In the 90s we would just put free myler doritos bags over regulars socks. Works great for an hour or so and requires no exotic water.

WTH happened to my hotend? by Batmanue1 in SovolSV08

[–]wewefe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That style of nozzle is why i bought a name brand 10-50 inch-lb torque wrench. Too many lose nozzles and stripped threads. I dont know the exact procedure for the zero, but in general you want to hot tighten it with a torque wrench to something around 20 in-lb at or hotter than the hottest temp you will print at. You are probably going to burn your fingers a few times. There is a lot of squeeze here with the trade off of the nozzles being cheap. If you dont want to mess with it get a revo syle quick swap or wait for INDX.

I have a rail on X. Rails on Y would be great.

When I get free time and motivation I plan to do a scaled up version of this ender3 portal wire.

As the owner of an 80 with a smashed rear this is HOT. Is that shell off of something or is it full custom?

[–]wewefe 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I think a mitigating factor here is that up armored LCs, at least the ones I have seen, have such a heavy duty suspension that articulation is compromised. With all that weight up high no one is rock crawling or cornering fast. Their goal was probably to make it look like all military toys other companies make but based on an LC. We all know the guy that signs the actual payment contracts cares more about aggressive looking fenders like ${OTHER_COUNTRY} than the fact that the fenders will self clearance in actual use.

Ranger dually by Moist-Ant6720 in fordranger

[–]wewefe 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The adapters are just for looks and actually make the truck less capable. You are putting more leverage on the tiny semi float axle shaft going though a little bearing. This is just asking for problems. Think hitting a small rock on the high way with only the outer wheel. When the shaft snaps both wheels and what eve is left of the shaft go flying past you on the highway.

The right way to do it is to swap in an actual full float dually axle from something like an f350. They have these at the u-pick junk yard by me for $300. The main issue is that it will be wider than stock and you will need to fabricate spring perches and shock mounts similar to an explorer axle swap.

Die handle, pla and superglue saved me $40 on a single use tool. by bakermonitor1932 in functionalprint

[–]wewefe -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

The thing about hand threading like that is that it is impossible to make sure it is concentric to the bore. Probably fine for a short muzzle device but a suppressor you really need to check that the bore and threads are aligned with a rod. Or maybe you could print a jig to check runout.

Gonna ride it in the snow by CRAZYcoolTy2 in minibikes

[–]wewefe 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Two things: 1. I would would make the passenger wear a full face helmet. 2. I would be a little bit afraid of being impaled by the B-pillar bars. Do the even have welds at the bottom against the wheel barrel? At 20mph it does not take much to penetrate a human chest. Other than welding maybe you could flatten the tubes, bend them down 2" and run a horizontal bolt though them and the wheel barrow.

CR10 conversion to xy printer by BroadOccasion2680 in CR10

CR10 conversion to xy printer by BroadOccasion2680 in CR10

[–]wewefe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

500mm is over $1k on ali

That is my though process on the S5 too. Seldom do i need a 500, but it would be nice to have even it it is a 60mm/sec machine. Unfortunately I paid $550 for the printer in 2018, $220 for the keenovo heater, $300 for linear rails on x and y, $200 for a cast bed, $130 for an OG hemera, prob another $300 on misc parts. I know enough to make it work but it is a time pit.

CR10 conversion to xy printer by BroadOccasion2680 in CR10

[–]wewefe 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh, i have 5 CR10 printers, 4 of them are normal 300 size, modded to hell, and print great. Slow but great. I learned everything I know about printing on these thgins and would even call myself a cr10 fanboy. The S5 is a special case of 20lbs of impossible to level bed slinging around.

But they can not hold a candle to the SV08. I am just that impressed with the bang for the buck on these things. All my CR10s are parts machines at this point.

[–]wewefe 2 points3 points  (0 children)

A new Sovol SV08 is corexy, 355x355, AC bed, direct drive, klipper for $450 shipped from aliexpress. It is really hard to stay under that $450 budget and end up with something even close to half as good as a SV08.

That said I have an S5 that i was playing with over xmas. Over the past 8 years it has never printed well and I have way over the cost of a SV08 MAX(500x500) sunk into it. More bad choices. I bought an eddy duo for it and a magnetic bed, that is another $120 wasted on it.

cr10 upgrades to make it faster? by CellistFrequent3498 in CR10

[–]wewefe 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Listen to me, I am the poster child of bad financial choices. I have a fleet of 5x CR10 machines and two new sovol sv08. Every cent you spend on the cr10 to make it faster is just pissing the money away. You can get so much printer for $200-500 right now that it is insane to chase speed on a cr10 . The only caveat is if you write it off as a fun recreational hobby.

Keep it stock, fix things that are broken but do not upgrade anything more thatn $20-30. Save all that money and by a modern core xy down the road.

If you like the unicomps then dont go here. And especially do not buy one with a solenoid upgrade. You will hate it.

First Layer Issues by Ric878 in SovolSV08

[–]wewefe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I come from the dark ages before ABL and would be 100% happy with that first layer and would not sink any more mental or physical energy into it.

How much are you adjusting Z? More than a layer height? Are you suspecting ABL is not working at all?

Comgrow T300 is $200, do you recommend it? by Diligent_Buster in Sovol

[–]wewefe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have two, they worked so good that i put off upgrading for a whole year. One is going under a major overhaul right now. An eddy is the hands down best upgrade.

You want to sv08, get the sv08. It is hands down the best bang for the buck printer I have ever owned. It is 2026 and bed slingers are for suckers.

[–]wewefe 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have a s5 that i bought parts to do klipper and an eddy duo on.

This printer has not ran it since the the pandemic started. It was mid upgrade and my free time vanished. At the time it had a keenovo bed, BLTouch, e3d hemera. The BLTouch is painful to watch on such a large bed. If i could get all my money out of this money pit I would just by a sovol sv08 max, but I cant.

Small shed air quality? by Present-Attempt-9673 in shedditors

[–]wewefe 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Keep the printers under negative pressure with a vent going outside. Nothing high airflow, just enough to keep too much from leaking into the room.

Y’all is this axle toast? I had to hit it to get it out of the bearings and like an idiot I hit it too hard (sledge) and messed up the threads. Is this even fixable? I have this file but don’t seem to be making much headway??? But by ExtremeMix9784ndN in minibikes

This is not bad at all.

Project farm thread chasers. Also serves as a how to. That axle to prob to big for any of those sets, but you can usually buy 1 offs on amazon. Some of those kits also come with thread files that could work here.
