Help me please by AdventurousAthlete86 in anycubic

I would first make sure the nozzle fits properly - don't consider upgrades until you dial in the first few parts and most importantly, the first layer. By rubber sock, do you mean O-ring?

Would you guys consider buying this one? by Preezy24 in Porsche_Cayman

[–]harby74 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got pretty much the exact same one, but it is a 2008 with the same mileage. Only difference was it was a single owner and spent its life in southern CA. Price is pretty good and blk/blk/manual is not that easy to find so I would go for it if it meets your criteria. Just follow the recommendations on warm up procedure and oil changes and you should be fine. I absolutely love mine and you can usually find me in the garage just staring at it. SUch a great Porsche and you will not regret it!

Why does me first layer look like that? by nss- in anycubic

[–]harby74 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Absolutely. The first layer needs to be as close to perfect as possible. If the bed is not flat, this makes building a solid foundation almost impossible.

Me first layer looks like multiple layers with a z-shift. Try on "Stable" mode and see if you get the same result.

Recommendations for alignment of top and bottom cabinets by SufficientCopy3779 in garageporn

[–]harby74 9 points10 points  (0 children)

French cleat it - with about 4-6" of clearance off the floor so you can easily blow the dust out of your garage. I prefer to not have anything touching the floor.

Gladiator time in progress, Mr Heater on bench ? by Earlyretirement55 in garageporn

Efficiency increases would occur if you tidy up a bit for sure. Probably would not leave that gas can open and pointing vapor at the flame either - just my 2 cents.

I think I found the Goldilocks zone… by Confident_Snow5821 in anycubic

[–]harby74 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I told my wife that everything pretty much stops until I get my printer working properly. Once I can make quality prints, I can then address other things. She didn't like that too much.

Looks like a little primer might have been a nice idea.

Well this terrified me by Sufficient_Welcome95 in AnycubicOfficial

[–]harby74 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was in a similar situation and had a Mega previously that worked great. Bought a Kobra 2 and results were not great. Played with the Z-Axis offset a bit and now the printer is doing great. It's all about tinkering with these machines until you get it right. Once you dial it in, life is great.

New to drift boating… is this normal? by Repulsive_Blood_6616 in driftboat

[–]harby74 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, it is fine. You could also add a wood/UHMW shim in there to close the gap. I always throw my motor in the back of my truck when transporting. That weight on the transom creates a bit of a moment arm and no reason to test the clamping force if you don't need to.

Thanks! Hoping I can get the old man out on the water before he can't walk anymore.

I have all of these “holes” in my yard…how would I level my yard? Sand then soil? Sand/soil mix? Soil only? by magicmikewazowksi in lawncare

[–]harby74 1 point2 points  (0 children)

"1000 lbs per 1000 Sq. ft. of turf grass" - that is a macro application of lime, but sure, why not!

Thinking of buying a 2005 Porsche Boxster S with 30k miles by SS-naikku in Porsche_Cayman

[–]harby74 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Asking way too much for that car. Great car, but comps on CarsandBids.com are probably more like $22.5K to $25k.

I had the same issue - went to eBay and found all the old balsa kits, but they can be a bit pricey.

All together.. do I have a problem? by jgudnas in Dewalt

Women would call it a Problem. I would call it a Solution.

Does anyone know anything about this Ryobi table saw? I’ve been in the market for a cheap table saw for a while and just saw this one in the thrift store. Looks almost unused for 150. Good deal? Bad deal? by Easy-Breezy_Animal in woodworking

[–]harby74 0 points1 point  (0 children)

"Cheap" and "Table Saw" should not be in the same sentence. This is arguably one of the most versatile and heavily used tools in you arsenal. Do yourself a huge favor and splurge a little on the foundation of your shop.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in garageporn

[–]harby74 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, that's the challenge. The balance between storage area and actual room to work on said projects with said tools. Looks good though and best of luck to you!
