There are a lot of posts that don’t load the images in the app, but show fine on the lemmy.world website. It’s not just limited to the Garfield community. Is this a Lemmy.world issue or Boost?

Build process is 99% complete. I taped on the panels initially using painter’s tape so I could print the skirts and a few mods in ABS. Several mods are already in place, including Nevermore, panel clips, picam mount, Rock-‘n’-roll, and LEDs. I had a TFT50 screen sitting around from a defunct Ender 5 that I swapped with...

Finished everything up assembly-wise. Still lots of tuning to do, but I’d say this first print looks phenomenal for not having done any tuning other than Klicky+calibrate_z

Some below deck electronics done too. I’m so close I can smell it

Had a few setbacks since last week, including needing to relube the belts with a more appropriate grease. Also, one of the parts for the clockwork 2 was busted. I can’t print ABS yet since I don’t have an enclosure, so I opted to print the clockwork parts in Fiberlogy PA12+CF15. PA12 is OK according to the Voron print guide...

Also got it belted up, but found out afterwards that I used a grease that is controversial on the rails (superlube with syncolor). It’s recommended by LDO and Nero3D uses it in his video, but many folks on the Voron Discourse say it’s a no-go. I’d rather not risk it, so I’m uninstalling the rails, cleaning/degreasing...

Just installed the bed on my 2.4 last night. Lots to do yet, but it’s starting to look like a printer!

I've got a SodaStream with an adapter to hook it to a 20 lb CO2 tank. Rather than buying the stupid expensive SS drops, I put between 8-12 of drops of these in. They've got a ton of candy flavors and most that I've tried are quite good!

Caught this little guy in by front yard two years ago.

If you didn't already know of it, filamentcolors.xyz is a website that collects swatches of 3d printing filaments to help people choose colors. They prints swatches of filaments colors, analyse their spectral contents, and create approximate hex values (among other things)....

Near the eastern shore of Oahu from my vacation back in February.

Taken about a month ago. They are quite rare in my area. He must have just been passing through, because we saw him for a day or two and that's it.

Kind of blurry since I had to zoom with my phone. He was chattering up a storm! We also have a feeder made specifically for orioles, but he really digs the hummingbird feeder...

I have some Fiberology PA12+CF15 blend (link) from a long time ago and recently got around to using it. I am amazed to say the least! It prints easier than PETG, even without an enclosure. Only downside is that it is much more expensive per kg, although it is lower density so I don't seem to be going through it as quickly as...

I didn't purge enough material on some of the colors (white/black to red), but overall I'm happy with the outcome....
