    I was kind of getting really desperate, as I usually, IMO, take good care of the machine. And usually I know hoe to solve issues. But in hindsight, and after checking timestamps, I do believe it is the slicer. When I updated it earlier this year I printed some figs, but couldn’t troubleshoot during to time constraints, and I parked it. So recently I picked up printing some more, but it didn’t connect immediately.

    So yeah, I blame the slicer, and my lack of time.


  • Thanks for taking the time to reply.

    I eventually ended up removing my slicer (Chitubox basic) and install the latest and greatest after cleaning up my profile. So literally starting anew.

    Aside from changing te resin, I didn’t modify any other settings to begin with, so my config was rather vanilla.

    After taking these steps (and cleaning the z-axis and replacing the nofep again) everything seems to be working fine now.

    Cleaning the axis and a new nofep didn’t seem to do anything, so I think it was just a crappy version of the slicer.

  • Hey, I cleaned the z-axis: no change I replaced the nofep (again): no change I removed my old slicer (Chitubox Basic 1.9.5) and installed the latest (2.1). I cleaned up my profile, so it was vanilla config: what do you know: it seems to work now!

    Still running some prints to monitor any changes, but it’s looking good!

    Thank you for your time!

  • This is exactly the same question I asked 3 years ago when my brother died, and left all his tech stuff to his non-tech wife and kids.

    Fortunately I was able to migrate whatever was important to cloud-based services.

    But what will happen if this happens to me? I have no other siblings, and I made it a habit not consorting with techies: I don’t like nerds 😉, and I prefer to talk about other subjects in my spare time.

    One of the reasons I used to self host a lot is privacy, and because I am an Open Source advocate. So I migrated everything important to commercial offerings which supported both, or at least the Privacy part.

    I share a passwords through a password manager with my wife and kids, which gives them the keys to the kingdom. They can use my master password to unlock the doors. I also keep a paper with my most important passwords in a place my wife knows about, and can access without any proof of my death. Joint safes in the bank typically get sealed until the tax people have released the accounts.

    Everything which I host myself now is disposable, and my wife knows she can turn it off without a second thought.
