Does anyone have a lifeguard station like the ones on the beach in Santa Monica as a STL file

Hello! I’m sorry if this isn’t allowed, I don’t have a printer and I’m looking for something to be made with a specific filament. It’s a little velociraptor model that I got for my husband at a game shop, he lost it somewhere, although it was chewed by a naughty dog and a cat. I would love to be able to present him with a brand new one for his birthday coming up in march. I will pay for filament, shipping, and the model. The one i found online is free and I can send the link over. Thank you in advance💕

I have a Tenlog TL-D3 Pro IDEX dual carriage printer that i just installed a BTT Octopus Pro 1.1 board on with a RPI 4b with Klipper on it.

I have everything homing right and i can print using the E0 Extruder with single extruder printing fine. but when i try and use the E1 to print with dual extruders its not working right.

I have a test print on the SD card from Tenlog that came with the printer and it is suppose to print a box with the inside of the box a second color from the second extruder (E1) but when the second extruder starts to print it is not over top of the first part that extruder (E0) printed like it should be.. it is off by about an inch or so to the left.

I think i have to set the X offset of the second extruder (E1) somehow but i cant for the life of me figure out how to do this.. if i change the X_offset to something else with a macro it only seems to change the offset of the main extruder and then gives me an out of range error when it wants to switch to the other extruder (E1) to print in the second color.

Any help would be great. I have been working on this for hours and cant get it right. its pissing me off :)

Excited to try out a Diamond nozzle

Picked up this Diamond PCB nozzle for the panda Revo hotend, excited to try it out on my P1S

Tbh, I haven’t noticed much if any flowrate increase with the panda revo and probably less flow than I was getting with a CHT hardened steel nozzle in a bambu clone hotend I got on AliExpress.

Had a lot off issues with clogging related to either the CHT nozzles or the clone hotend construction near the heatbreak and haven’t had that issue yet with the Revo standard 0.4mm nozzle.

With CHT nozzles, I was getting flowrate of about 27 and maybe 25 with the standard Revo nozzle with standard PETG. So far with the diamond nozzle I seem to only get like 17-19 before noticing artifacts in the orca slicer preset for max flowrate.

I’ve heard that Diamond nozzles like the diamondback ones have very good head conductivity and so leads to fewer clogs due to heat creep. This one is made by Durozzle. Anyone have experience with these?

Also wondering what I need to set my temp to. From what I read, 10-20C below hardened steel and 5-10 below brass? Thanks

Is the relative humidity reader accurate on this thing I’m 2 hrs into a 6hr dry only went down a %

I know that I'm probably the millionth person to ask about this, but there're a LOT of non-answers online. I know ABS should be enclosed, that styrene is toxic, and that it's just not recommended on the A1.

That said, I'm in the market for a new printer - I personally favor ABS for acetone smoothing purposes, and the A1 looks to be basically the best in the market within my price range. I already own an aftermarket enclosure from my last printer, so that's not my concern. The only question I have is if ABS prints alright on an enclosed A1. Does anyone have experience with printing ABS on an enclosed A1 and can offer some info on how their experience doing so has been?

Thanks in advance!

When buying STLs do you prefer a whole model, separated pieces, a pre supported file, or all of the above or something else?

I have Shapr3D, fusion and nomad, how can I create rainbow lines like this?

I'm thinking of getting a resin 3d printer and have questions about the ambient environment needed. I want to use my garage, it's well ventilated but not climate controlled. What are the temps and humidity levels that resin printers work in? I in Southeast US, so it gets hot and humid in summer and fairly chilly in winter.

I have just purchased a replacement motor for my dishwasher because the impeller that drains the water away had been damaged and lost a couple of fins. The old impeller is removable and I was thinking could I print a replacement.

I mean, its a basic shape and I can easily draw it,

BUT! But but.....

When it spins, would that with the friction on the water be too much for PETG? The existing impeller is a soft rubbery material, so perhaps TPU, but then I am not sure the friction fit would work so it would need to be TPU and a PETG collar.

So, I am looking for some expert opinions around the practicalities of this possible solution. As the more I have though about it, sure I could make it and it would fit and it would move water, but I doubt it would last longer than a few washes, if that due to forces involved. But, don't know enough to actually know if I am full of it or not!

Thoughts?

Note, I am not considering ABS as I don't have an enclosure and not going there after a few tries a while back

Motor is pretty much one of these : https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/283413990523?srsltid=AfmBOoo7Szo4CMelG2qBzJhWYdkiXYSgXVwCr3wn7zVp0Curw7moch3U

The impeller in question is the white bit at the bottom, it drains the water out of the dishwasher (Fisher and Paykel dishdrawer)

So I got this Saturn 4 ultra and I have the resin and I did a test print, but it didn’t work. All I got was a small little disc which was supposed to be that rook chess piece and so I don’t know how to print it properly. Also, I emptied the extra resin back into the filament container with the funnel, but do I clean the actual bed or do I clean the actual screen as well? I’m so lost any help would be amazing.

Trying to print scale mail on my ender 5s1 and it keeps failing how do I fix it

Looking to source the parts for this, but have an old Creality Cr-10 mini. Was wondering if anyone has salvaged parts for one of these builds. Seems possible for the motors, and maybe even the board?

With the awesome feedback from you all, here's my updated design that automatically resets. Enjoy!
