Hacking the CR30 to print in layers Video

Watch on YouTube For those wondering where the scale factor came from of “About 1.4” or more precisely 1.4142, all you do is remember what you learned in trig, draw a right angle triangle with an angle of 45 degrees, set the hypotenuse to one, and to find the opposite angle use the cosine function (though at a 45 degree …

Thingiverse leak, Thangs answers, and Prusa Printers

Watch on YouTube It took me dozens of takes over 3 evenings to get this single take video done right. All because I didn’t want to edit it.
