Some people are required to wear a suit and not smell like a pig, after a bike ride of 25miles to work would do.





Please do this is great! Fills in gaps I found with other guides I’ve run into.


Thanks, i think going to buy the feeler gauge for better precision.


Thanks! Followed this closely, I then decided to flip the glass bed to the smooth bottom side, for giggles, manual bed leveled then bltouch leveled, then decided to print to see if anything changed and it surprisingly printed and stuck very well the cleaned GLASS surface without anything else (i still dont honestly known how it sticks this well to glass). Im still getting some stringing and blobbing still so will continue following your amazing instructions(probably the broken cooling fan related and maybe a estep issue). Just wanted to give you an update that i am indeed following your instructions. So thanks again. Will update as i go along.


Yes, many times. Going to try what others have suggested and will update. Thanks for your suggestion :)


I am finally reaching out as I am at my wits end and need experienced people to help me resolve my printing issue. I have a Voxelabs Aquila (Ender 3 v2) formerly running marlin with small but manageable annoyances like overhang and manual bed leveling and thus began my journey after a year of using Aquila to start modding/upgrading the thing. First thing i did was upgrade the fans and shroud, this improved prints slightly but was still not satisfied. Moved to Klipper and added BLTouch and this is where all my problems started. After hours of following guides and troubleshooting of setting them both up, i still get very little bed adhesion and layers are not smooth together (gaps) with the same 3d slicing software i have been using before the switch (yes changed it to Klipper firmware in slicer) As you can see in the picture this is *after* a manual bed level. Where do i go from here? Edit 2: fully cleaned nozzle, hotend, and bed without any other changes with same results. Edit 1: forgot to add my printer.cfg ``` [include mainsail.cfg] [stepper_x] step_pin: PC2 dir_pin: PB9 enable_pin: !PC3 microsteps: 16 rotation_distance: 40 endstop_pin: ^PA5 position_endstop: 3 position_max: 235 homing_speed: 50 [stepper_y] step_pin: PB8 dir_pin: PB7 enable_pin: !PC3 microsteps: 16 rotation_distance: 40 endstop_pin: ^PA6 position_endstop: -17 position_max: 228 position_min: -17 homing_speed: 50 [stepper_z] step_pin: PB6 dir_pin: !PB5 enable_pin: !PC3 microsteps: 16 rotation_distance: 8 endstop_pin: probe:z_virtual_endstop #position_endstop: 0.0 position_max: 250 position_min: -6 [extruder] max_extrude_only_distance: 100.0 step_pin: PB4 dir_pin: PB3 enable_pin: !PC3 microsteps: 16 rotation_distance: 34.406 nozzle_diameter: 0.400 filament_diameter: 1.750 heater_pin: PA1 sensor_type: EPCOS 100K B57560G104F sensor_pin: PC5 #control: pid # tuned for stock hardware with 200 degree Celsius target #pid_Kp: 21.527 #pid_Ki: 1.063 #pid_Kd: 108.982 min_temp: 0 max_temp: 250 [bltouch] # Can't move this configuration to include because of z-offset adjustment sensor_pin: ^PB1 control_pin: PB0 x_offset: -28 y_offset: -15 #z_offset = 0 samples: 2 speed: 2 #pin_move_time: 0.500 #probe_with_touch_mode: False #pin_up_reports_not_triggered: True #pin_up_touch_mode_reports_triggered: True #stow_on_each_sample: False [safe_z_home] home_xy_position: 125,125 #this should be the center of your bed speed: 50 z_hop: 10 z_hop_speed: 5 [bed_mesh] speed: 80 horizontal_move_z: 5 mesh_min: 3, 33 #!!min and max co-ords are based on the probes location not the nozzle!! mesh_max: 207, 213 #needs to be calibrated for your individual printer probe_count: 5,5 #this is the number of probing points on X then Y axis mesh_pps: 2,2 fade_start: 1 fade_end: 10 fade_target: 0 [bed_screws] screw1: 25, 25 screw2: 195, 25 screw3: 195, 195 screw4: 25, 195 [heater_bed] heater_pin: PA2 sensor_type: EPCOS 100K B57560G104F sensor_pin: PC4 #control: pid # tuned for stock hardware with 50 degree Celsius target #pid_Kp: 54.027 #pid_Ki: 0.770 #pid_Kd: 948.182 min_temp: 0 max_temp: 130 [fan] pin: PA0 [mcu] serial: /dev/serial/by-id/usb-1a86_USB_Serial-if00-port0 restart_method: command [printer] kinematics: cartesian max_velocity: 300 max_accel: 3000 max_z_velocity: 5 max_z_accel: 100 #*# <---------------------- SAVE_CONFIG ----------------------> #*# DO NOT EDIT THIS BLOCK OR BELOW.

Corporations will always go toward the money pot if they have shareholders to please.



Yeah was going to say why does this sound familiar… 100% lawsuit incoming.





Plot twist: she already has.


Don’t tell Nestle this, they would store all the ocean water and resell it at a premium.
