Successful repair operation to replace the extruder fan on the Prusa i3MK3 3d printer. As previously reported, I was receiving sporadic temperature failures, which eventually lead to complete failures whenever the first layer was completed. The screen indicated either a TMC overtemp error, or a Crash Detected. In reality, it was neither. Instead, it was…

Been dealing with a problem with my 3d printer, the Prusa i3MK3s that I have been running for the last couple of years. Up until recently, it has been running very well – solid prints, reliable operation, no major issues. In recent months, I did have an issue with bed adhesion to the removable build…

Updating on my 3d-printed life-size B1 Battle droid, which is slowly taking shape. I have completed the head, and most of the torso, after several days of printing.

As commented before, I have been working on converting to using PrusaSlicer for my 3d printing and slicing. This has the advantage of a stock, supported configuration for the i3MK3s. However, it has required quite a bit of adjustments to the configuration, in order to run “well”. I continue to have challenges with supports, especially…
The Razorcrest

by
As part of my growing terrain collection for Star Wars Legion, I opted to 3d print a scale model of the Razorcrest from the Star Wars Mandalorian series. This was a pretty long print, even with the low infill, but the model ended up pretty good. It is perhaps a bit too small and out…
