Correct and sounds like the best of both worlds

I’ll grab a kitchen sponge

You can just cut 30x30 mm peace and zip-tie it over filament 😉

Enclosure will protect printer from dust and it will also keep the ambient temperature more stable. Dont make it hermetic sealed, better add few holes on the front and few on the back for example. I have a low rpm fan with dust filter because I mostly print PLA and in long prints (12h+) temperature can go a bit too high if there is no airflow at all. Keep in mind that enclosure should be removed sometimes for mintainance, removable sides is what you should look for.

You can leave filament on the printer, but if you dont use it for a long time it could get wet and then you have to dry it. Keep the rest of the spools in plastic sealed box or bag and put some silica gel inside.

Full calibration should be done once, but fine tuning when you face some issues or when you change to different brand or filament type. It depends how well the printer is assembled and how experienced you are, it can take only 5 min every few months, but begginers can spend days sometimes.

Extra tips: clean your rails and wheels whenever you can (once a month at least) for dusty garage. Get a kitchen sponge, drill a hole in it and guide filament trough the hole to remove any dust before extruder.

Welcome to the most fun hoby and happy printing!

If OP cant use more than one disk at once, how can they benefit from mergerfs?

Your cpu supports quick sync so I bet you are good without gpu. Try it yourself before buying one, you also drain less power

-4c is extreemly cold, get thermometer inside of enclosure and leave your heatbed on until it reaches 10-15C before you start printing. Even better get enclosure heater. Id also bump nozzle temp to the highest marked on your spool.

Why lower if you print everything at the same layer height?

Interesting. This is new to me and it looks like it could work. It could be usefull if you print with 0.6 nozzle at 0.6 mm width and then in a corner narrow it down to 0.4 mm

Im not afraid of command line, but also dont feel like linux guy yet. The thing is that installing and using some distros are way easier than windows. I installed POP OS recently and cant believe how smooth and easy it was. Average windows users might not need command line at all on distro like that

Casual users dont get on private trackers hehe. Joking, some guys were posting site that tracks when private trackers have open invites, hope someone will link again. Some trackers are almost impossible to join or keep up with their rules, but like torrentleech should be easy enough. Ive never used usenet since Im on private trackers for years, but I bet someone can recommend one here.

You can look for older redit posts about recommendation for both, but first decide what contet you are aiming for. Some trackers are just for movies, some are focused on music, but there are also general purpose trackers like torrentleech.

Oh I love this one. How are gateron switches compared to MX? I had shitty romer g on logitech and replaced it with another one with MX and its day and night difference

Private trackers I seed until Im running out of storage, public ones up to 1.2 ratio.

I used to upload some content, but dont have anything thats not already available anymore.

I did some donations to our fellow pirates tho

Better then pay for usenet instead of VPN. Not sure is 0% enough to protect yourself

Have you considered shimming your bed? Keep in mind that also X/Y rods (frame in your case) might be a reason for that. Flipping (rotating) rods might get you closer to a solution. Inspect each axis and plate individually (with light behind the ruller for example). Not the answer that you were looking for, but Id always try to fix the hardware first. BL touch is doing nothing, but only correcting hardware issues. Not needed if you fix them 😜 It will be easier with ABL on better tuned printer. Also you might find that you dont need one (hopefully)

Try another tracker like 1337x or even better try to get in some private trackers. Alternatively get usenet (paid service)

Thx!

Pihole + firefox + ublock for adds here. Im not using this, but its also possible to set your home server connect to VPN provider and then route all traffic through that. Then you can use your selfhosted VPN to connect with phone and use both at the same time. Or just enable add blocking on your VPN provider, I guess most of them have one

Same here, but its called gluetun 😉 it supports most VPN providers

Well I said much better UI, but its subjective.

Also, I think you can use octoprint with klipper fw, but never tried that. Mainsail+klipper is my vote

They are both good!

I believe they both have pressure advance and resonance compensation. With klipper you get option for much better UI (Mainsail OS in my case) and you can change your config in a web browser.

Not always. Its 5-15 k € for a license with 1 year of updates. Many small companies find a way just like students do. Its just more user friendly and more powerfull. Im afraid Im too old to see foss on that level before I die, but Im sure it will get there one day.

I love the idea of 3D CAD foss on lemmy. Im gonna follow and hope it gets better and more popular
