jdupes: it's great software. The author left GitHub not because of Microsoft, but because he refused to implement 2fa on his account, which GitHub made mandatory.
In my limited experience the speed a rust complied executable runs is highly dependent on compiler options. By default (from what I remember), rust includes a ton of debug info in the resulting program. With the correct compiler flags you can strip all that out and programs run very close to c speeds.
Exactly. I don't know the expected life span of 3m 468mp but apparently I exceeded it in my environment and duty cycle. I'm still working on getting the residue off of the bed however, and I can say that where it stuck, and did not fail, it did an excellent job, even pulling off bits of silicone with the glue.
Custom. It started life as a tronxy x5sa-400 but I think only 2 steppers and the frame are original still. I changed the bed to a 16"2 *3/8 thick aluminum tool plate about 5 years ago. It always worked well for me. Unfortunately the silicone mat I used doesn't seem to be made any more. I'm going to try one meant for a creality cr10 S4. I may have to re-machine the mounting holes for the thru holes on the mat tho.
I don't know. I've use this method several times and I've never had a problem. I probably should have specified that I'm in the states so 450° f versus 200 or 210° c that your printer runs at isn't a huge difference. Sure. You run the risk of some fumes, but your printer is already belting the plastic. In that temperature. You need to go a lot hotter than 400° in order to set it on fire. It's a lot safer than using a blowtorch
put them on a sheet of aluminum foil and put them on a cookie tray in your oven. set the oven to 450 degrees and bake it for a half hour plus. everything should melt out of it. you could even suspend it with a rolled up piece of foil under it. depending on the wires your thermistor may suffer but the heating element should be fine. tho, your thermistor probably will be okay too as it looks like it has silicone covering the wire.
Afaik the presidential powers to enact tariffs is limited. Congress is in charge of the budget and are the only ones allowed to set permanent tariffs. He is only getting away with what he is doing because he keeps making up phony emergency reasons why we need them, i.e. the bogus Canadian fentanyl story. The idiots in Congress have already given up so many of their duties to the executive branch it's doubtful they can recapture them. Until members of Congress decide to call him out on his bullshit he will keep getting away with it despite what any of them say publicly.... And we all know that his boot lickers will never do that.
I really like the orbiter 2.5. it's not as light as the nimble but it is still tiny. I like that it is open source and they really have thought to put a bunch of engineering in to the gear workings instead of just using clone bonditech gears. It cost, like, 48 USD to get from AliExpress and is definitely high quality.
Thh Hero Me mount seamed like a good choice as well. It was a huge pain in the a$$ to assemble tho, not that I am complaining. The way it mounts to the carriage means you can't just assemble and mount (at least with my old tronxy carriage plate). The included adapter design that comes in the file package didn't quite work correctly and I didn't realize that until I was all disassembled. There is a magnet mount version that would probably have been a better option. I'll probably print one to have as a spare if I ever need to disassemble the mount. Other then the mounting tho I really like the design and thought that went into it by mediaman.
I guess that would succeed in killing off a bunch of the elderly and infirmed, which be a huge savings to Medicare and social Security, so it's a win-win right?
I remember he also had a "stinky feet" series of experiments until he has on the verge of developing cellulitis or something....
Now I feel old.
