Doing my first test print using the built-in dragon.
My printhead 4 keeps pulling out, then going back in. It's taking 2-3 attempts every time it swaps. The other 3 heads appear to be doing fine.
Any quick troubleshooting before I message Snapmaker?
Just moving from a Ender 3 bedslinger clone to a Snapmaker U1.
I'm getting a set of 0.2mm hot ends to try some smaller detailed prints.
I was going to order the 0.6mm hot ends for faster large printing, but my friend said that newer Core XY printers they weren't worth it over the 0.4mm due to hitting the volumetric melt limit of the heater before you hit the mechanical motion limits.
Are the larger hot ends worth it for printing normal PLA/PETG, or just for specialty materials where you're worried about clogging?
I'd like to go kayak camping, but I don't have someone to shuttle. The river where I want to go is pretty large w/ islands available for camping and has a current flow rate of ~2-3mph.
I've got a roto molded 14' pelican sit-in kayak with a drop skeg. I know it's not the most efficient boat.
Is it reasonable to think I could paddle this upstream 2-3 miles to an island to camp?
I love hanging out in a hammock in the yard in the evenings. I've always struggled getting out of it though because of how low my stand hangs. The weather has gotten nicer so I've been back out and I noticed that I can now just turn, plant my feet, and stand!
I also was buying a new camp chair and wanted one of the really small ones for easy carrying. I've avoided them in the past due to my weight as I've broken a few larger, more heavy duty ones in the past. Found one that had plenty of headroom in the weight rating now, bought it, and I feel comfortable sitting in it! I don't feel like I'm pushing the rating and expecting it to collapse at any moment.
