What is your must have hardware for your finished prints? (Screws, magnets, etc.) - Lemmy.world
I’m looking to start keeping hardware for prints that need additional parts to
complete them. A Pi case that I printed needed screws that I don’t have on hand
and needed to go searching for some. It got me thinking to keep a container of
stuff ready that would get used often, but I don’t really know what to keep on
hand. What do you have readily available?
Is there any aggregate site(s) to find tech related conferences/conventions that have public attendance?

Is there any aggregate site(s) to find tech related conferences/conventions that have public attendance? - Lemmy.world
In person or online for anything tech related such as hardware, software,
development, gaming, etc. In the past I’ve only found conventions by chance or
through work related means. Through work was always related to the services we
used, which was awesome, but very limited subjects. Unfortunately don’t have
that option anymore. I get super jazzed and motivated when I’m able to attend
but I’ve really never been able to find any when I’m actively looking.
Additional question: what’s the last convention or conference that you were
really exited about but it turned out to be a disappointment? For me, there was
a game developer conference at a local university that turned out to be only a
few hours and three guest speakers, no Q and A. It was interesting at least.

Used Ender 3 pro - odd issues with axis movement and auto home goes to center of build plate - Lemmy.world
I picked this up as an Amazon return/open box. The person that returned it just
swapped their old printer and returned it. Anyways, I was able to get it running
and starting it up I am able to move all axis like normal. But when I select
Auto Home the z will lift about 5mm. This lift happens no matter where it’s
located. The head and print bed will move to their zero points and touch the
sensors then both move to roughly their center points. From this point all the
axis will only move in the positive directions (starting at ~145 and can move to
150 but won’t move back to the 145 position. X, Y, and Z will all do this). From
what I found, it sounds like the BLTouch firmware may be installed, as there is
also a leveling option in the menus. I’m not sure if this would explain the axis
movement issues though. I have tried reseating all connections, tightened power
supply connections, resetting to factory through the menu and gcode, and
changing/updating firmware. Updating the firmware seems to be failing as it
boots up normally and the versions don’t change (formatted to FAT32 with 4k
sectors). I’m guessing I may need to replace some hardware but if there’s
anything else I can try first, I would love to get some input. Printer info:
