Upon further review, the print did not fail and delamination was caused by excessive removal force.

Did not end up identifying a good power tap point in the car yesterday. This morning I discovered that the Fluke 87 test leads used have a blunt tip that does not make proper contact into the topside end of a micro-fuse. This invalidated my “find power at the fuse box” search. Found a set of HP-34130A test lead kit ends that are pointed enough to properly fit into the fuse upper contact test points - will try again today to find power. Getting closer. #HamRadio #Mobile #LessonLearned

I've been 3D-printing for around five and a half years. So I'm not a rookie, but I just made a #rookie #mistake.

I've spent the last couple of weeks making compartments and dividers and such for the toolboxes I take to the Repair Cafe. Lots of test #prints to check fits and footprints, full prints, changes to design based on lessons learned during use at the last cafe, etc. I've put around three kilograms of #filament through my printer in that time.

Then, in the last couple days, I started having various problems. At first they only showed up on big prints - #adhesion and #curling, which I've had before when pushing the limits of my bed size. But prints seemed to be getting #sloppier, and I had a couple of spaghetti explosions.

Tonight, I finally took the #hotend apart and looked at it closely - it's very difficult to do when the printer is fully assembled, because it's a #delta printer.

Lo and behold, the nozzle appeared worn. And that can account for all the problems.

I should have checked this sooner - but I've only been printing plain #PLA, nothing abrasive, so I didn't think of it. Lesson learned.

Pardon the shitty photo from a cheap digital magnifier. The old #nozzle #orifice is about 1.5x the diameter of the new one - so 2.25x the area. No wonder plastic was going everywhere but where it should go!

Seems to be printing *much* better with a new nozzle.

Order is restored. The errant have learned their lesson under my watchful eye.
Maintain perfection, or face a swifter return.

I was in a real crunch, and I was weak. I used AI to generate the documentation for an API I'd just written. And I was pressed for time, so I only looked over it briefly before sending it out.

Now I get to implement all the endpoints and parameters it "hallucinated."

Time saved on documentation: 1~2 hours.
Time lost to implementing and testing spurious features: 4~6 hours.

If I can offer a little piece of advice: if someone gives you a freshly baked blondie at a party, don’t tell them it tastes just like Debbie Harry.
