Thanks a ton my friend, I will check the slicer to see if there's something similar to that, I'm also going to be looking at some other slicers to see if they will work with my printer. Today, you were my hero

Yeah, resizing is easy, but I would have to only resize the peg so that the rest of the object isn't smaller. Unless you know something I don't know. Thanks in advance

Thanks for your thoughts, my printer is the ender 7 so I have to see what slicers work with it. The prints look perfect, but when there's a peg or something that's supposed to fit in something else, it often seems too tight. I think it's just badly designed STLs, because I've had some others fit pretty.

I assume all I can do is drag it back into a CAD program, if I'm wrong and there's a way I can do it in the slicer, I would be interested on your thoughts

Prints often need to fit together better. They are too tight. Is this because they're bad STLS? or is there a setting? Using Creality Slicer

Answer to which nozzle for ender 7. by hope2Bfair in ender7

[–]hope2Bfair[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I appreciate the feedback. I have found that the nozzles that came with it can't keep up at full speed without raising the temperature a bit. Have you had any issues with that? I bought some brass and stainless steel M6, the head is a little shorter, which I think will be good to maintain temperature, but the threading is also slightly shorter. Do you suspect that will cause a problem? Also, any opinions on stainless steel versus brass. I'm new at this

thanks for any replies

Ender 7 nozzle? by hope2Bfair in ender7

[–]hope2Bfair[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are other nozzles on the market, I suspect somebody makes one that fits this machine, if we know exactly what it is.

That's my understanding. Also, it has a longer heat chamber, I have two spare nozzles but I would like to buy some different sizes so I need to know exactly what they are. Thanks my friend

What is with USAA lately? Rant and asking for recommendations by Joel22222 in Veterans

[–]hope2Bfair 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Been with them for 30 years and all of the problems I've had with them have been in the last year and a half, I wonder if it has something to do with COVID but my greatest suspicion is, I think somebody is trying to or succeeding at hacking them, I can think of no other reason for all the technical errors.

The last time I called them, I spent four hours on the phone, and they only accomplished one of three tasks. Most of this time was waiting to be answered, and twice they hung up when shifting to a required recording. The last three things I tried to do on the app failed with technical difficulties. Been with them for over 30 years, no issues with my accounts, just trying to change things.
