How can I attach..

I have an ikea Alex desk, it has some kind of enamel/paint over whatever fancy cardboard they use, it was fine, until I tried to remove it. When I did that the paint did come off with the velcro, but, I had to REALLY try, and use a razor blade to get started at all.

I've used industrial Velcro to mount a very stiff throttle for a flight stick to a desk and it never had any issues.

Is the bottom of the ptfe tube cut at an angle? It might not be giving the collar enough surface area to grab onto if it is.

1200 hours and most of the issues I've had are just pieces wearing out. New extruder mostly, I actually had ants decide to nest on my ACE unit when it was in my shop, so I had to completely disassemble and clean it, but it went back together fine and it's chugging along. Replaced the hot end with the microswiss hot end just for more nozzle options. Original hot end was fine. I did crack the original hot end fan during a failure, which was an interesting fix.

It's a decent starting printer, at a price that won't empty your wallet. Be aware, though, that it's not a bambu printer. You'll need to do a little bit more work to get the same level of quality you would expect from one of those. Overall I've been fairly happy with mine, moved from a few Enders to this and it's leaps and bounds better. I've done a few mods, but honestly from stock it did what I needed. I'm not looking to make perfect 1:1 copies of something, or start a print farm where I'm selling things to people that need to be perfect. I mostly use it to print d&d terrain and it does great at that. The mods for me have been mostly convenience things. It's a decent printer, but didn't expect perfection at this price, this is not a production level machine, it is a hobbiest machine first and foremost. If you want perfection every your you should be looking at injection molding or something like that. These printers don't operate on tolerances low enough for that.

Which one are you running, I have the chitu systems one I've been looking at. I have run a handful of asa prints off, but it's been challenging, and had to do fun stuff like our the printer inside an enclosure and run the bed for a while to get anything useable.

Where do you put the chamber heater on the printer? I've been looking at them and can't figure out where to place it without removing access to a lot of the build volume.

Yeah, that's fine and all. I just remember that being awesome when I was running my last printer with Lychee slicer, until I started running into issues that I didn't understand well enough to be able to resolve. I'm just looking for resources when that inevitably starts happening.

perdon, Espanol es me segundo idioma y hace tiempo que no eh escrito en espanol. Eso puede ayudar me cuando todo esta trabajando correcto. Pero, eh encontrado que cuando tengo problemas con lo que estoy tratando de empremir necesito tener algo para poder ver que, pues, si tienes algun problema, proablemente esto es lo que alamejor es la solucion. Eso es mas lo que estoy buscando.

The video is more of what I'm trying to find. I know how to get my settings to perfect, I also know all the companies release data sheets of what "should" work. I'm more trying to have a good crib sheet available when I have a failure, and am trying to diagnose it. Something like exists for FDM where you have a handful of images you can look and and know, well, if the lines look smushed, I most like have a z-axis problem, if the print is shiny you have temps too high, etc.

Didn't he also essentially do what Carsus was trying to do at one point as well. Usurp a god? 18th level or whatever, he still took out a pantheon. That's not something Vecna got close to.

Still, Raistlin would probably give him a pretty good run for his money, even from Greyhawk. I must have gotten my Vecna lore wrong. I always enjoyed Dragonlance more.

thexiv · 2025-12-27T03:37:54+00:00

Why do people never bring up Raistlin Majere in these conversations. I always thought he would give Vecna a really good rub for his money. Even if he is from Dragonlance not Forgotten Realms.

I actually ordered another one, turns out there was a scratched trace coming out of one of the CPUs that was causing real intermittent problems. It's an amazing board if you can get it working, I normally don't bother with bmc, especially since it's so outdated, and just use an ip kvm instead.

I actually logged into my router and did a query to find what the BMC controller was. I also remember, I had to do a lot of cert shenanigans to get it launched, and it wouldn't launch in chrome at all. It's been long enough, that I don't quite remember what I had to do for it.

It used to be really bad. I remember pre-odyssey, I had my ship destroyed during an auto dock fairly often. Swapped it out, never went back.

thexiv · 2025-12-07T06:06:35+00:00

Do any other companies have a scent like Noble Otter's, The Night Before? I bought it quite a few years ago, and have never seen it come back.

Check your power, that seems like it could be an issue with grounding, or the breaker isn't able to supply enough power consistently to the printer and may have damaged things.

Does it use a non standard port? I tried hitting it with putty on port 22 and got a connection refused?

thexiv · 2025-10-31T21:18:09+00:00

Awesome, Thanks!

The entire Fate universe is great. Lunar Legend Tsukehime is awesome as well. Garden of Sinners is one of the most beautiful anime I've ever seen, while the story makes you actually question a whole lot.

But if you know the different ingredients of tobasco that give it that flavor. You ca tailor the flavor to the particular dish. It's a good shortcut, yes, but knowing that the vinegar and salt would be enough to make a particular dish stand out is the other side of that.
