Being called a scammer

Long story short. I have this old guy want to buy a helmet from me and he can’t figure out how to get the Facebook Marketplace shipping works. So I sent him a PayPal link that’s generated in the app. Ended up with him calling me a scammer and said he is gonna report me.
What should I do in this situation?

How can I improve the text

Hi! I’m relatively new to print and I just designed something small in fusion 360 to print out and I found it very hard to get the text/character clear. I’m printing with with 0.4 nozzle head, 0.12 layer height. I’ve change wall type to Arachne and out wall speed 50 mm/s. What else can I do to improve the clarity of this?

Does this work on my MK4S?

Just purchased an MK4S with enclosure and I came across this listing. Seller is selling this because they have upgraded. I wonder if this will fit MK4S as the seller states it’s only for MK3S

Also is there anyway I can fit it in the enclosure? Thanks in advance!

First time printing ASA what did I do wrong?

Trying to print in my new Prusa MK4S with enclosure. Tried preheating before printing but still comes out like this. Nozzle 260 and bed temp 100. Seems like mostly just the edges are real rough. Any advice on this noob of printing?

Thanks in advance!

Cannot load the filament

Just got my MK4S today (used). Trying to load filament and the screen stuck at 0% while the filament keep purging.
I tried to unload. After the process, I pulled back the filament and the printer will suddenly detect that the filament is loading and prompt the whole new loading process again.

Any help please thanks in advance

Is it really worth it?

I’ve been searching for a second printer. I came across this Prusa MK4S with a full enclosure and 50 days of accumulated print time. I negotiated the price down to $550. I’ve been using Bambu Lab for the longest time, so I’m wondering if it’s worth the price to try a different ecosystem. Should I stick with Bambu Lab, considering its ease of use and AMS?

Thanks in advance for any advice!

0.6 nozzle question

Very new to 3d printing here, try to use Bambu 0.6 harden nozzle to have faster print speed but the first layer seems pretty rough. Any suggestions? Printing on X1C I’m using 0.3 layer height with 0.6 initial layer height, 2 walls.
Thanks in advance!!

How can I change the diameter of the outer ring while everything else stay the same

Very new to 3D printing and modeling— just started two days ago. I came across a file that's slightly off from what I need: it's a ring/holder shape, and I want to increase the outer diameter without changing anything else (the inner hole needs to stay the same size). Scaling the whole thing in Bambu Studio enlarges the inner hole too, which I don't want.

I looked into Fusion 360 as a workaround — tried converting the mesh to a solid and using Offset Face to push just the outer wall out, but I keep hitting an error saying the body can't be repaired after the face offset. I've also tried Remesh and Press Pull with no luck.

Is there an easier way or a more beginner-friendly tool to do this? Just need to grow the outer diameter by about 2mm while keeping the inner diameter untouched. Any advice appreciated!

Is this bike worth the money?

Came across this bike. Just checked it out in person. The owner is holding for me for a decision at $4500. Probably can negotiate down a bit more because of due tags.

This 821 has been sitting for two years at 13k miles. 8k miles service completed at dealership. Owes tags about $600.
Other than rat-chewed up fuel line (pop out at left side of the tank so most likely it’s a fuel line?), bent lever and bent brake pedals there is not other damage. All fluids need to be flushed and replaced, tires need to be replaced. Most likely belts need to be replaced as well.

I have worked on some bikes at home before but nothing too intense or pro level. I really want to know if it’s worth the time and effort to get it running at this price. Thinking about restoring it to keep it or to sell it after

Appreciate all the advice in advance!!!!

Is this worth it?

I’m looking for a reliable bike for commuting and longer trips/work. I’m wondering if it’s worth spending $2000 on this bike (I can negotiate it down), or should I allocate a bit more budget to get one with less mileage ($3500 with 20k miles)? I don’t have a budget issue, but I’m a bit hesitant to spend more on a touring bike that I’m gonna put a lot of mileage on. Also I’m 5’7 and I wonder if this is going to be too tall for me.

I appreciate all the suggestions in advance!

Maybe the deal of the month?

I used to own a red 19 CB, but I sold it because I was moving. Today I stumbled upon this listing and immediately reached out to the seller. It was actually a 350 miles 2024 model with E Clutch, but it also comes with a 2023 Ninja 400. The only issue with the Ninja 400 is a bent brake pedal and scratched fairings. Both clean title.

Has anyone else got lucky as well with a CB650R?

Thoughts on this deal?

Came across this bike on FB marketplace in CA. This is worth the price? And how is the 03 750 compare to other years?
Appreciate all the comments and help!

What are these racks for?

Recently joined the club. Spent about 6k on this baby. The last owner did some mods but I’m not sure what are these rack for? I know it’s for saddlebags but I have no experience about this mounting system.

Appreciated.

I bought mine a while ago and the last owner installed these crash bars that are damaged. I want to take them off and get new set. Any suggestions on how to take them off? Much appreciated.
