For this see "Link Here", but same PLA+, so clearly it's probly either setting in slicer or a diff in the printers...

Scrapy device provided, odd having to print one, but prints come off really easy.

Mod to hold glass top to side of printer. Pretty snug, so it don't giggle at all.

Quote from: Chris Savage on Jul 23, 2026, 08:44 AMIf I had to make a language suggestion, it would be C/C++/C#. In the 90s I thought C was a dying language, so I didn't bother. In the 2000s, if you didn't know C, you were pretty limited on many platforms. Of course, there are other popular languages like Python, but C is more universal.

I learned some C# but I need more practices and I'm planning on learning the other three you mentioned.

I need to break into my programming, I enjoyed it.

Welcome, I guess with SOME stuff, where there's no clearance issues, I think this is no issue, but my sword has seams like pretty tight clearances, it just won't work...

Good tip, Joe. With different printers myself, I need to remember this. Thanks.

I intend to bring my Monoprice. I did get the new bed, and the gaffer's tape. Unfortunately, the new bed is not magnetic, and there is no steel plate for it - it is just the same type plate that has been destroyed by previous prints.  I want to try the gaffer's tape, and see if that works.

Unfortunately, in spite of nine hours of sleep last night, I have been unable to concentrate on this work. Hopefully tomorrow will be better.

Well, I got one...

For prints requiring multiple parts, it's best to use the same machine for all the parts, unless the parts are for something like a game or instances where part size isn't absolutely critical.... I printed most of the parts for my Zelda Master Sword on the Centauri Carbon, However I printed the handgrip wrap on the Neptune 2D using White PLA+.  Now, came out just fine, no issues whatsoever, except the grip wrap was just slightly too small, and when I got the wrap partially on the handle, the print got stuck, and I was forced to VERY carefully break it off.... Printed on the Centauri Carbon, using the filament sample that came with it, failed due to layers not sticking well, anyhow, tried the part, and it fit very well.

Quote from: MicroNut on Jul 29, 2026, 12:38 PMI was talking to my friend Jim and he mentioned California bill AB 2047 which puts massive restrictions on using, buying and selling 3D printers. Here is the link to a very interesting video about it https://forum.sovol3d.com/t/us-states-passing-bills-restricting-3d-printing/9640

@Chris Savage - New York is looking at a similar bill.
@granz - the bill states you can be fined for selling or giving away non-compliant 3D printers!

At the end of the video the host said this could be the stepping stone to control other items such as computers.

Very scary! I may just not want to get into 3D printing if Big brother controls it.

Ridiculess.... all due to 3d printing fire arms.... taking things too far with some of this crap!

Sadly, funds will NOT allow Angela n me to attend.... If I could have, I'd have brought my Centauri Carbon, Mars 4 Ultra and Mercury Plus processing station.

My actual print.

Minimal Birdhouse – No AMS, No Glue



I printed this too late for this year, but I will put it out next year to see if we get any tenants.
