Having soldered many of both, I should have noticed. I literally just threw out a big pile of both that have been loitering in storage for years. I’m still surprised when old tech (for any random definition of “old”) pops up.

Serial cables. How quaint.

I have two. You can borrow one for a while.

Yup. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vi_(text_editor)

I feel this.

I wish I could upvote this twice.

Damnit…

Update: I wasn’t able to fiddle with it for a few days but after getting back to it have something I like.

My current settings are based on the feedback in this thread and:

z-offset made the single biggest difference. I reset the printer config and re-leveled.

I printed a tower a few days ago and it looks good anywhere from 200 to 215. I’m going to keep trying though.

z offset / nozzle height seems to be the thing. I’ve raised it up and it looks better. After that I played with the temp a bit and it seems to be happier around 210-215 though there is more stringing.

So far, all attempts at ironing have been a disaster, both zig zag and concentric. I’m going to continue dialing in the z offset and temp before ironing.

Weird. I couldn’t post the original pic but a screenshot of it seems to work.

The spool doesn’t say “silk” but the sticker does say print temp 215-230: https://www.amazon.com/Inland-1-75mm-White-Printer-Filament/dp/B084RDMG7C/ I’ll give that a shot & see if it looks any better.

Wow. That brings back memories!

I have heard that when cars were a rare thing in the Old West that drivers had to stop at intersections, get out, and fire a gun to warn any horse-powered cross traffic. It sounds like total bs but there have been stranger laws…

Yeah, I like it. I’ll be playing with the acoustics for a while to get the sound I want. The wireless is solid, no drops or other headaches. I had an issue with it loosing my custom config a couple of times on the default firmware but not since flashing the latest. My chief complaint is that it doesn’t support qmk. I’m not clear on why, though, since it supports Via and I thought qmk was a prerequisite for it.

I’ve got some coming in from Ali along with a couple of others that were mentioned. They won’t arrive for a bit though.

Thanks for summarizing. That guy has a ton of videos!

Hmm… I have gateron blues in my Keychron but they’re not hot-swap. I may pickup a 10 pack of the Cherry’s to test.
