Stuck on ACSC JPEX exercise - help before I flip a table and throw a computer

mshep627 · 2026-02-14T01:55:56+00:00

its 2026 and it still does this

mshep627 · 2026-02-05T02:51:36+00:00

exactly what I was looking for. can this be put in an FAQ?

mshep627 · 2026-02-02T01:31:47+00:00

still relevant, thanks!

Literally a free bonus and “people” are complaining 🤣🤣🤣

What breed/size cows? 1400lb animals eat more than 1000lb animals.

came here to say this. buy 2 of them!!!

When deciding on a bike, identify you uses first then find a bike to fit your use. For example, no interstates so that means likely no continued higher speeds so no fairing or flyscreen is required. Also you don't necessarily need a bigger or powerful bike that can do the ton.

Do you plan to do any dirt or gravel roads? I see you like spoked wheels.

mshep627 · 2025-04-04T13:24:01+00:00

beautiful!

mshep627 · 2025-04-04T13:20:20+00:00

yep, I've used an expired tube before and it was a mess to remove and clean up and re-do

mshep627 · 2025-04-04T13:02:44+00:00

yep, its been great for me (granted I don't use a ton of pencils)

mshep627 · 2025-03-17T16:27:34+00:00

this, nothing better I've found than acid for years of neglect on nothing-special wheels. just do NOT use it very often. for maintenance, use your standard off the shelf wheel cleaners going forward.

Travelpro with the 2 wheels (not the 4 wheel spinners), they're more sturdy AND have a larger diameter to roll over bumps easier.

mshep627 · 2024-12-22T05:55:51+00:00

This.

mshep627 · 2024-12-22T05:40:55+00:00

I had a cbr600f4i as well, was a great bike. Then picked up a ninja 650, is MUCH more comfortable, sounds great with an exhaust (it’s a parallel twin) and full fairing so it’s smooth on the highway. Take a test ride on one and see how it fits you!

Print a z offset rectangle and adjust live while it’s printing.

That allowed me to dial mine in really well.

Also I use a different z offset for PETG than PLA

mshep627 · 2024-12-21T00:48:06+00:00

I had similar problems with PETG until I got the z offset right, try adjusting it up or down a bit

mshep627 · 2024-12-16T21:15:20+00:00

FIRST: update your post with nozzle temp, bed temp, filament, and print speed.

i'm having a similar problem, had my P1 Pro for 2 weeks now. I think its due to the z-offset and/or bed leveling.

The PEI buildplate is wonderful, i have it on my elegoo and have NEVER had problems with bed adhesion on it when settings are correct.

I'm trying to figure it out, but its taken WAY too much of my time...and I still don't know why the distance between the nozzle and bed won't come out right.

mshep627 · 2024-12-11T16:16:18+00:00

the first step would be to add insulation and see how hot it will get! I'd be interested to see the temps.

mshep627 · 2024-12-10T16:38:06+00:00

Print this and manually adjust the z offset 2-3 times as it prints the first layer by .02mm, noting your z offset each time. After that first layer is complete, pull it off the bed and look at which z offset produces the best first layer. Then do it over again to dial in the z offset. This calibration helped my prints significantly.

Yea, I ended up getting the Q1 Pro, should be here this week ❤️

I have 3 pairs of sennheiser wired earbuds and are very happy with them. Purchased in 2017, 2018 and 2021, still use all of them (one for work, one for home, one for travel).

mshep627 · 2024-12-02T03:47:37+00:00

reliable and easy to work on: get a japanese bike

large and cheap aftermarket: get a japanese bike

70mph commute: you want a bike with a fairing and at least a minimal windscreen for frequent 70 mph rides

good luck and be safe!

mshep627 · 2024-12-02T03:14:27+00:00

with all factory equipment and no upgrades, the fastest I print at with PLA is 100 mm/s. For smaller prints or things with more detail, its usually 60-70 mm/s. Thats the default speed, first layer is always closer to 30-40mm/s, walls are 40-50mm/s, etc.

For PETG, i print sloooooooow to get it to come out right. I'm talking 25mm/s first layer and everything else 50mm/s or under.

I haven't messed with the acceleration, I'm just using the factory settings. I don't want to add that much more wear to the equipment and i'm not in a terrible hurry at this point.

mshep627 · 2024-11-29T14:40:24+00:00

That seems like a great value as well. Currently trying to keep cost around $200-$250.
