  • Last couple of prints have had subtle waves in them. Need to tighten belts?

  • If this is new, think you have a wheel adjusted too tight. When this happens, during rest it develops a small flat spot which translates to mechanical ringing in the print. If you let the machine sit for a while, then slowly move that axis, do you feel a bump where it was at rest? All of the axes should be smooth with no felt noise. If you feel noise, you'll see it in prints.

    If not, I would inspect your axis rails for any contaminants or damage, I used one of my printers so much I wore out the actual aluminum extrusion on the y axis and the bed was developing mechanical slop, which was actually difficult to find until I checked the bearing races.

  • I never made a claim that Lemmy was even remotely comparable to reddit in size. Just stating that reddit users fled to here, when reddit made staggering changes affecting many.

  • There was also DIGG. There were several large aggregators, but they all made changes that lead to mass exoduses to reddit. Back in the day there were sites like SomethingAwful, EBaumsWorld that served up memes and entertainment before we had purpose-built aggregation tools. Eventually reddit will make way for something else (and already has to some degree with its shedding of users to Lemmy).

  • Which Filaments are generally safe for contact with Food? What do you recommend?

    Jump

  • PETG is food safe. However! Because FDM is full of gaps, cracks, and voids, NEVER use it to store food that can spoil. Food bits can get trapped in these voids and present a persistent risk for foodbourne illness.

    Granulated sugar would be fine if it's kept very dry, however do note that said voids will not make an airtight container. So I wouldn't even use it for stuff affected by humidity or oxygen.

    If anything I'd almost suggest clearing the inside with a food safe platinum silicone, which should solve most of these issues.

  • Should I bother with raid

    Jump

  • Yes yes yes yes yes

    Raid1 that thing and sleep easier. Good on you for having a cold spare, and knowing to buy your drives at different locations/times to get different batches. Your head is in the right place! No reason to leave that data unprotected if you have the underlying tech and hardware.

  • What, you don't want to have to click more for the same thing? But the UI designer's feels will get hurt!

    I want to go back to the days of shitty UI's made by engineers that, despite looking like ass, NEVER broke and ALWAYS worked.
