drnight | stick a glass sheet on top of the bed and send it | 23:09:49 |
nubss422 | lmao | 23:10:00 |
drnight | or even try the ceramic, might have a weird texture tho | 23:10:02 |
nubss422 | painters tape? | 23:10:12 |
drnight | my friend, this is engineering, it's not stupid if it works :D | 23:10:13 |
nubss422 | lol | 23:10:17 |
nubss422 | no it is not | 23:10:22 |
drnight | i've never in my life used tape or hairspray or glue, i'm not a good person to ask that | 23:10:26 |
nubss422 | I use a lot of gluestick on the ceramic and it always works well, but only PLA | 23:10:45 |
40oz | When you print something that takes 3+ days and covers entire build volume of your printer a little glue stick is cheap insurance | 23:11:46 |
nubss422 | well yet to do that haha | 23:12:23 |
drnight | i'm too autistic to accept greasing a pan to print ovens | 23:12:27 |
drnight | i'll accept occasionally cleaning a build surface, but if the little fucker needs a gluestick then i'm yeeting it and getting one that works | 23:12:51 |
40oz | When I’m impatient and rip shit off the bed while it’s hot and it gets unleveled and I’m too lazy to fix level I’ll maybe hit with glue stick and then level while first layer is printing | 23:14:54 |
40oz | Usually that’s what happens | 23:15:08 |
drnight | In reply to @1dre:matrix.org When I’m impatient and rip shit off the bed while it’s hot and it gets unleveled and I’m too lazy to fix level I’ll maybe hit with glue stick and then level while first layer is printing i level every 5-10 prints or when something's fucky, i do be careful about torqueing the bed so i can be lazy tho | 23:15:32 |
40oz | I just eyeball the first layer of each print and turn knobs until it looks right then walk away | 23:16:44 |
nubss422 | autobed level was the best thing I've ever used for printing | 23:16:59 |
nubss422 | well octoprint is there too | 23:17:11 |
nubss422 | but a bltouch on my ender 5 made printing... like actually fun haha | 23:17:28 |

jtaggert | There’s the level you need to aspire to. | 23:17:45 |
nubss422 | with octoprint, send and forget just made it easy | 23:17:48 |
nubss422 | wow | 23:17:55 |
nubss422 | what exactly am I looking at? | 23:18:18 |
nightalliance | a mountain | 23:18:28 |
nubss422 | clearly | 23:18:33 |
nubss422 | is that the offset from the nozzle of the bed? | 23:18:42 |
carbonfibergoth | It’s a boob | 23:18:43 |
jtaggert | Mesh leveling and printing additions to basketballs. | 23:18:52 |
