Exactly. I made a delta printer about 10 years ago from scratch. Every part has been updated and updated again. Its an adventure.

Do you have any pictures or info on your printer? What would you change?

Have you looked at Klipper to tune out the high speed Issues?

Looking to build on a budget right now. Basically I would dismantle my belt printer to build this and it’s a core xy so I have all the parts including the hot end. I hear you on the core xy, it has its disadvantages, but it makes a clean, easy to make machine. What’s not clean is the Z axis and I agree with you on the screws. I would love a cleaner simpler way of doing z, thats why I am entertaining the idea of a core XZ belt slinger. It does split all the motion up nicely.

I design my own printers and like the challenge. Vorons are expensive and have a ton of parts. I like unique stuff. Ive made my own delta printer and conveyor belt printer. The limitations of those leave me wanting a more traditional style.

Thanks I will have to check it out. I wish it had a flatpak or deb though. I hate appimages.

They nominate positions on the FTC, which is supposed to be responsible for managing monopolies. Recent nominations have shown interest in updating or outdated policies regarding monopolies.

What valve does is so distinct from what most of the industry does the comparison is laughable. Valve is still a company and not our friend sure, but they are not openly anti-consumer like EA or Blizzard. And they don’t abuse their monopolies like Google or Microsoft.

I almost ordered, but this was a deal breaker.

I’m wondering the same, but for the US. I ordered from banggood in years back, but it was hit or miss.

No offense, but I made the list and didn’t include mixing hot ends.

That’s pretty cool and I like the name. Looks complicated, but something that could be added later.

2 shouldn’t have a problem with oozing or cooking since the second filament is not in the hot area.

IDK, thats why I asked.

That’s a cool way of doing it, but it seems like it would be difficult to align. In my case, I am thinking of doing a belt style printer, so that may be even more difficult to engineer.

None of that applies to option 2 or 3 though.

Y splitter is something that goes in the middle of the Bowden tube to allow two extruders. Its similar to #2 but allows you to use any hot end.

Been fine for me. I think it crashed once. On vsh I had a problem where I couldn’t punch.

I’d just like to interject for a moment. What you’re referring to as GNU/Linux, is in fact, GNU/Linux/Wine/Proton, or as I’ve recently taken to calling it, GNU plus Linux plus wine plus proton. GNU/Linux is not an operating system unto itself, but rather another free component of a fully functioning GNU system made useful by the GNU corelibs, shell utilities compatibility layers and vital system components comprising a full OS as defined by POSIX.

Many computer users run a modified version of the wine/proton system every day, without realizing it. Through a peculiar turn of events, the version of wine/proton which is widely used today is often called “steam”, and many of its users are not aware that it is basically the wine/proton system, developed by the win Project and valve.

There really is a GNU/Linux, and these people are using it, but it is just a part of the system they use. Linux is the kernel: the program in the system that allocates the machine’s resources to the other programs that you run. The kernel is an essential part of an operating system, but useless by itself; it can only function in the context of a complete operating system. GNU/Linux is normally used in combination with the wine/proton compatibility layer: the whole system is basically GNU/Linux with wine/proton added, or GNU/Linux/Wine/Proton. All the so-called “GNU/Linux” distributions are really distributions of GNU/Linux/Wine/Proton.

Launch steam through the terminal and see if it gives you any info. Mine would crash when I used voice chat. I ended up using the flatpak version.
