Whatโ€™s your favorite color? in c/asklemmy@lemmy.ml
[โ€“] 2 points 54 minutes ago

I'll give you my three favorites:

  • Cosmic latte (#FFF8E7 or 42ยฐ, 9%, 100%)
  • Eigengrau (#16161D or 240ยฐ, 24.1, 11.4)
  • OLO (#00FFCC or 168ยฐ, 100, 100)

Now, all of these given values are approximations of colors that are either difficult or impossible to truly measure or portray on screen, but... They also happen to look SWEEEET together in a palette!

    Should I get a b*mbulab printer? + More newbie questions in c/3dprinting@lemmy.world
    [โ€“] 3 points 12 hours ago

    The bigger the print volume, usually the more finicky fine-tuning is. It's just because there's a lot more weight/belt path/etc for things to go wonky. But my makerspace's 350mmยณ machines have definitely come in clutch on occasion, even if the vast majority of our patrons' requests are smaller.

    For filaments, they're MOSTLY all compatible everywhere, with just a couple exceptions:

    • The defacto standard diameter is 1.75mm, but 2.85mm is still being made (mostly because of Ultimaker), so make sure you get the right size for your machine.
    • If the material needs to be printed at higher than ~250C, you'll need an all-metal hotend. The cheaper kind of hotend uses PTFE inside and that'll start offgassing toxins above 250C.
    • Some 3d printer brands have started putting RFID chips in their own line of filament, and making it difficult-to-impossible for the machine to accept anything but those. Bambulabs wants to do this SO BAD lol.
    • If the filament itself offgases toxins, you'll want an enclosed printer with some kind of filtration.

    Also, I would say that the reputation Bambulabs has for being easy/plug-and-play is overblown. Not that other printers are any more plug-and-play, just that Bambulabs are no better. And when things inevitably DO go wrong with one, they're harder and more expensive to fix. You wouldn't believe how many of our 3d printing patrons sheepishly admit "actually I have a printer at home but it's broken right now" or "I couldn't get it to do this print". One guess which printer they usually have.

    What extruder to choose for a replacement for a broken Afterburner on a Voron 2.4? in c/3dprinting@lemmy.world

    What extruder to choose for a replacement for a broken Afterburner on a Voron 2.4? in c/3dprinting@lemmy.world
    [โ€“] 2 points 1 day ago (2 children)

    Whoaa, I didn't know there was a version 2 of the A4T!! Does this one not support the G2WW extruder? The first version does, and I've been greatly enjoying that. If it does, that's what I'd go with.

    Hunting for a Cooking Oil Replacement in Pennsylvaniaโ€™s Forests - Inside Climate News in c/food@beehaw.org
    [โ€“] 3 points 1 day ago

    Hickory nuts sound like a great choice, but we shouldn't forget about acorn oil either! The tannins in acorns are only water soluble, not fat soluble, so the pressed oil is not bitter at all even with no leaching. I've heard the red oak species produce the best tasting oils. Making your own cooking oils at home with a Piteba press (or a cheap knockoff) really shows you how much we take that stuff for granted... I use much less of it now, knowing how much raw material goes into making just a tiny bit

    Best Android Lemmy client for someone coming from Reddit? in c/asklemmy@lemmy.ml
    [โ€“] 1 point 1 day ago

    It's been too long since I used any reddit app to really compare, I just don't remember them well enough. However, I did use them regularly on Android, so maybe they influenced my preferences? Personally, I really like Blorp. It just feels WAYYYY smoother and less cluttered than all the other ones.

    Royalty Free-For-All has online weeklies now! (www.sleet.gg)
     

    Region locked to U.S. (unfortunately), and requires LAN. I'm planning on joining this one! Platform fighters have never been my jam, but if there's an indie fighter with players that I can actually play against, I'll be there lol.

    Also, they're working on adding their first new character! It seems extremely likely to be Wet Floor Sign guy.

    Textiles from around the small web Ply-Split Kumihimo Meta/Community Nalbinding (piefed.social)
     

    I added a ton of RSS feeds to our Fediverser listing a long time ago, mostly from niche textile sites, but I always feel weird posting them here since it's not really original content. Also, is Fediverser even still a thing? It still works, but any time I try to do/add anything new, it throws an error.

    Anyway, if you do RSS, that's definitely the way to keep up with the more obscure textiles. Even the ones that don't mention having an RSS feed are usually hosted on sites that do by default, i.e. WordPress, Blogger, etc.

    For example, check out this cute nalbinded viscacha from 200 BCE to 600 CE Peru:
    Ancient nalbinded plushie of a cute little mammal, in light and dark browns.

    Or maybe consider a beginner ply-split braiding class coming up this August: Someone a few rows into a ply-split braided keychain in yellow.

    Or peep this beautiful kumihimo flat braid made on a takadai, just in time for June: A folded up long thin band of fabric in a bold stripey rainbow pattern.

    There's only one mod on !shavian@lemmy.world right now, and they haven't been around in a little bit. Hopefully this is the right way to do this, I just wanted to get added as an additional mod besides @2910000@lemmy.world since I'm there a lot anyway. Figured maybe I could help.

    Cosmo eBrailler support? (piefed.social)
     

    Does anyone have any idea how to get a Cosmo working on something other than Duxbury DBT? Like Braille Blaster, maybe? My makerspace can't afford Duxbury, so this thing is only half as useful as it's supposed to be... Neither the Cosmo manufacturer nor the Braille Blaster maintainers could figure it out.

    Switching out most of the toolhead stack on a Voron 2.4, anybody know if these options work together? (piefed.social)
     

    Currently it has:

    We want to switch to:

    We're sick of the Tap but we're trying to re-use as much hardware as possible to keep costs down. It's just always a little unclear where problems will pop up... I've read that Cartographer should work with the EBB 36 board. The A4T configurator has options for EBB 36 and Revo Voron, so those all seem compatible. The XOL carriage has an option for attaching the cartographer, so that seems alright too. Does everything else seem compatible here?

    Secondarily, it's also a little unclear which .stl files from which repos we should actually print. The A4T has that configurator which helps a lot, but the WWG2 and the XOL carriage don't, afaik.
