Were the move reasons explained? I'm out of the loop apparently...

I like the little shuttle golf carts in Japanese airports: each cart plays a different tune as they drive along.

Nah.. It's easy.. My previous mk3s+ had hundreds of awwsome PETG hours.

Can I assume from your response that you have a mk4 or mk4s with this issue then?

Thanks..It's a good point. I've updated the post photo, and I'll add the worse failure mode elsewhere.

If you wanted to customise the starting gcode, I'm sure you could.

A typical output with PLA.with Zoffset = 0

[–] snrkl@lemmy.sdf.org 2 points 1 week ago (2 children)

I can get adequate results with Zoffset or LiveZ +0.04 with smooth sheet and PLA.

PETG is still variable results for same settings, z+0.01 is ok some of the time, others it is still terrible, and still sees filament build up, so if printing real things, it eventually blobs, and has a (bedArea - printArea) chance of then causing a collision.

+0.02 means no bed adhesion, and I can't actually get a finished first layer.

This is one of the worse failure modes I have experienced for this issue. In this instance, the extreme amount of "squish" leads to extreme filament buildup on the nozzle, eventually causing colisions and removing chunks of the FL test.

Is anyone else having HORRIBLE problems with their Prusa Mk4 or Mk4S first layer quality...

My mk4s developed a problem that Prusa spent 3 months troubleshooting with me where the first layer is being laid down too close, and so filament blobs, then prints fail.

Eventually, they advance replaced my whole printer, and the new one had the exact same problem out of the box..

I managed to find a bug that was raised on github for this exact issue, with 22 other people registering "mee too" for the issue..

I'm just looking for some feedback from the wider community to see if any others have hit this problem?

 

It is self propelled. It took me a quarter of the time to do our lawns as it normally does, so I had time to trim the hedges...

 

My desk is very messy. I thought it was just "average" clutter but a colleague made a comment the other day that changed my feelings on it.

I have a sit/stand desk, so I need drawers that can attach to the underside..

I've decided to design some and make them with my 3D printer. I have to split it into 4 parts as it is too big to print it all in one go.

I've printed three of the parts, and just restarted the 4th print as it failed aboit an hour into the seven hour print job.

Mowed the lawn today.. (lemmy.sdf.org)

We've had weeks of alternating torrential rain and super hot sunny days that have both prevented me from mowing, but super charged the lawn growth at the same time.

The lawn was almost a foot long after not being able to mow it for 14 days due to the weather.

I had to empty the catcher on the mower every 10ft, and I made so many trips back and forth to the green waste bin with the catcher, I got my 8000 steps for the day.

It normally takes me an hour to mow the front and back lawns, but today it took me three and a half hours. The last two hours were in the dark, and I had to mow with a pair of torches...

It's nice that it's done now, but I'll have to mow again within the next 5 days.

 

I've evolved from bifocals to trifocals. I didn't pick new frames, as Iike the ones I had before, so I just got the same frames again. I got these ones with lenses that go dark when you wear them outside and clear when I come back in. This means I'm not constantly swapping glasses when I come inside, or go outside...

 

Reading posts from this community pleases me in ways I have struggled to explain or define.

Until I realised...

The dull men's club is is the antitheses of the escalating deluge of drivel from self dubbed "influencers" on social media.

This community celebrates the every day but does it without the hullabaloo of attention grabbing junk we are surrounded by these days. It does it quietly in a dignified manner... and I find that.... comforting...

Also: I cooked bacon and egg breakfast for our teen kids and all their friends this morning. I cleaned the kitchen before sitting down to eat my own breakfast. I decided to clean first, as this way I get to sit down and not get back up. Cold breakfast was a small price to pay for being able to drink my coffee and read the news, knowing the kitchen is done, and I don't need to get up again....

 

Updated template. Had no idea on who the knucklehead from the original template was.
