I’m laughing my ass off but also need some help.

We were printing the bottom part of some pokeballs and came back to this. The plate was clean beside the start blob/strip.

I’m have a Bambu A1.
Using the Bambu handy app.
Using basic PLA.
Not sure on temps and speed used atm but will know shortly if needed.

Any quick help? I’d like to fix this properly but also cheaply. I’m willing to clean instead of buying new parts if possible.

This is for my son’s birthday party in 5 days and I’d like to get it back up and running ASAP.

My papaw gave me this old brush axe yesterday and I’m looking for some advice on restoring/preserving it properly.

He was a mechanic his whole life, but spent a lot of time outdoors since he was a kid. I work in surveying, and I’d really like to keep this functional and continue using it for lighter work from time to time instead of letting it sit.

From what he told me:

- Handle was replaced around 30 years ago
- Original blade
- Not sure if the hardware/bracket is original or not

I want to preserve as much originality and character as possible while still cleaning it up and maintaining it correctly.

I’m very comfortable with tools and field work, just not experienced with restoring older tools like this yet.
