I never joke about rockets...

(And don't call me Shirly...)

[Sorry. Shameless Air plane/Flying High quote opportunity. I couldn't avoid it. ]

But seriously though, it actually does fly straight...

And there are some seriously good paint jobs I've seen that people have done both steam punk or Wile.E.Coyote style that were just mind blowing.

Check your z offset, first layer squish and extrusion multiplier, then pressure advance.

That looks like too much filament or too close to the bed. Some of the edge artifacts could be pressure advance as well.

I spent a year chasing those problems out of a printer, and had hundreds of FL tests that looked just like that.

If you're interested, Ellis 3D tuning guide is amazing. (I use a different pressure advance calibration method, but the rest has been bang on for me...)

It let's you run Google Photos without network permissions and with storage scopes limiting it to certain folders.

Before you buy it, I always suggest you rent or borrow one and make sure it works for you.

I was going to choose a Canon based on specs and reviews. I rented one and hated it. All the functions were on the back and I found it quite hard to get in the flow, spending all my time "chimping" the menus.

I borrowed a friends Nikon, and found all the buttons I wanted were where my fingers were, and I just naturally found it gelled. I found I spent more time taking the pictures I wanted, and less time messing around.

My partner on the other hand hates my Nikon, and has a Canon that she loves...

I dipped my toe in the s76 pool with a fully specced lemp10.

It was by far the best Linux experience I've had on a laptop to date, but I still ended up back on an m2 mbp...

2 killer issues were:

  1. finding realistic personal replacements for fusion360 and Affinity Designer. (freecad and inkscape just aren't for me); and
  2. The hardware just worked together better on the Mac (BT, audio, screen, WiFi, networking etc..).

I'm planning on taking my m2 mbp to asahi once the fingerprint scanner is working and dual booting for cad and vector graphics apps if I can't get crossover versions working.

Net:Net I want to like s76, but the LEMP ended up basically the same price as the MBP and the Mac hardware was vastly superior (screen, audio, power management, etc)

I'll try Linux again on my next laptop purchase again...

I spent a year trying to get my Prusa factory assembled mk4s to print properly. Prusa support even eventually sent me a full replacement printer that had the EXACT same problem out of the box.

I returned it, bought an LDO Voron kit for a 2.4 350mm and haven't looked back.

The kit had pre made harnesses, which was 100% the right move for me.

(Incidentally, the drawers for my desk I was trying to print on the Prusa originally are now printed and finished on the Voron, and working great...)

I tried the ellis3d model and while I hadn't got all my start macros together, first time I ran it I crashed the nozzle into the bed and gouged it.

Later attempts with a 0.6mm nozzle also gave me inconsistent and hard to read outcomes.

Instead, I use this two box method on opposite corners of the front of the bed:

Since then, coupled with the rest of the ellis3D tuning guide, my printer has been DIALLED....

If you are looking for displacement activities that have large amounts of slow steady methodical development of learning and new skills, with a thrilling and short adrenalised conclusion, I can highly recommend low powered model rocketry.

I've progressively levelled up my design, construction and painting skills, and the 10-90second flight at the end is quite a rush when you find out if your all your work passes the ultimate test from the laws of space and time, or if you're about to instead learn something to take into the next build...

Plus, there's usually plenty of rocketry clubs scattered around with amazing people to help on the journey...

I often recommend mailinabox for the same thing...

On android: have you tried Thunderbird with davx5 as the connector?

I think the "dull" metre is an external one...

I'm into all manner of exciting things that people think are completely dull if I talk about it...

Welcome to the party.... (please turn the music down as you come past the stereo and can you bring less spicy dip next time please?...)

I don't upload my photos to the cloud, and don't use the search function. It's just a photo library app on the phone. It seems to do a better job of post processing the pics from my Pixel, which is why in use it.
