That is not how it is supposed to look, the end result should be at least a couple of inches wide.

Maybe you don’t need to ‘fix’ your retraction settings?

If it looks good enough, why bother?

Wasn’t aware of the test (SuperSlicer user here), and found this.

The tower has multiple notches, each one corresponding to a different retraction length. By looking at the tower after printing, you can see how each retraction length affects the print quality.

So check your surface finish and select the retraction value with the best looks.

NetApp makes storage devices, just like Dell’s DataDomain.

Looks like the ad is referring to a ST6000NM0034, a drive from Seagate. Personally, I like to stay away from that brand as far as possible.

Have had good experiences with WD.

Depending on the size, but I’ve had success with super glue and baking soda.

Openscad, just because…

Probably convenient to have access to an 3D printer

Ender 3v2 as starter here, doubled the price with a lot of upgrades/modifications. Got it running rock solid with Klipper and a microswiss direct drive.

Grabbed the piggy bank and am now really satisfied with my voron 2.4.

But very pleased with the fact I started with the Ender and got to learn then basics.

As far as I can suggest anything; start with something with a large installed base, so it will be easy to find answers or (hardware) solutions to your problems. I can tell you, the installed base for Ender is large, but the quality of the hardware, is what you pay. And they are cheap…

Well, they just lost some customers…

SuperSlicer, nightly builds from GitHub.

No experience with qmk on these controllers, but connected several of these oled displays to esp32 microcontrollers without any problems.

CS, SDA and SCL will be your spi bus, the D/C is an output (from controller pov, input for the display) to signal the ‘mode’ of operation.

Good luck.

SDA/SCL pair is probably i2c, CS chip-select? But that would be more appropriate for spi.

DC is probably to switch the display controller between command and data modes. So you will have to connect that to a gpio on your blue pill to let software switch between data/command.

Alrighty… Big fat S P I on the back of the PCB (: facepalm:). So SDA/SCL is data and clock for the spi-bus. Hth.

This is nice! When in need, this can be a life saver. Thank you!
