A solution to an abl problem

The whole 3 years i had this 3d printer i denied that abl was giving me false data. I just thought that my bed was just that crooked that abl just failed.

Then i had to print something that was almost the same size as my print bed. And obviously i had major issues with the first layer because abl was actually giving klipper false data.

On the first layer, the front of the bed was too close, the middle was almost perfect and the back part was too far.

Usually i just compensate by moving the z offset up or down but in this situation, i had mo idea where to move. I couldn't move down because the nozzle is already kind of scratching the front of the bed. I also couldn't move up because the back part of the plate was already barely sticking to the plate.

By the way i made sure to manually level the bed to be as flat as possible. I went through the 4 bed scews like 10 times just making micro adjustments to make sure the feeler guage has a consistent feel for each corner

THE SOLUTION:

The solution was a zero offset cr touch mount.

Turns out my x axis is kind of twisted. Its such a small amount to tell that it was but i just assumed that maybe it was twisted, in order to fix my abl problem.

The problem was that my x axis was actually twisted and since the cr touch was 30mm in front of the nozzle and the nozzle is the zero reference for the cr touch offset, every time it would do the abl, the twist would get multiplied at the cr touch part.

The zero offset cr touch mount solved it because instead of the twist getting multiplied at the cr touch part which is 30mm in front of the nozzle, the mount puts it aligned with the nozzle so the cr touch twists with the nozzle, giving klipper accurate abl results.

Cant use meta quest 3 while laying down anymore

Before, i used to be able to lay down, face to the side and have the screen be on its side which looks like a monitor screen turned 90 degrees. Its a very comfortable position to use the headset in.

Out of nowhere it just stopped being able to have the screen turned 90 degrees. Everytime i lay down turned to the side and i try to drag the screen or recenter it, it always wants to face upright relative to the floor which makes no sense because its not supposed to prioritize trying to be level with the floor, its supposed to prioritize being level with my eyes. So now in some weird head tilted positions, the screen is just completely unreadable. If you wanna use your vr while hanging upside down, you cant because it wants the screen to be upright with the floor and not your damn eyes.

On the other hand it might be because of safety. The headset might not be built to bare the weight of your head when you use it laying down and turned to the side. But seriously i want it back. I want to watch YouTube videos while turned to the side, upside down or whatever angle but most importantly, i want the vr headset to care more about my experience than its own. Because the headset might not be having a great experience when you use it laying down and turned to the side but i would have a great experience if i can do that.

I just needed a heat block and every replacement online is a whole set including the heating element and the temperature sensor and they were 3 times as expensive as before because ender 3 s1 pro is phased out. The prices went from ₱600 to somewhere around 2k. Then i came across a mini cnc machine online which was 9k and thought that i could make my own heat block but the cnc machine was too expensive, then i just started making one myself. Now im here stuck on like 10 different side quests building up to making my own cnc machine. I started with a cnc welder. Which will help me weld parts for the frame of the cnc machine, then now im making a cnc laser cutter/engraver, which will help me laser cut parts for the cnc machine. And after making the cnc machine, im just gonna straight up build my own 3d printer with a bigger build volume using the guts of my ender 3 s1 pro.

I went from wanting a heat block to making a cnc machine and a 3d printer.

Has any of you guys taken 1 small thing this far?
