any of you nerds got a $5~ 40mm fan rec for my 3d printer?

whats the header on the printer? 3pin or 4?

 

2 pin lmao

wanhao i3 V2 clone

 

oh... nice lol. Uh well since itll be pinned full speed get a 40mm noctua with fat blades and just use 2 pins.

$14 Noctua NF-A4x10 FLX, Premium Quiet Fan, 3-Pin (40x10mm, Brown)

They have a 5v version of that fan too if that's what it outputs

 

on one hand I know it's buy once cry once, on the other idk about dropping $30 into a 9(???) year old printer

tho it is still kicking alright

 

The school I work at just lost its engineering teacher and is giving me the makerbot they have... i have no idea how to use it but how hard can it be.

 

you'll be just fine, worst part is the terminology and calibration

is all pretty straightforward

 

I've run CNC mills so I'm expecting it'll be just touching off on the baseplate for an offset and badabing badaboom parts come out?

 

Finished editing the photos of the Lexus. 192 images should be plenty for the auction.

 

pretty much, level the bed and set nozzle height zero

slice stls in cura to get gcode customized for your printer, nozzle size, filament choices

 

100% infill all the time, no slicing, all material

 

huh um yea perfect

 

i prefer the crème filling

 

unsolicited advice: use Elmer's glue stick for print bed adhesion to keep prints from lifting and doing wonky shit

 

It's also a nice snack while you wait

 

Looks like a proper MZ swap. But man that’s a lot of money for a car that’s got 70 less hp than the 3.5

 

@Speedytech7 do you have any old SFF boxes you could part with? wanting a pfsense box to replace my janky Netgear

 

Yeah probably have a Dell Optiplex 9010 at work or maybe a 7030... ill check.

 

Wait, you got a 3d printer don't you

 

yeeee

a buddy kicked me his old one when he upgraded. I use it every now and then but it's finicky lol. did a medium sized print yesterday and this morning but then it failed 2 consecutive prints
