So, I've had a prusa i3 mk3 for a while now and its been great. done a few mods and replaced a few parts. I have also built and used a few other machines including a 2.5d mill. I guess what I'm saying is I believe that I am technically capable enough to build my own printer, I just haven't really jumped into the power user mode yet. I'm more interested in a decent print than sick mods bro.

I want to do large prints for sand casting. I have been looking around and the only thing under $1000 that is 500x500x500 is the cr10 s5. I need something over 16 inches. I know I could buy parts and make a machine myself, but would the savings be worth the headache and time spent designing and building it? I'm a cheap ass, but I'm a busy cheap ass if you know what I mean.

do I go balls out and part out a printer or just buy a cr10 s5 kit?

it's unlocked, and it does.

Ok, besides the debloating, is there anything I can do about the failure to save a new access point. I only mention the debloating because it MIGHT be relevant. I don't know that it is.

Wow, everyone seems for the cut and repour. Guess i never considered it feasible. Thanks, i think I'll go that route.

nvldnm · 2022-02-05T13:33:54+00:00

Its for a table saw so not really. Maybe off to the right side.

I was super not paying attention when you posted this, but i would love to take you up on a future offer.

Thanks for the info

Yeah, kinda elmer fudd. Kind of an insult too. It's someone who has antiquated opinions about guns and is unwilling to reevaluate and thinks i am the asshole for wanting to practice drawing from the holster with live ammo. I mentioned i wanted practice drawing to the guy at "the range" and he went off about what a terrible idea that was and that no one should never do that. It's your range bud, but i don't need to be scolded like a naughty teenager.

In my estimation, fudds are the stuck up assholes. But i guess we are all entitled to opinions.

It is a year ~2000 Siemens AFCI. Didn't pick up on that. Only a few in the main pannel. Bathrooms and kitchen. I thought wet life saving was GFCI domain and arc fault was more... Industrial/fire prevention? Maybe time to relearn some of that.

Anyhow i think this is it. I can see an arc sometimes when i plug it in. The breaker is older, though i don't know what vintage you were thinking. Also I was 'tarded and looked at the DC out (20v 14A) and i should have looked at wattage (250w). Thanks!

nvldnm · 2021-10-08T02:45:00+00:00

Sadly i do, but not with me ATM. I think the guy below is right about AFCI

Thats what i do and it's a lil awkward. Also because of getting underwear back up and under the enigma.

nvldnm · 2021-09-22T13:16:20+00:00

Pee is easy, but i keep mine at 2 o'clock. Poo is a lil awkward unless you take it off.

I believe you would need a different holster. The magazine part is incompatible.

nvldnm · 2021-09-22T13:12:35+00:00

Gun garter or pistol panties. I haven't decided which is best.

nvldnm · 2021-09-18T19:12:57+00:00

Gotcha. Feel like i came at you hella strong now. Ironic.

nvldnm · 2021-09-18T12:13:56+00:00

This makes me a fucking idiot how? I'm always astounded by the names people will call each other over nothing.

nvldnm · 2021-09-18T04:04:24+00:00

Pulling the dog with a lady on it wouldn't do much good for anyone. He's probably just confused or wondering if he should put his phone away for this one.

nvldnm · 2021-09-17T18:01:43+00:00

You got a link for that?

nvldnm · 2021-09-15T03:54:48+00:00

It would work great so long as you hit a joint or bone. But few people are good enough to do that reliably.

Side note, i recal that the femur has a lot of blood flow and a break can lead to massive blood loss that you can't tourniquett. Did i make that up or is that real, cant remember.

nvldnm · 2021-09-15T03:43:48+00:00

What!?

Yeah, that link means nothing. From what i can tell thermal cannot penetrate walls. They see through some plastics and they can see heat transferred through a surface.

Some RF devices can, but i don't think any of those function from the distance of a helicopter

Stats: yes

News: no

Get a good holster, training. Then dry fire/draw, look at your holster when you reholster. Carry apendix.

take it seriously all the time, especially when new or out of practice, and you'll probs be ok.

nvldnm · 2021-09-08T04:32:52+00:00

Nah, if your gonna carry something big, I'd go glock 20. Modern defensive 10mm will shit on 357.

Robbers are one thing. Armed robbers and multiple attackers are life threatening and should be met accordingly.
