I've got A LOT of failed prints with my #creality #ender5 #3Dprinter. It #clogs very easily. I tought the #filament was wet, but a couple of hours ago it #clogged very badly and I had to completely #disassemble the #extruder, #hotend and even cut a little piece of #bowdentube... before doing all this work I looked at a video explaining how to do it and...

...I SAW it. The #fan. The f...ing extruder fan in the video was running from the moment the #printer was switched on. I have never seen mine running, I always tought it was temperature controlled or something... It was just #jammed πŸ€¦β€β™‚οΈ Unfortunately the plastic was very tired by the heat, so a blade broke instantly while cleaning it.

It seems I have to wait for a #replacement part, but at least I found the problem. That's why the printer was SO #temperamental!

The designers of this headlamp, have made sure that you have full rights to repair

It's easily disassembled, when closed up it has the same amount of water resistance and the screws and sockets are in such a way that you can open it safely multiple times

Rights to repair done right

Anyone know how to #disassemble the drawers of an #IKEA #Malm drawer chest?

In particular, how do I get the 4 plastic pins (110519) back out that keep the sides of each drawer connected to its back without destroying them? Basically, how do I *undo* the step in the picture below?

Update: YT vid had the answer: Wedge a flathead between the boards and push it in until the pin pops out. Not 100% damage free, but it's a hidden spot and should not become a problem for another 2-3 disassemblies.

I realized that I haven't posted anything in a while regarding my #Sony CD #carousel that I'm turning into a #computer #case.
I've pretty much decided what lights and switches on the front panel to connect to my #motherboard or power supply, but there are some issues.
Like the door switch, which I'll be using to control the eject on my #DVD-ROM -- but is the switch open or closed? Sony says it's both! Time to break out the #meter...
Also, I need to figure out how to #disassemble the jog wheel :/
