It'd scared me...
It would be like evil sounding wailing, local rags would be full of Bigfoot 'heard' in the area..
or Aliens knowing the area we live in..wooooooooooooooooohoooooooooooooooooooo :eek:
Thought you were scared of nowt!
Not the wail of the Banshee, keeping watch.
We have 5c and slowly falling,
I'd go with the aliens(area) over Bigfoot. No recent sightings of Bigfoot either.
sunny, blue skies and everywhere was white with JFrost early AM...
It fell to minus 2.9c during the night between mid of night and the AM of 2...

Had to throw on a shirt of Tee to head out and see Nursey....while Mrs M picked up the Toodles Gang.
I had left a print going when I was out, I had used the newish plate bed and everything really stuck to it, I meant stuck, could be the rapid cooling today of the PLA..
Anyhow, back on with the worn plant bed and no problem this time.
Four pins to do yet...
Overcast and it dropped a fair bit more during the night, skies cleared apparently letting it drop. We'd the wind of snow, but no snow, early on. No snow since either, and they promised us as well.

Hope you'd more than the shirt of Tee on when you presented yerself for inspection.
Thought you were "off" now until next year?
Maybe they're keeping an eye on you as you keep an eye on them...
Now I know this may sound daft, but I thought those plate beds were non-stick by design. Lucky you kept the old one to hand.
That's easy do, walk round in yer bare feet. You'll have them found in next to no time. And you have the advantage of one dodgy foot already.

Fine afternoon:hello:
10 hrs until 2026, jeez.
I'll raise a glass tomorrow, as I really don't celebrate HNY...
Find it a bore now....

I do wish all you fine people all the very best for 2026...
and the best of health and fortune hence...
Dry here at least.
Owdo
Less than eight hours left of 2025. Can we skip 2026 and go straight to 2027 instead.
I find raising a glass the best way of supping from it.

And you folk North o'Border always did it better.
The same to Thee and Thine, and the "Toodle Twins".

You haven't met the Terror Two..
they really are good..

4.9c just now..
I'd my usual shorts and a big furry jumper,
I looked like a blue Teddy....
Last appointment for the year..
A card full from Jan....and a hossie one.

This I have never seen anything so well stuck.
I need an enclosure for the winter....
Everything I was doing is now done..
I'll do a self-levelling later and do some examples tomorrow.
It's the inconsistency of the difference of the 'slicing (creation of the G Code file which the printer needs) file between upgrades but it's free.
4.5c, oh boy, it's dropping..
I have a plate bed which is, Texture PIA..
Must look into it....

I'm I'm giving myself the rest of the year off, I deserve it.
Catch up next year..
All the very for 2026.....

That's true enough, nor have I heard the three of you singing together...

Just above freezing here at present, and it's gonna get colder if the skies clear.
Don't see how you could fit another one in this year.
A Steiff!
Best o'luck with the hossie appointment, meet some new nursies there... Explain everything, again, to them.

It could be the weather, gets blamed for everything these days, why not yer printing.
And if you wanted it to stick...
A spare plate!

I think you deserve the rest of the year off. You could have sung it in along with the Toodle Twins.
All the best to thee and thine, and see you next year...

Good day, Mr C :cuppa:
I'm resisting the :cheers: so far..
A coffee for the afternoon then kapow !!!!

I've been trying a setting and it showed one only blemish on the first layer, on the model I'm doing the bottom (first) layer will have a non slip material put on..so if a bit wonky it will still do..
One more print to try with a different shade of PLA to see if the brand I'm using is the problem,
I do have to adjust wall thickness (.2x2 = .4) but it does lay down pretty well but the funny thing it works okay on the other programs I can use, down to one setting, the samples were to be picked up yesterday but this and that as usual....

Feet up and see if anything on....
TV has been abysmal, searched through the prog list and jeez....
Toodlepip...

Forgot to add,
I do an Extrusion first before I print, either as I chage the colour or just to make sure no blockages etc and principally to ensure its constant.
The waste which lands on the plate is a lot quicker cooling if it's cold. Normally I have to wait a wee bit to throw the 'snot' (tech term) to cool and now? seconds it takes...

Owdo Mr M...
Yer doing well in that case.
Only the one coffee then lights out!
What sorta coffee yer drinking?

Eliminating all variables...
Non slip meaning it'll be going on the floor, or highly polished tabletop.
Could just be a bad batch, if they're all from the same manufacturer. If it is what yer using at fault.
Samples, hope yer declaring income from yer increasing business. Who'd expect to pick up on New Years Eve!

It's that time of year when they get to show stuff they daren't put on the rest of the year, and get away with it. Anything you'd not seen before?

Well, cleaning n' checking yer nozzle is running free is important...
Same pattern of "snot"(gotta love these technical terms) left on'plate each time, before you shift it. You think it might be the colder weather causing the problem, still...

Somebody dropped a bag of icing sugar :rolleyes:

Samples? not selling, doing a favour for something, also giving me a way of using settings I never use.
I'm happy with this one....black bit is more just to hide the name of it...latest version of Mk3 printing and should be finished between 1 and 2 am..been going since around 4pm:laugh:
One below was done in just 210 mins approx so much better than 10 hours 27 mins the prog reckons...
IMG_0644.JPEG

My brain is frazzled for the year...Z Hops and filament temps, and lifted travel..
and an alarm set for 2 am..

Any aircraft overhead that might have lost a bag, maybe two?

But doing samples might lead to sales, once word gets out. They might not believe you were doing test/practice pieces alone.
Not Mickeys mouse is it!
Done/completed around 2am, explains the alarm being set...
A wee difference in times, yer not missing anything on it.

Brain frazzled for the year, we're only on the first day of the year. How you gonna manage the rest of the year?

Have you gone "kapow" yet...

Good morning residents of Tealandia :cuppa:
We'll start with a cuppa, too much effort to wave...
Snow still here, barely a burst bag of sugar...
Mrs M has gone for the usual 'guests'....

It worked,
I still prefer the grey one, seems a better finish...
I'll be busy today again..
No wicked for the rest.

The Creality one obviously is a print speed difference but I had to double the wall thickness which slows it down a bit (on the finer items), the key base is okay...but I'll just set it to print at 4 instead of 2, makes life easier in the long run...Weird, once you install an update, its suppose to be better? not the last one..

Better go get the kettle ready, the apple and banana......

Too tiring to wave! Sounds like you need a nice quiet day, doing very little.
That the "heavy snow" that were forecast.
On those roads, on her own. Suppose she gets stuck in traffic!
Bang goes yer quiet day though...
