🆎Today my 3d printer will mostly be quietly printing.... a dual cyclone dust separator.
I am sick and tired of my workshop vacuum cleaner's filter filling up and ruining performance. It's also an unpleasant job knocking the dust out, then jetting it with compressed air to fully clean it. This (should) just drop 90+% of the dust into an air tight bucket. What a win, if it works!
This is a 168MB Gcode file. It's so big it won't load into Fluidd's web progress monitor thingy.
ARGH power interruption. I switched on an aircon and the breaker popped. I think we have too many things with slight leakage on one side of our old split load board. Fuck. It’s interrupted the print. The printer is offering to continue where it left off, I’ll be impressed if it really can.
Theolodian@bloor is the aircon wired into a ring main? Common problem if so.
@theolodian yeah that’s right, it’s temporary ; we intend to put in a new consumer unit with individual breakers BUT at present it’s a split load board so lots of stuff all on one. Sigh. It’s done it once before. Also whilst firing up an aircon.
@bloor yeah it was a pretty penny updating all of ours, new board with SPD & RCBOs. Effing painful! 😵💫
@theolodian my plan is to install a new board in the garage, get the hang of it, then bravely attempt the house one with what I’ll hopefully have learned.
@bloor yeah, I had a new board added in the garage first. Then did the same thing in the main house. Took 2 years all told, and several kiloquid.
@theolodian I am hoping for a few centiquid on each board TBH.
