Really anything, but skateboarding is my favorite if I had to pick one that brings me the most peace
Isn't it a link aggregation site? I feel like that's the point...
There are definitely communities that focus on that, though. I know I personally enjoy the local text posts and comment interactions as it reminds me of the good old days of browsing vBulletin forms all day, but lemmy is kind of a different beast in a lot of ways
I watched a few videos on adjusting flow rate and ended up checking my e steps and they were quite a bit off. After fixing that I did a single wall cube to test flow rate and the measurements were right on.
I printed my test piece again and it is way better. I did slice this one in the regular Cura and not the Solvo version since that's what I was using to generate the flow tests but I had all the settings pretty much the same.
Thanks to everyone for the help and suggestions! I will be tweaking my flow and support settings a bit more I'm sure but for now I'm happy with the result
I've been getting some problem layers with this filament, especially on flat pieces like this. The first layer is always good, but flat layers (top and bottom) that are not on the bed are not great, like the filament is sagging and not connecting to the lines next to it, regardless of if they are supported or not. This one was a flat layer (completely horizontal) that was fully supported with the zigzag supports from the sovol version of cura.
I know ideally I wouldn't have totally flat overhangs like this but with the piece I want to print there isn't really a way around that other than printing multiple flat parts and gluing them together.
I am using a Sovol sv06 and overture PLA. I did not have this issue with the sovol silk silver pla.
I've tried leveling my bed again and I think mu z offset is OK because the first layers look good. Currently I'm printing another temp tower and will try some other calibration pieces but any help is appreciated
Really happy with the sv06 - having way too much fun printing all the little fun things, and functional parts too!
I got rid of my alarm clock because the led screen was too bright. My phone charger has a bright blue light on it so I have to cover that up to sleep. I almost want to set up my bedroom with no electronics at all but I don't think my wife would go for it
Thank you!
I messed around with blender for a couple of weeks wayyyy back in the day. Mostly, I have just been following some fusion 360 tutorials on youtube for the last week. I know I am not using all of the tools available, or at least not correctly, because some of the things were just not working right and I had to re-do them several times to get things to link up properly. Thinking back it was probably more like a couple hours of modeling..
The tutorial I've been following is Learn Fusion 360 in 30 days from Product Design Online, which is fantastic, but when I'm not following along directly it's hard to remember all of the different tools that he uses to make things work. I'm sure I'll get comfortable with it eventually. It's a really fun learning process though.
The working video is an imgur link - I wasn't able to get it to embed with Lemmy but it's here: https://i.imgur.com/7DofLyP.mp4
Just a clip of the assembled controller showing that the wheels on the car respond to the input
The printer (sv06) just arrived yesterday and it has already saved the day for my kid.
His RC car stopped turning, and after taking the controllwe apart I found that the piece that actually turns the box inside was broken
I measured everything with my calipers and struggled with it in fusion 360 for like an hour, had to make adjustments and print again, and finally got this:
Put everything together and...
Success!
Sovol sv06 arrived yesterday and after about 30-45 minutes of assembly I was printing this benchy.
There was an issue on the back buy overall I am really happy with the print for this being my first ever print and doing only the out of the box calibration of the printer!
Beetle Adventure Racing for the n64.
Specifically the battle modes. The chaos of a bunch of Volkswagen beetles launching rockets at each other is a core memory for sure.
It's so good. Into the Breach is also fantastic
That is super cool! I want to try printing some minis but not sure how they will turn out on the printer I ordered. It's not a resin printer. I may do character tokens instead.
Hey, I'm still in my 20s... for another 3 weeks. Also, Software Engineer for over 10 years...
For me, I really miss the old school internet forms where it was all just people nerding out about the same stuff and providing useful information because they cared about the interest and the community.
Reddit used to be like that but now it's like any other social media platform.
Everything is becoming algorithm driven endless scrolling packed with ads and promoted content with very little focus on the community and actual information. It is just an app you use when you want to turn off your brain.
I'm brand new to lemmy and stuff like it but I'm hoping to find something closer to the classic internet. Not sure if that's what I'll find here but reddit sure isn't that any more, and hasn't been for a while
That looks super cool. Do you have to have a special kind of setup to do multiple filaments in one print like this? I've just ordered a printer so I've got zero experience and didn't even know stuff like this was possible
It's my favorite deck. I absolutely love the shape and size
