Garage e3v2 but im broke and dumb

[final topaz]

Like 0.5-1

[rough sapphire]

thats unacceptable

there is no acceptable rate of mistakes for medicine

[final topaz]

I dont study

[rough sapphire]

you will get sued out the ass if you fail to diagnose a cauda equina sindrome

[final topaz]

I just sit watch and apply whatever I cared to pay attention to

[rough sapphire]

that highschool is making you bored then

not a good school

[final topaz]

Only good school within 30 minutes of me though

[rough sapphire]

your potential as a human you may come to find in life is muc much greater than you see now

[final topaz]

I went to the other one and it really sucked

[rough sapphire]

you can be pro-active and tell them what you need and theyll accomodate you

you can start your own club

you can start a 3d printing club and the school wil lbuy you printers n shit

they want people like that actively participating and putting them on the map

you should never EVER be bored in life

[final topaz]

They usually let the robotics folk help with that thats how they got there hands on a P2S combo

My school actually uses 3d printed bathroom passes with the virtual ones

[rough sapphire]

haha sick

[final topaz]

All of the people who controlled everything left is what my homie told so im kinda tempted to join so I can play with it

[rough sapphire]

people who have control dont really have control

once you're the driving force you call the shots

my highschool had a cnc lathe that wasnt used in 2 decades, i wanted to use it so i slammed my fist against the tables until it was mine

life is like that later as well

[final topaz]

Idc about having control i just wanna do stuff

[rough sapphire]

he who makes the most noise gets whats he wants

you need control to do stuff

you have to control the parameters to open those doors

if theres a 3d printing club you have to be president

[final topaz]

Im talking about controlling people idc about it

[rough sapphire]

otherwise some dip ship is going to do what he wants with it

like buy the printers he wants

you can influence people

be vocal about things

tell them its your way or the highschool

have a vision

have guts

[final topaz]

Nahhh imagine if someone influenced the school to buy 10 enders 😭

[rough sapphire]

it can be done

i have seen highschools with cnc mill and lathes

and not the pussy kind

real production machines

[final topaz]

My highschool has them though idk the difference between those two kinds

[rough sapphire]

but you have to be the driving force

u dont understand, u cant ask you have to be the one proposing solutions not asking for solutions

[final topaz]

They have an autocad and cad course

[rough sapphire]

yea its like the absolute minimum

cuz they cant call themselves a tech highschool

having cnc machines is much more

an instructor has to really teach people

otherwise they crash these expensive machines

or worse, someone loses a hand

[final topaz]

They dont call themself that actually

[rough sapphire]

autocad no one can die with it

lmao

[final topaz]

Theyre just a normal small highschool with a ton of funding

[rough sapphire]

you gotta call the shots

theyre waiting to giive you their money

[final topaz]

Not my place though

[rough sapphire]

yes it is

[final topaz]

I dont find it fun to lead things

[rough sapphire]

people your age learn to be proactive

thats why there are clubs

lead or be lead

kill or be kill law of the jungle thats life

someone else is gonna use that money if you dont use it

for other hobbies

[final topaz]

Being lead is fine aslong as the person leading isnt stupid

[rough sapphire]

nah

there are plenty of very competent and evil people

[final topaz]

Thats true aswell

[rough sapphire]

look at the current political situation

putin

i wont say about america

good people have a civic duty to be at the helms of power

its immoral not to participate in civic duty

you better do some cool shit with that funding money

otherwise its gonna go to waste

[final topaz]

Idc about politics either i just like to keep to myself and do my own thing mostly so aslong as that isnt halted im find

[rough sapphire]

this is the thing you are there in highschool to learn about

being proactive, planning

social skills

the math and physics .. most people will never use it

[final topaz]

Math and physics are the fun part though

[rough sapphire]

i can ask grok or chatgpt to my integral for me

you know whats more fun - change

money

good times

a meaningful life

lasting relationships

teamwork

human qualities in other words

robots will do the technical stuff mostly

[final topaz]

Thats true though I still like learning about it honestly

[rough sapphire]

yea

but its secondary to human qualities

in uni there are a lot of disturbed lonely people

dont fall in that trap

[final topaz]

Now thats one thing I wont do

[rough sapphire]

i see you in the 3d printing channel all day , clealry you see my point?

you're there to be social

being social is what makes us humans

and not robots

machines who can be manipulated and enslaved

freedom is not free, the price is civic participation

[final topaz]

Yes but im sure you wont see me once I go onto my next goal or whatever plan or idea im pursuing or playing with friends

Ill still pop into this discord every now and then though the people are cool

[rough sapphire]

doesnt matter

each with his own life

[final topaz]

Thats true

Its gonna get delayed bc if the winter storm though

Def getting delayed too

Everything will likely be here in 2 weeks so ill build it then ill work on accumulating enough money to make it bigger and better

[final topaz]

how do i mount a linear rail to the z axis?

[hasty steppe]

i dont think thats Z

and traditionally u mount 2 rails to the upper V slots on the sides

but ive also seen some ppl do 1 rail on top

on a 4040

[glass sparrow]

Two parallel MGN12s on the opposing top slots of the 4040 is most common, as Fluffy said

[final topaz]

i meant y my bad i get them confused 😭

i know z being vertical space makes sense with 3d printers but it messes up in my head sometimes

[final topaz]

i wonder if i could take a part from the frame and replace it with that to do this

[keen marten]

Huh? No don't replace the Y extrusion unless with something more beefy

[final topaz]

that makes sense

bed heavy

and go fast

and needs high stability

i wonder how i could go about mounting just one to this aluminum extrusion then

id really like to this as cheap as possible afterall

[keen marten]

Offcenter. But I would go for dual rails if you want to go fast

Or drill/tap the mid rib

[hasty steppe]

yeah one rail is only a good idea on the v1

[final topaz]

ill do dual rails in the future then but i should still be able to go mostly fast with just one for now

[final topaz]

i could do that

[keen marten]

Straight, preferrably

[final topaz]

yeah because if the holes arent straight then the rail wont be straight then bad things will happen

[keen marten]

"why are my calibration cubes rhomboid?"

[final topaz]

ill try doing holes if it doesnt work out ill do off center

and ill add a second rail when i do belted z

[keen marten]

Not an xyz cube but an xyz cube

Oi

[final topaz]

the #xyz# cube is just a lil special

[keen marten]

Sorry. Markdown🙈

[final topaz]

Im gonna 3d print a guide by lining up the rail and extrusion in fusion so hopefully itll be as straight as possible that way

[final topaz]

Potential klipper runner acquired

[final topaz]

My money's stuck in my cashapp and my bank is slow so no part cooling stuff ordered

[final topaz]

Rails came

Mgn12h so smol

[final topaz]

Working laptop and klipper

[final topaz]

I still need to figure out how to go about printing ABS ahhh

[final topaz]

Magnets, tz v6 2.0, 82w heater arrived today chat

[agile tundra]

Dry filament

heat up hotend

put filament in

enclose

[final topaz]

Fumes scary

[agile tundra]

heat chamber

slice

send print

[agile tundra]

They aren't.

[final topaz]

Fine fine I print when not in room
