  • I went through a somewhat similar situation to you it seems. I’m a pilot in Canada who had some medical issues and wanted to do the right thing and report it. Talked to my aviation medical examiner and he said it should be resolved within a month or two but it would need to be reviewed by the provincial head aviation medical examiner as it was a unique case. They came back wanting me to have 2 years of tests done costing $10k+ per year and monthly appointments to confirm I was fit to fly, and even after that I wouldn’t be allowed to fly alone to start which was required for the training I was doing at the time. So sadly I no longer fly. I tried taking it to a tribunal but that process was so disgusting slow it didn’t make a difference, lawyers could have helped but I didn’t have enough funds for one, my training was interrupted and it would have taken years to fight it. In terms of solutions, I really have no idea what can be done without a complete overhaul in the aviation medical system. The current system essentially requires a perfect health pilot or you don’t get a medical and it just encourages people to hide issues. It’s probably the major reason why alcoholism is so high among commercial pilots, it’s one of the few things that doesn’t put their career in danger as long as they stick to the rules.


  • It sort of sounds like a resonance thing to me. If you try speeding up or slowing down the print and it stops making that noise, it’s most likely resonance. Are you able to get an idea of where the noise seems to be coming from? Like the gantry or base, etc. I also know people have been putting automotive sound deadener inside the enclosure on the bottom panel as it seems to make a lot of noise from resonance.


  • Yeah, its a bit of a pain if thats what it requires. Luckily none of the ones I’ve worked on so far have been off by more than a millimeter across the bed and thats acceptable to me (at least for where these machines are going) for bed leveling to do the rest so I havent opened up the bottom on any yet. Solid machines printing wise though! Been incredibly impressed so far despite hit or miss reviews online, only failed prints I’ve had are from met arranging models poorly. And no worries, best of luck with the machine!


  • Ok, I can’t really confirm this for sure as these machines have to be delivered later today and I can’t go taking them apart, but I took a look at our K1’s and my guess is no. I think the grub screws you see in the case are for collars that keep the lead screws at the correct height, with no motor below there’s nothing else to stop them moving down. To adjust the bed level you’d have to loosen off the set screws that the sync T belt uses and thats only accessible from the base.



  • Roblox may not be hosting the gambling sites but they certainly don’t seem to be trying to stop them. I thought there would be a bunch of hoops you would need to jump through in order to deposit Robux into the gambling site but it just straight up removes it from your Roblox account balance. Is there any legitimate reason as to why that’s a feature? My old account got hacked like 10 years ago and they had more security in place for removing Robux than they do now, at least then they had to deposit all mine into a group and then cash it out, you couldn’t just have it removed.



  • I think it might still be too early to say for certain. It appears that a lot of the teams working on replication have pretty different outcomes and I think the theoretical studies have shown superconduction may be possible when a very specific structure forms, so maybe the formula just isn’t perfected yet or it needs very specific conditions to form correctly. We’ll know soon enough though, it’s at the very least still an interesting material that deserves more looking into.



  • I have the CR Scan Lizard but have only used it for a few scanning jobs so far. Anything reflective causes a lot of issues with the scan but I was able to get some decent quality scans of my face, my hand, and a few other random objects I tested it on. Knowing how it performs now, I wouldn’t have paid full price. I feel the hardware is okay but the software is what holds it back, no alternative software that works with it either to my knowledge.



  • Yeah thats weird, I was thinking instead of recalling the mesh it was re-running it instead. It may still be from that but I figured the pre-sliced test files would work fine if that were the case. I’ve set up about 10 S1 Pro’s at this point and haven’t encountered that before. As someone else mentioned it may be worth looking into aftermarket 3rd party firmware options. If its not a gcode issue that leads me to think its something with the printer firmware. At work right now but let me know if you need any help and I’ll try to reply tonight.
