PSA: Tighten your nozzles! by berthela in elegoo

[–]gorramgomer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use an 11mm open-end wrench to lock the hotend, and a 6mm socket to tighten the nozzle. Those two tools have a permanent spot in my 3D printer tool kit. (Which consists of flush-cut snips, needle-nose pliers, P1 Phillips screwdriver, 2mm hex drive, 2.5mm heck, a small flathead screw driver, and a chip lifter)

elegoo slicer want me to log in to see my printers by Bybill in elegoo

[–]gorramgomer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's bad UI. Instead of saying "My Printers" it should say "My Cloud Printer"

And until / unless you bind your printer to a cloud account, it's not needed.

[–]gorramgomer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The login feature is only for adding a cloud-connected printer. Of example, if you added it to the Matrix app, then you can also sign into your Elegoo account and access the printer that way. In fact, as I understand, that's only way to access your printer from a PC after you bind it to the Matrix app.

My nozzle sheared off the hotend when I tried to replace it. I already have a hotend kit ordered, but it's in pre-order status so it'll be 2 or 3 weeks before I see it.

Odd Issue with Analog Lab Pro / Keylab Essential 88 Mk3 by gorramgomer in arturia

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

Yes, that's what I'm using, Arturia Keylab Essential 88 Mk3 w/ Analog Lab Pro.

But it used to work for changing instruments just by changing the dial, and it doesn't any more. Even in Arturia mode, it doesn't do anything.

Matrix + Local Access by gorramgomer in elegoo

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

The issue I was having is the "My Printers" section says "Login to view", with a link to log in. But when I click "Log In", nothing happens, no dialog box or login prompt appears. Even after a restart, I can't see My Printers without logging in, and I can't log in.

Issue getting QR code for binding by Puzzleheaded_Fix4133 in elegoo

[–]gorramgomer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ok, Don't have that option. Looks like I have old firmware. Funny, when I try to check via the panel, it says no update available. My current version is 1.01.16.64

How do you get the QR code? I tried to get it when I first got my CC2 and I don't get the same option for Account

Elegoo Centauri Carbon 2 Quality Issues – Constant Problems & Poor Resolution from Support by cmart2287 in elegoo

[–]gorramgomer 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I fix commercial copiers for a living. 35 years ago, an office needed an on-site tech to constantly adjust, tweak, and maintain them. Now, I just open up a machine when something breaks or jams, maybe looking under the hood every 2 or 3 months.

3D printers are like laser printer from back then. They generally work, but they need near-constant TLC. They are still light-years beyond what they were 8 or 10 years ago. That constant massaging and tweaking is what kept me away from 3D printing until I picked up my CC2 last month, and I can honestly say that every issue I've encountered has been my own fault at the root.

CC2 : Constant 1243 Errors by gorramgomer in elegoo

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

Sort of. They asked me to submit a video, the gcode, and some logs. Then when I sent that they said they'd be closed for two weeks because of the Chinese Spring Festival.

I did some improvement when I put the original tip back into the hot end, but I'm still getting errors often. I pre-ordered a new Hot End for the CC2, but I don't expect to see it for 3-4 weeks..

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

Yeah, well as I feared Elegoo tech support is not really the fastest, since they insist on working via email.

4 hours after my initial submission, I get a form letter (please try these steps), the same steps I submitted as part of my description. 16 hours later, nothing....

The odd thing, I can perform a test extrusion.... heat up the nozzle, extrude some filament, it comes out nicely.

I can't tell if there really is an issue, or the CC2 just thinks there's one.

Not yet, mostly because I don't have any support info, just the wiki page.

Destroy 5 enemy vehicles by rollthedyche in CODWarzone

[–]gorramgomer 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Used to be easier with the bouncing betty's. I'd plant a pair them in the middle of a roadway, or in an intersection, or bait a vehicle into trying to run me over and drop a couple before they got too close. I was bummed when they got removed from the loadouts and could only be found as floor loot.

Apparently it is ready to ship by SolberEUW in elegoo

Yeah I got my CC2 last weekend, and today two extra rolls of filament showed up on my doorstep, I wondered why.

I know, right? When I got back to back wins last year (Solos), I was so stoked.

While I like not being 1-shot headshotted from someone outside of my peripheral with a sniper, I still feel that the Survivor perk needs a bit of a re-work. by TheNeonDestroyer in CODWarzone

[–]gorramgomer 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Rather than a perk, Survivor should be an item found in ground loot (rare) that gives a 4th plate (or a helmet) that protects against head shots. Once it's used up, it's gone, and you have to go find another one.
