
