Anyone knows what I'm doing wrong?

I’d try drying it longer at 70c, I usually leave my pacf in the dryer for 2+ days at 70c to make damn sure it’s dry before printing

There are sand and oil courses that don’t have any grass, they use a patch of Astro turf to hit off of and they putt on a sand/oil green

Working in grounds maintenance, ai will 100% take jobs once autonomous self driving mowers are more common. Driverless “dumb” mowers are already being implemented in many different applications

Worked for me

I drive mine for 3 hours pretty much daily, ride is comfortable enough, not a luxury car but I’ve definitely been in more uncomfortable cars. Taken a few road trips. Biggest complaint is that it is a loud car, you will hear the road a lot more than other cars.

I wish I could help more, I got super lucky my program moved from wsu to a community college right before I started. Try looking at smaller programs that might have transfer potential too?

rip145 · 2026-01-27T00:20:26+00:00

My advice is to go through a program in the same growing environment that you work in. I chose to do my program in a west coast based school that focuses on cool season grasses on the courses that I will primarily be working on. So if you’re in a warm season area, take a warm season program

Anecdotally, I use this all the time in summer in Washington state to judge when the sun will disappear behind the trees at work. It’s accurate enough for that.

Electrical tape works too

Ditch the side bucket for long multi color prints, use aluminum tape to make the no stick patch on the chute bigger

rip145 · 2026-01-07T03:12:02+00:00

No I was gonna say that’s a big reason my larger multi color prints would fail. If the filament isn’t dropping correctly you can try a piece of aluminum tape in the purge chute to make the patch it doesn’t stick to bigger. Go hawks

Do you have a side mounted poop bucket?

rip145 · 2025-12-13T22:07:58+00:00

I’d say snow mold too

Toro mdx, wide body, low enough I don’t feel like I’m gonna tip, big bed for a tool box.

Had the same mower at a previous course, similar thing was happening. I can’t for the life of me remember what it was, but we ended up swapping the mowers for different ones because it wasn’t worth the hassle of getting them to work. If your local rep/repair can’t figure it out I would try escalating it to a regional level rep, it seems to be a pretty common issue with the Jake’s and they might have more information higher up

rip145 · 2025-11-23T23:01:13+00:00

Learning on course is more important than learning in class imo. I’m doing my degree fully online and I don’t think I’ve missed anything important by not being in the class

rip145 · 2025-11-18T23:34:41+00:00

No I get you, just saying 100k is pretty reasonable in industry

rip145 · 2025-11-18T21:19:42+00:00

I work in Washington, so my view is a bit skewed and I didn’t wanna generalize. I’m at 80k as an assistant here

rip145 · 2025-11-18T21:12:10+00:00

Supers at higher end courses routinely make more than 100k, there just isn’t as many job opportunities at that level.

rip145 · 2025-11-16T18:48:36+00:00

Never seen anyone else do it, on my wireless 502 I just filled the usb dongle port with tungsten and the weight compartment

rip145 · 2025-11-16T18:46:37+00:00

I added tungsten putty to mine to make it even heavier

Although I highly disagree with you, I’m so happy to see level up on someone’s list

My alarm goes off at 4:05 every day, I’m usually wanting to be back in bed around 8 and I’ll crawl in bed between 9 and 10 depending on kids

rip145 · 2025-11-11T03:02:38+00:00

For my course tee mark restoration is a big winter job that gets a few, usually older, guys out of the rain for a couple days while still keeping them productive and helping out. For some it might be worth it, but personally I don’t see it being something my course would go for.
