overview for UncleStewart

Once upon a time I booted my laptop after I forgot it in the car over night. The classical spinning disk didn't make it. Lost everything on the disk. Best is to acclimatize the computer to room temperature if you have a spinning disk. Haven't tried with a SSD. I'm theory it should work (I believe). Sorry for no clear answer..

Probably why they "see" things clearer

That just works more like an antenna than anything else..

Biqu B1 SKR V1.4 mainboard to SKR MINI E3 V3? in c/[email protected]

[–] UncleStewart 1 points 6 months ago

Looking closer on the X, Y, Z and E ports i observe that the ports are labeled different on the two cards.
Old SKR v1.4: Square pin = 1B, next pin = 1A, next = 2A, and last is 2B. Also the order is EN | STOP | DIR
New SKR MINI: Square pin = 2B, next pin = 1B, next = 1A, and last is 2A. The order looks like EN | STOP | DIR

Should i rearrange the wires in the JST so that the wire that on the old card was connected to 1B, also is connected to 1B on the new card, and so on?

The EN | STOP | DIR part is in the same direction in the pinouts, even the whole connector is upside-down on the SKR MINI. Why is this? Is this just labeling the round pins?

Arrghh, I have so many noob questions..

Biqu B1 - Not heating the hotend in c/[email protected]

Haha, slowly it goes.. Changing the SKR v1.4 to a SKR MINI V3 isn't straight forward on the Biqu B1.

Biqu B1 - Not heating the hotend (sh.itjust.works)

Hi

A couple of days ago the hotend wouldn't heat up and i got a couple of errorcodes/warnings in the display. The bed heats up just fine, so i ordered a new hotend parts (heater, thermistor and a new aluminum block). Changed all of this, but still the same error. I can se that the thermistor works because it changes values in the display when touching the thermistor-end. Any good ideas why the heater doesn't heat?

Noob with a Biqu B1 and BLTouch (self.3dprinting)

Hi

I've bought myself a used Biqu B1 with a BLTouch for a fair price. The seller said that he never got the BLTouch working. Now I`m trying to get the auto leveling to work, but every tutorial and video shows the ABL option in the menu, but i do not have that option. The BLTouch is connected as every video and instruction manual shows, the sensor has flipped down a couple of times so that too is working, and the red led-light i always on. Other menu-guides shown in different internet tutorials also shows minor menu variations from my printer.

Some useful info: System: Marlin 2.1.1 Board: Bigtreetech_TFT35_B1_V3.0 Firmware: TFT35_B1_V3.0.26.x Me: Complete noob with no knowledge of 3D printing lingo

What should be done to get the ABL option in my menu?

Openvpn / pihole - change administration link (self.selfhosted)

submitted 11 months ago by UncleStewart to c/[email protected]

Hi So, I've had openvpn running on a raspberry pi for over a year with no problems. After some braining I concluded that I also should run pihole on the same raspberry pi. After all it's "just a DNS resolver". Both are running great together on the raspberry. But, I can't administer openvpn because they both use "/admin", and because I installed pihole last, well I can now only administer pihole. So, how do I make one of them use something like "/admin2" ?

Thanks
