Things I've learned since going vegan

• You can slice someone's throat and still love them.
• The word "need" can also mean "could easily live without but do kinda want".
• The word "humane" can mean literally anything you want it to.
• It's ok to call people out for harmful behaviour unless that behaviour involves bacon.
• Plants definitely feel pain and lawns scream when you mow them.
• Crop workers are exploited but slaughterhouse workers definitely aren't. No exploitation here, no sir.
• Meat is the only food that contains protein.
• "Found the vegan" is still funny and original the millionth time.
• Before humans came along, cows were just wandering around with massive udders praying for someone to invent industrialised agriculture.
• Steak is cheaper than beans, rice, pasta, and canned vegetables.
• While 99% of all meat comes from factory farms, no one eats that meat.
• Everyone only buys local, organic, humane, Dalai Lama approved meat.
• Everyone has an uncle who owns a farm straight out of a 1950's Americana magazine
• Everyone has a degree in nutrition and evolutionary biology.
• Everyone knows that one guy who went vegan and almost died.
• Everyone is free to talk about their identity, beliefs and interests without being shamed for them. Unless they're vegan. Vegans can fuck off.

No crumbshot yet, cooling. It's a bit of a frankenloaf as I didn't have enough flour but had already started the process.

about 30% white bread flour, 30% rye, and 30% horrible supermarket wholemeal. ~80% hydration.

Tbh I was surprised it came out of the rattan thing as the rye + high hydration makes a pretty sticky mess. However it seemed enough water leeched through the wood during proofing that the rice flour did it's thing.

Includes a little jig off the side to bend the leads regularly, and holds the LEDs in consistent orientation using the cathode cutaway on the rim.

btw It is food safe to drink coffee next to 3d printed parts nerds ;)

P.S. this filament is awful, filamentium pla. The worst thing I've used since early reprap days when variability was high.

Any ideas what's causing that "shadowing" between the holes? those parts printed last I think but at the same speed/ironing pattern etc as the more matte parts between.

It'a detained by magnets so it doesn't get in the basket and interfere with spreading out the grounds. Needs a clean up with a lick of sandpaper, pretty stupid but these things cost like 50 bucks /shrug

EDIT: appreciate all the concern for my health, it touches dry coffee grounds. I agree that if it got wet there'd be health problems but unless it gets real humid there's just no opportunity for decay. As for random leaching same diff, without heat and wet it's not really a concern.

That said I probably will seal an improved design, this is just a test piece.

I'm sorry for making this.

A straw is just a stretched doughnut.

This should be an interesting case to watch. It seems on it's face something utterly inhumane and so it will be important to know whether it is considered legitimate.

See attached photo for the results of the bed levelling test using superslicer's calibration test.

This is using the uhhh mriscoc firmware after heating to thermal equilibrium, tramming to tolerance, doing a 9x9 mesh which found a high point at the super messed up bottom left corner (higher than tramming result? but slightly further out).

I have M420 S1 in my custom gcode, and for insanity's sake checked the gcode of the part and it's in the custom block and start block.

Any ideas what's going on? every other section is okay, although back right is a bit distant.

EDIT 2023-07-11T08:27(UTC): So after some shenanigans the current findings are summarised as following:

• Z travel speed during probing needs to be slow
• multiple probing (3 samples) creates reproducible meshes and tramming wizard results
• Trying to enable the mesh via G29 A ; Activate UBL \n G29 L0 ; Load mesh in slot 0 \n G29 J ; Correct for skew didn't seem to work. Replacing that whole block with M420 L0 S1 makes the Z axis move during XY translation (from which I infer the mesh is loaded and being used correctly vs my printer is possessed)
• The above would seem to me to indicate the marlin documentation is wrong? as it suggests using G29 L# and G29 A respectively.

As of the time of update, that lower right corner is proving troubling, still. I think it's an issue with the location of the probe and interpolation results vs actual geometry of the bed. By that I mean, if we define down on your screen as positive X and right on your screen as positive Y the probe is located at MX, -NY vs the print head, thus the extreme location cannot be sampled. If the bed geometry is not smooth at that extreme then the automated fill in of my 9x9 grid might be wrong. I will attempt manually leveling that section and see if that helps

EDIT the second:

I'm going insane. Will take some photos in the morning but mesh values in the left front of the bed are wildly different from actual height.

Building the mesh with the probe will report a sort of hill in the centre going to low corners, the front left will report something like -0.3mm (although the mesh display only shows -0.2 mm editing the value shows it's lower) but if I go into the edit mode and manually probe that location it'll crash into the bed hard.

Setting it for light dragging on paper akin to the sort felt in the centre of the bed where values are accurate will have the mesh height at ~0.1 mm. A 0.3 mm difference? what the fuuuuuuuck?

EDIT: 2023-07-13T08+00:00: I figured it out. Thanks for your advice and patience. I will add pictures of the meshes at various stages to this post at a later date to assist any other wanderer in madness in identifying and solving the same problem.

In essence neither X or Y were square, the probe being offset in both X and Y created the problem. Because of the gantry construction it would be non trivial to square the XZ gantry to the Y axis so instead I verified that Y was not twisted and instead squared X to the best of my ability and precision tools.

Then I printed this part: https://www.printables.com/model/255096-sprite-extruder-ender-s1-pluspro-cr-touch-mount-fo to which my eternal gratitude goes out to a Mr S Grindset for providing in order to move the probe to be colinear with the print head in X. Ensuring that any error due to Y not being square is even for the probe and print head.

Now it is pretty good! Auto leveling works well enough to get "pretty even" layers, certainly none of the nasty ripples and ploughing I was experiencing.
