Right now I have bunch of settings saved that results in a pretty decent PLA print, but it takes ages. (Layer of .15, print speed 50-100, gyroid infill 15%. Bed 60* nozzle 210). And I tried to print a tube to put coins in and it’s 5 hours. And the threads didn’t come out great.

Overhangs get me usually, but sometime later adhesion if I dare use the ultimate presets like “course”, even if I adjust the temp.

Also I tried updating utlimaker to the latest version, rather than the one it comes with, and then was a disaster that lead me down a rabbit hole to Orca.

Which was another rabbit hole that my partner had to emotionally support me through as the equivalents of “PCLOADLETTER” would trash my prints on a whim. Usually 3/4 of the way through.

I bought this printer to print dust collector fittings and adaptors for power tools (I lead a construction team and I’m pro-safety) and I can usually get a print strong enough for the job, if not pretty.

But I’d like pretty…I’d like to be able to fine tune a print so it’s sexy and strong and also didn’t take 16 hours… Boaty takes 20 minutes and o Looks good every time I print so I just don’t get why something not as complex and the same size takes over an hour and doesn’t come out as clean.

If not bambu, what do you recommend?

Current sovol sv07 plus user and facing this wall where I can’t decide if it’s a skills/knowledge issue or a hardware limit.

So… no coherent point. Thank you for clarifying.

Anyone can earn my vote by:

Prioritizing healthcare and social services (including education) Protecting basic human rights. Not being a shit-bag of a human nor tolerating them in government. Focusing on green economic growth.

I don’t base my votes off who can get me the most irrationally mad about issues that are invented or overblown. And while I have a whole list of complaints about the uselessness of the changes to gun laws here, the biggest one is how effective it is at mobilizing otherwise happily dissconnected voters into actually taking the time to go vote. It’s like 8d chess where the Liberals are looking for a way to get the Conservative vote out and found the key…

Exactly. How dare we …not…sell…OUR…Electricity! And how DARE we put tarriffs on things because the US put tarriffs on things first?!

Isn’t American known for its rugged individualism? They don’t need Canada, why would they use our roads or dare inconvenience themselves crossing into/out of our border?!!

This reminds me of the sov cit movement. Children with no understanding of the amount of effort and cooperation required for a functional society.

Do you have a coherent point to make or was that the attempt?

Asking as an rpal holder who finds the new round of restrictions poorly written and ill-informed, but that isn’t going to drive me to vote for an idiot like PP.
