Megaquarium, Big Pharma, Bus Simulator 21.

All of them are solid.

Wait, sorry. What's supposed to touch the bed? The hot end or the ABL sensor?

Yeah, this was my assumption (the probe should hit before) - I just wasn’t sure if they were supposed to offset just enough with the adjustable probe to end up being in-line with the nozzle. The instructions are… not great.

Also - sorry, when you say leveling.. do you mean that I should be leveling the bed against the ABL sensor or the hot end?

 

I just installed the CR Touch kit on my Ender 3 Pro. Everything is wired up, but I can't seem to get the Z-Axis offset correct. My process is:

  1. Auto-Home
  2. Step the Z-Axis down until there's slight resistance on a sheet of paper between the nozzle and bed
  3. Take that value (Roughly -1.3) and put it into the Z-Axis Offset value
  4. Level bed

All of this works, but when the bed is leveling, the CR Touch needle is hitting the bed way earlier than the nozzle by maybe a few mm. When I go to print, there doesn't seem to be adhesion in some places on the glass bed.

What am I doing wrong? :(

Oh my god, same issue here. I'm just ready to use Lemmy (or KBin, or anything) and not constantly read how much better it is than Reddit and how Reddit is going down a death spiral. Let's just move on and provide our own content.

We can discuss where the money comes from, but the idea isn't pie-in-the-sky wild. I don't disagree with you.

It makes sense if you think about it (assuming my thoughts are correct, I'm in the US). If you're employed, you are contributing through your taxes. Just because you're unemployed, it doesn't mean your contributions pause. Now, should they? That's a good question, but the current implementation makes sense. I imagine it does incentivize people to look for employment.

Man, Omnifocus (and most of the Omni suite) seems so good, but it's so expensive. I absolutely am not opposed to paying for services, but a $10/mo subscription service or a $50+ app seems crazy for a task tracker.

Sorry, yeah I realized my post was super light on info - the printer is in the basement and far away :)

Where I'm at:

  • Multiple USB A <-> Micro-USB cables were tried
  • RPi4 turns on, I can access Octoprint just fine. Octoprint says it could not recognize any connected printer
  • E3Pro turns on just fine, is completely stock and has not been modified in any way.
 

I'm struggling with getting my Ender 3 Pro connected to my Raspberry Pi 4 via USB. The connection just doesn't seem to be established. From what I've read, it could be any number of things.. but I was hoping someone here had some input.

Thanks!

Thank you! I didn’t understand if it was, like.. health was taken so !health was available.

[–] PKRockin@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago (2 children)

How come it’s !health and not just health? That seems confusing.
