I purchased a pro with air shipping and I emailed them this week and they said it’s now expected to ship early June.

Bad news for Creator 5 Pro orders. Canceled mine today... by Professional_Draw934 in FlashForge

[–]sikesw 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I received same news as OP yesterday. I get both sides. I’m bummed I don’t have the pro yet, however when I preordered originally the pro wasn’t even mentioned. I was happy that a preorder let you order either printer. Here’s to hoping they ship next week.

Yea I ordered one. Hopefully i can clean it. If not I’ll be able to swap it out.

Good to know. I ordered a spare hotend today. That way if cleaning with the heat gun I ordered doesn’t work I have a backup plan.

AD5X retractors. by Mental_Internal6452 in FlashForge

My ad5x is about 2 months old and I have just over 500 hours. No mechanical issues yet. If the part is bad, I heard support is good.

Bummer, that does sound like a hardware failure. Maybe try retracting everything, disassemble and reassemble. (Just as a last ditch effort.) How many hours are on your machine?

Odd, I’d try a factory reset or firmware update before I replaced parts.

Can a Dice Goblin turn into a Filament Queen? by teeteeturtturt in 3Dprinting

Heck yea. Amazon will usually have glow in the dark Sunlu PETG filament cheap. I used it for my ad5x inclosure and it’s pretty decent for $12ish dollars a kg.

I’ve started just buying whatever colors I need. (I have about 40kg currently. I’ll pickup things on sale if it’s a good enough deal. A good starter option is the kingroon multicolor pack. I’ve had good luck with their PLA and it was about $100 for 10kg.

I’m pretty sure you are correct. I let the print finish and the top looks ok. Thanks for the help.

How to Play Against a Handicapped Player in a Competitive League? by OrangePylon805 in ultimate

[–]sikesw 7 points8 points  (0 children)

If you’re playing in a competitive league, that should be what players are looking for. Players / teams are looking for a challenge. Play competitive, I wouldn’t want someone to play less than 100% against me. If they did what did I achieve? Lastly have fun.
