I'm now running it at 50mm/s, pre heating the temporary enclosure (made with 1x2's and plastic sheathing), hairspray on the plate after washing it with dawn. We'll see how that goes. I'll stop tomorrow after work and get some acetone to try the homebrew glue. With the Kobra max, the sd card...

Thanks for all of the great ideas and suggestions. I lowered the speed to 50mm/s, moved it to a different room that is typically warmer that the rest of the house, used some hair spray for the next print. It made it farther than any of the other prints have done. Used the PLA that the...

No enclosure, but no breeze (ie ceiling fan). Will try the 40mm/s speed and see what happens. I don't know. It happens after I quit watching it. It is definitely not stuck to the bed when I find it with the spaghetti all over it. I've cleaned it several times with alcohol, making sure it's...

According to cura, it's 80mm/s, abs. It seems the clips hold onto the print surface is held pretty tight to the hot bed. I'll add some painter's tape after lunch and try it again. We'll see what happens. Thanks.

Here is the owl print. That is until the head started dragging it around.

The only one that I have that is their stock one is the owl. This happens with the ones that I have downloaded which I haven't changed the settings on. I'm going to reprint the owl and see what happpens.

Hope this is the right place for this question. Picked up a Anycubic Max printer about 3 weeks ago. Printed the owl out pretty well. Nothing stood out as being an issue. Used an object that I designed in Solidworks, saved as an stl file, imported into the prusa and cura slicer programs and...

May have already been adressed, but anyone who says linear bearings will never be completely quiet or smooth , has no idea what they are talking about. Everytime the bearing ratchets, it will show up in your print.

A little late to the party. We use a lot of the 8020 channels for safety screens for our factory equipment. We place the 10 gauge screen in the slots in the center of the channels. That way we don't have any need for panel clips the way you did. I've not heard of putting the computer inside...

There are several unknowns at play here. 1. What kind of base is really there? 2. How thick is it? 3. How thick is the tar/blacktop/asphalt **** that is on top of everything? Now for the why's. Since putting in the new garage behind the old one, and raising the roof on it to match the new...

Thanks Ole Slewfoot, my house and my neighbor's house were built by two brothers at the same time. His is still gravel, mine has what is possibly a thin layer of asphalt over the top of the gravel. The asphalt is what I want to remove and leave the layer of rock for the concrete to go over.

Ok, thanks.

Planning right now is to use a heavy duty dump trailer to haul the remains out to a friend's farm for use out there. Its about 6 miles one way. So it doesn't have to lift real high, I just don't want to be digging the driveway out all week.

Driveway is about 80 feet long by 10 feet wide. Fair amount of drive time. Put in several above ground pools and some landscaping for a contractor when I was laid off of my normal job.

Come springtime, or at least after the snow melts, it'll be time to remove the crappy driveway and replace it with a concrete one. It is mostly gravel underneath it but has a thin layer of some kind of tar based **** on it. The previous owners would use asphalt tape to seal up any of the...
