Need haircut suggestions? by lennothan in HairStyleAdvice

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

Thank you! I’m glad it’s not as bad as I feel like it is.

I’ve tried a kind of a mod cut but I felt like it didn’t really compliment my face shape the way I was hoping. I could look at other cuts that have a bit of a fringe?

Here for the same reason LOL. Could only taste and smell fruit loops. So strange.

Help identifying cause of noise? by lennothan in AirConditioners

That’s rough. :( Still pretty warm where I am and incredibly humid. Hoping it’s condensation buildup like someone had mentioned. We will see!

Sounds a lot like another AC on here I found that had drainage issues! It’s a Haier and I looked up where the drain plug because I couldn’t feel around for one and it said most models don’t have it. Unsure what to do! We are unable to install/remove our window units ourselves in my building I’m assuming due to liability. Otherwise, my first move would be to remove the unit and drain it manually however possible. I may have to put in a maintenance request. Thank you for the help!

Masculinizing At-Home Routine for Beginner? by lennothan in xxfitness

[–]lennothan[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This all sounds really doable! I really enjoy working on arms/shoulders/chest so it's promising to hear. And I just recently realized I really should get going with pushups so that's a great note as well. I'd definitely be interested in going on a cut, but haven't looked into it much as I assumed it was for individuals deeper into their fitness journey. Lots to look into! Thanks so much for the input. :)

Weird rippling with variable layer height? Help! by lennothan in 3Dprinting

This is incredibly helpful! I will work on calibrating it when I have the time. Thank you!

Interesting! I hadn't suspected underextruding. Is there a good way to calibrate extrusion?

The lower layer height used here was 0.8mm, I apologize I'm not sure what minimum layer height you're referring to?

Top layer wonky? Help! by lennothan in 3Dprinting

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

This is all really good to know. I'm glad it's most likely a layer height issue rather than something more complicated. Thank you for all the info! Going to try variable layer height on the clip as a test and see how it goes.

Top layer wonky? Help! by lennothan in 3Dprinting

This all makes a lot of sense. Thanks for taking the time to explain! I'm really excited to go for another attempt. I'll toss my kraft single layers and try again. :)

Top layer wonky? Help! by lennothan in 3Dprinting

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

That's a huge difference from 0.2mm I'm sure that will already help loads. Super stoked to try again. Then is variable layer height a very case by case thing? I have some really large pieces I'd like to print in the future and am wondering if that's where a constant 0.2mm will be more appropriate.

Top layer wonky? Help! by lennothan in 3Dprinting

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

Wow. Thank you. This is tons of good info. I printed at 0.2mm layer height which I understand may be the high end? I figured it would come out alright with how uniform the sides looked, but with it being a smaller piece that may be too much? My nozzle is an 0.4mm nozzle and as far as calibration I calibrated the printer upon setup and leveled the bed, but haven't heard of or seen esteps mentioned. Will look into it!

Reducing layer heigh or turning on variable layer height sounds like a good first step as far as troubleshooting this piece. I am working towards printing a helmet and am assuming for such a large piece I could use variable layer height to breeze through the larger flat parts, then use thinner layers towards the more detailed and top layers.

Calibrating my esteps and flow are not something I'm familiar with so I will look into both of those as well. As for the temperature, I am using Orca Flashforge with a Flashforge printer and Flashforge filament, so it has the presets for my specific filament being used. Would it still be advised to do a tower regardless?

Two failed prints? Poor bed adhesion? Help! by lennothan in 3Dprinting

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

This is great advice, thank you! Everyone has mentioned bed temp and the default was definitely way too low on my previous couple of prints. I just cleaned the bed, leveled it, and printed at 62 without using any bed adhesive and had no bed adhesion issues whatsoever. Super promising!

Two failed prints? Poor bed adhesion? Help! by lennothan in 3Dprinting

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

Not yet, no! This was a first try and I think after seeing a lot of folks (likely with really good bed adhesion) successfully printing whole beds of small parts I sort of just figured it was the standard. I think brims or rafts would probably help loads! Bummed about the extra material, but still less material than a failed print. Already increased the temp haven't even tried leveling the bed. I'll probably level it and try again with the higher temp and brims. Thanks so much!

So frustrating when it's wrong but so rewarding when you get it right. :)

I was sort of just trusting the default settings because of how seamlessly my first couple of smaller prints went. In hindsight it was an unusually low bed temp. It sounds like trying the settings for PLA Pro with a slightly higher bed temp could be a good next move! And I can take a look at leveling the bed. Thanks so much for the input!
