I’m currently running an Elegoo Neptune 3 Pro (Currently $159.99 as of writing this). Elegoo is a generally good brand, they’re copies of the Ender series basically. Since you’re already used to Linux, look into Klipper which is custom firmware for 3D printers. You install the firmware onto the printer, then do all the heavy lifting on a separate computer (A Raspberry Pi in my case).

The Bamboo printers are basically closed source from what I understand, but I think I’ve seen some open source mods recently for them.

For filaments, PLA is very strong but brittle and will degrade in the sunlight. PETG would be a step up. Strong with some flex so it doesn’t shatter, and holds up better in the heat than PLA. ASA would probably be recommended as well, but I’ve yet to mess with that.

They are not

They’re similar, but used for different purposes. According to UC Davis (University of California), these are the differences

We’ll burn that bridge when we get to it

That’s not even what the phrase is

It’s likely prepping for loss of income from Google

So far foil seems to be smoothing things out. Not great, it will take some fiddling with, but it’s working!

Yeah, no bed screws on this one. I’ll need to upgrade this bed at some point, that’s for sure. The foil is a good idea, I could put it under the PEI sheet in the front right to bring it up the smallest amount. I’d be able to bring my z-offset up a bit and have a semi-consistent first layer that way

Reminds me of PhotoshopBattles

But that’s a goose!

Edit: hjonk

I love Elegoo’s printers. Got a Neptune 2S and a 3 Pro tuned and running Klipper, they’re good workhorses

Looks like nice even pressure, good job! It looks like you’re underextruding a bit though

Same, popped up while in the middle of Satisfactory

It may try to connect to open wifi networks instead, maybe

It’d be cheaper, sure. But that assumes anyone actually wants to run things locally. My VP is an elderly woman who would love to get off the Board as well. We just don’t have volunteers to run things. I joined up so our HOA didn’t get handed to a lawyer to run, which would cost even more.

Prior to having a management company, the HOA treasurer embezzled about $40,000. It’s the reason they got the management company in the first place.

Getting out of it is the hardest part for us right now.

We’re in a small 28 unit condominium, so our dues go towards insurance for all buildings (only exterior, have to have our own for studs in), water, lawn service, management company, etc. Our dues are almost $400/month.

Yes, per month. It absolutely blows, especially when we’re trying to sell our unit and it’s been on the market for almost half a year.

I’m the HOA president so I know what all our expenses are (and have fought to keep increases to a minimum, including negotiating the community water bill with the water company), and unless we kick out the management company (Not going to happen) the dues are just going to stay high. We’re preparing to refuse an increase for the next year.

My guess is that it may not be factoring traffic conditions for bicycle directions

Yeah, this isn’t uplifting at all. It’s just sad
