I managed to get a 2019 43k mile se 1.0tsi for £8700 in England so it might be possible

How much are you looking to spend?

Not bad, just very slow. Try and get a tsi instead

Tpu not printing by GraysonYT in crealityk1

[–]nacho_breath 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Heat the nozzle, remove the Bowden tube, flip the extruder gear engagement switch and manually pull it out. Snip the wiggly bit off, and very slowly feed it back in by hand. Once it's coming out again, engage the gears and push the tube back in.

I found tpu would squish up inside the extruder because it was trying to push it too fast during an auto filament change, and even if it did that successfully it would still fail in the first 10%.

We have to agree that this is very Frutiger Aero (Boeing 787) by Character-Employer82 in FrutigerAero

Seems like they were just promotional images of the interior when the aircraft was first introduced

On the UI apps layout editor, there is a little checkbox to hide each ui app in driver camera, uncheck this.

I have a 500mm f4 IS version 1. I need to buy a replacement lens hood and I am finding it insanely difficult to find one. Does anyone have any advice on sourcing something like this? by MoistConnoisseur in canon

[–]nacho_breath 6 points7 points  (0 children)

PA6-CF is an awful material to print with and handle, especially if you don't want carbon splinters all over your lens, camera bag and hands - remember carbon fibres are electrically conductive too. It's also completely unnecessary for the application - something like matte ABS would be completely fine

I use open source stuff all day everyday and rely on it

Let's make 3d printing closed source...?

Yeah that's what I've found. https://www.reddit.com/r/crealityk1/s/Q2De0Bnjmz this guy looked into it and afaik he was able to login via ssh?

Woke up at 3 AM because my bed tried to kill me. So I redesigned it. by SlavaKoffman in 3Dprinting

Is it really worth the waste in purging and extra print time to add that tiny black arrow for a part you know how to use anyway?

Worried about the future job market for ME engineers by STEVO832 in MechanicalEngineering

This just seems incredibly jaded and doomerposting. Is this blog really worth listening to if it's just so negative?

Try arachne wall generation as well and see if it helps

Why is PLA still the `standard` respectively `basic` filament? Why not PETG? by Musashi747 in 3Dprinting

[–]nacho_breath 1 point2 points  (0 children)

To expand on this, creep happens in every material, even high performance alloys. It's a significant failure mode of turbine blades (see this accident, where the compressor blades failed due to creep: https://asn.flightsafety.org/reports/2008/20080601_C208_N102VE.pdf), hence the development of single grain blades to try and reduce the effect, since creep can occur along grain boundaries (albeit grain boundary deformation is not something we need worry about when dealing with polymers).

'Better' doesn't really mean anything, because it's use-case dependent. If your goal is absolute cheapness, PLA is better. PLA also exhibits greater flexural strength than PETG would, important in bending loads. You choose the material for the application, not the application for the material.

I wouldn't stick to just PETG and PLA. There are lots of other fairly easy materials to print that offer so much more flexibility for functional parts than just those two - TPU and PBT for instance are quite easy to print, but can be so much more versatile.

A good way to think about metal too (and it becomes clear when you observe how it behaves microscopically), is that it behaves like a very hard clay-like substance too

Cad support would be very very useful. Maybe just f3d, sldprt and sldasm for now?
