Thanks for your input! I've gone down the systemd rabbit hole far enough to be somewhat committed to making it work. But certainly willing to try other methods. I'm enjoying learning more about linux but at the same time I really just need the shit to work though lol
Thanks a ton for your help! I'm not quite there but I feel like I'm learning more lol
With your help I have made the changes you listed as well as some other changes while trying to troubleshoot. In no particular order:
Moved ocamlfuseStartup.sh to ~/.local/bin/ocamlfuseStartup.sh because I now am more familiar with what an immutable distro is and does and also added the shebang. File now reads:
I am now getting (code=exited, status=127) when I run "systemctl --user status startup.service --now." Which I have googled and determined that it is now having difficulty finding the program or one of the dependencies according to the bash man page. I attempted to troubleshoot this error by adding the full location of the program /usr/bin/google-drive-ocamlfuse to the ocamlfuseStartup.sh file. I'm unsure how to proceed from here though. Once again, super appreciative of your help. I'm going to bed now though...
Oh I see. I'm still pretty new to linux so I didn't realize that tumbleweed was immutable and I guess it also didn't really dawn on me that I was monkeying around in protected directories as I followed along with various resources trying to understand the commands and things. I now see how that could cause some issues.
So I guess a better question would be, what is the best way to go about getting an immutable distro to run that command for me at boot? cron job? Thanks for your guidance.
How old is that spool? I use rapid PETG but I have noticed that print quality goes to shit quick when it absorbs too much moisture. Absolute garbage prints when they hit a certain point. Id crack a fresh spool to calibrate with and see if that remedies the situation.
Nailed it! I had every intention of screwing the carcass directly to the cleat but the enclosure made of one and a half sheets of 3/4 ply so it was very heavy and didn't budge even before I added the paver and the printer so I just never ended up doing it. 🤷♂️
As the others have pointed out, the biggest reason is ease of installation. I hung this by myself and I'm not sure how you would do it solo using another method.
Camera is next on my list! Now the only times I really check my printer is to make sure the first few layers went down alright. Once I can do that from my computer I will be unstoppable!
I know a lot of people online talk about running them in garages and basements all the time. Hell one guy in Canada said he ran one out in a shed. So while I can't share any hard numbers I think you would be fine.
I have read that that is recommended but I don't even know where to begin with that tbh. I just got this thing on wifi a couple weeks ago and printing from Fluidd along with switching to Orca Slicer have been game changers.
I don't have any build pics for you unfortunately. I would really recommend using at least 1/2 inch plywood for this kind of build though. I went 3/4 because I was worried 1/2 inch would vibrate too much. The enclosure needs to have more mass than the printer to reduce the risk of vibrations effecting print quality. Plus I'm not even sure what kind of fasteners you'd be able to use to secure 1/4 inch plywood that would hold the weight of a paver and printer.
I made mine with pocket holes and glue. Disclaimer though, I am a carpenter. I'd say this a pretty good starter project if you want to get on YouTube and learn. This is basically a cabinet carcass mounted on the wall with French cleats to give you some terms to research. Good luck! Just holler at me if you have any questions.
Just spit balling here. Maybe put your sensor in a ziplock or vacuum seal it and then put that inside your 3D printed box that way you get all the security without the jank look.
