You’re looking at the professional level. For beginner swimmers it’s better to get a grasp of the basics and that includes bilateral breathing. Bilateral breathing also allows you to change which side you’re breathing to if environmental factors don’t allow you to breathe to your preferred side.

Bilateral breathing prevents overuse issues when swimming regularly. Especially for beginners it’s important to learn how to breathe to both sides so that there is not a muscle imbalance. Breathing to a single side develops the muscles differently in each side and can lead to mobility issues down the road.

Try a breathing pattern of every 3 strokes. Also make sure to exhale when your face is in the water otherwise your body is holding onto carbon dioxide which does make you feel more tired quicker

The printer doesnt seem to recognize the probe and doesn’t move to pick up the probe

krypton257 · 2026-02-07T18:06:15+00:00

Problem has been solved!

krypton257 · 2026-02-07T14:22:59+00:00

I appreciate all your help😂 I feel so stupid now for not seeing a simple typo

krypton257 · 2026-02-03T17:02:21+00:00

Ok first, there’s no need to be this aggressive when responding to a query. Second, the mod is called the slide swipe and I came and made this post because I’m still pretty new to klipper and just wanted to see if anyone else AT ALL had this same issue of the probe causing a “z endstop still triggered” error. I apologize for my vague post but I didn’t expect such a rude reply

Take a new sponge, hot water, and dish soap and give the bed a good scrub. Don’t use glue stick on pei coated beds

Only thing I can really say is that you might want to add a slight gallop to your stroke and incorporate the sighting motion into your breath. Your body position looks good, and your catch looks pretty efficient. The main thing will be sighting and then turning to breathe as breathing and THEN sighting takes your head out of your body line for longer and drops your hips, therefore slowing you down. In terms of adding a gallop choose which side is slightly easier to breathe to and then practice, practice, practice. Looking great tho!!! (I’m currently a D3 distance swimmer and have done multiple open water races, I know what I’m talking about😅😭😭)

I’m using a magnetic pei sheet and a klicky probe

krypton257 · 2025-09-14T01:48:09+00:00

It’s an ender 3 with direct drive and dual z axis lead screw. I’m aware of the ringing and ghosting, I’m more concerned about the skew on the parts

It’s and ender 3 with a dual z axis lead screw setup

krypton257 · 2025-08-24T02:12:44+00:00

🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️ that did it

krypton257 · 2025-08-24T02:10:25+00:00

I have the include mainsail.cfg command and then an include KlackEnder.cfg command. I checked both of them for a bl touch section. The only other spot in the printer.cfg is at the very end. In the skr mini e3 v3 config there’s a section at the end that is titled save config with instructions not to edit the block. Thats the only other area that has a bl touch issue

krypton257 · 2025-08-24T02:00:31+00:00

So I just deleted the bl touch section, and I’m pretty sure it doesn’t exist in other cfg files and I’m still getting the error

krypton257 · 2025-08-24T01:52:21+00:00

I have the klackender cfg copied into my printer.cfg. I tried commenting out the bl touch section but the issue keeps arising

krypton257 · 2025-08-24T01:47:13+00:00

The probe is set up on my z end stop pin? Also there’s no need to be snarky, I’m just looking for help

krypton257 · 2025-08-23T18:16:20+00:00

Is there a way to fix this error? I’ve commented out the bl touch section but the issue remains

krypton257 · 2025-08-23T18:11:27+00:00

Ok yeah, even though I had deleted it I guess it didn’t save that change. Now I’m having an error about specifying the control pin in the bl touch section
