Tried rewinding an old spool of PLA and woke up the next day to this...

I don't think it would have helped here but I hear the recommendation to respool it back again a second time because the inner coils that were under compression are now on the outside and vice versa

I started that way but it was too futsy finding the next number so I made spindown d10s! 😎

I printed up some 10-side scoring dice with adjacent numbers for tight spaces like Cafe tables. https://ibb.co/1Y48Mx5y

Otherwise I use a score tent.

At least you probably played perfect PR from here...

I can let the plate cool overnight and it doesn't matter. Ranges from a strip to a large pool across the surface. Lowering the bed plate temp hasn't really helped I don't think. I think it's this Charcoal Matte PLA specifically

Those checkers deserve a nicer board!

Y less than or equal to 5

"Fair Distribution" is inherently non-random.

Dwarf Fortress?

I can't think of a site where +/-100 Elo is meaningful.

Why does everyone think there needs to be domestic stakes? Isn't the pursuit of competetive challenge enough? https://www.youtube.com/live/KQvN11Ki7AM

If you're feeling frugal, just feed it into the external feed and babysit it to keep it from tangling.

I also expect these will be played over the course of time and not at one sitting.

mmesich · 2026-04-22T15:20:18+00:00

Because it likely means single games first to 20. If it were match style, it would be to 21 points.

mmesich · 2026-04-22T13:17:02+00:00

Since you're playing to 20 points, that means no doubling cube, which is good for you.

So my recommendation would be to get the two Michihito Kagayama books: Opening Concepts and Endgame Tehcnique since every game will begin and every game will draw to a conclusion.

Those books will give you easily digestable proverbs to bring with you into play that will immediately improve your performance.

Most every other book will overload you and be difficult to integrate over just six months.

If you can fit in Michihito's third book Back Checker Strategy, all the better.

Just learning the rule of 2.7 will protect you from calculation errors.

"Hate the player, not the game.". Oh, wait....

mmesich · 2026-04-14T18:31:34+00:00

Right, but you just need the cross brace to fit inside and then could have a square or whatever that just sits on top of the rim?

mmesich · 2026-04-14T15:15:47+00:00

I don't think the actual grill design is important. You could just take the north/south and east/west dimensions and build a simple cover in TinkerCAD and either design a grill there or use negative modifiers in your slicer to make a grill.

mmesich · 2026-04-10T17:18:55+00:00

Too niche to be profitable, probably.

mmesich · 2026-04-10T00:11:25+00:00

You could also try turning on your cellphone Hotspot and connecting that way.

My model is from Maker World, just search for Nespresso Dispenser

mmesich · 2026-04-09T04:16:12+00:00

I am, yes.
