I’ll second qidi, I got my x-pro back in 2018 and it came with instructions on tpu before you could reliably get tpu filament. My box has been printing like a dream ever since and they’ve even helped me do a bunch of custom mods. Last time the provided full spec measurements for thee extruder head to me, before they they provided custom cura specs for a machine modified with my custom kit to help troubleshoot an issue I was having. Literally, they modded their own machine with my files to help me out.

Best company I’ve ever worked with.

Any movie where Cage “acts” mentally unstable is going to be the best fucking movie that year. I still can’t get over his role in Color Out of Space.

I’m literally upset to find out this isn’t the lyrics, that’s the one part of their imagery I loved.

Have you ever like, genuinely listened to RHCP? Lyrically speaking it’s shear unbridled nonsense with maybe three songs that actually have any coherent sense or meaning. Californication reads like someone put a bunch of tabloids in a shedder and then glued every full word they found to craft paper like a ransom letter. And even still everyone from my grandma to the local homeless credit it as a good song.

I genuinely think they got stupid high and accidentally discovered a memetic hazard that they’ve been using to make 90% of the population believe they write good music.

Pigs. Pigs take one generation to revert to feral state and are naturally pack hunting, intelligent, omnivores. Right now Texas and Florida is dealing with cases of hogs pulling apart horses to eat. There are cases where the hogs followed hunters home and trashed the place in retaliation.

It’s a testament to our hubris that we’ve kept pigs and dogs for so long. Dogs won’t recover, but pigs only need a year to come back for blood.

Don’t forget that adult otters are known to maul and rape baby otters for fun.

There’s currently a case being studied in the US south that looks like CWD jumped to humans.

Folks, we have a serious problem. A national embarrassment. You’ve all seen it—Sleepy Joe Biden stumbling around, forgetting his own name, sniffing children who aren’t even there. You know why? Because he’s not real. That’s right—the Democrats cloned him. A cheap, defective knockoff, probably made in some basement lab by Hillary.
But here’s the good news: I’ve cracked the code. If they can clone a dementia-ridden puppet, then just imagine what we can do with my DNA. The strongest genes. The best brain. Tremendous bone structure. And that’s exactly what we’ve done.
That’s right. My army. The most loyal, most powerful fighting force in history. Thousands of me. Millions, maybe. And we’re sending them to Ukraine to end this war in one day.
Think about it. Zelensky sitting there, thinking he’s tough—wrong—when suddenly, thousands of Trumps drop from the sky in gold-plated helicopters. We land, we look around, and we say: “You’re FIRED.” And just like that—war over.
Negotiations will be short! Damn right they will. Because when you’re dealing with one Trump, you’re dealing with the best. But when you’re dealing with a million Trumps? Game over.
Now, the fake news is gonna say, “Oh, Mr. Trump, cloning is unethical!” Really? Then explain Biden. Explain the deep state’s secret clone labs. I’m just doing it better.
And when my Trump Legion secures Ukraine—which, by the way, I’ve always said I could fix in 24 hours—we’re gonna rebuild it. Trump Tower Kyiv. Trump Resort Crimea. The best deals, the best hotels, tremendous room service.
So to the globalists, the RINOs, the haters—your time is up. The Trump Era is just beginning.
God bless America. God bless cloning. And God bless all the little Trumps.

Gonna say, best put a ring on that.

I went to catch a falling board with my foot, turned out to be a plow blade. I still don’t understand how it didn’t shatter the bones in my toes.

I don’t own one of these but I took a look at the specks and I’m pretty confident I can give you some pointers.

First and foremost, you need an enclosure petg is going to cool way too fast if they thing is open air. My best advice would be to shove it in a closet or build a cabinet around it if you’re so inclined. The mega printer I’m working on is going in a converted curio hutch.

Second, there’s never enough adhesion. If you’re running pla, put a good layer of pva glue down on your bed before a print. Between that, texture and brim you should get a hold. If you’re not worried about playing fast and loose, you can print your first layer tight to the table for just a smidge more grab.

Lastly, I think the other poster is right about speed, taller parts get shakey. The housing will help with this by preventing ambient drafts, and you can use to to prevent frame shake if it’s sturdy enough, but going slow is always a good idea.

I used to use the heated bed to brew tea while I was modeling. Poly makes a good cup.
