  1. I want to share this video for everyone who has an ender 3, or wants to buy one, to check out if their printer have the same problem:
  2. I just finished a print of a saturn V rocket model i found on thingiverse. this is the model i used: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:45316 We had a blackout due to a heavy rain that hit tonight and the resume function worked as it should. The print came out really nice. Here is a picture of it:
  3. I was trying to make a m48 t2 adapter for my coma corrector but i couldn't create a custom thread in fusion 360. If someone could help me out with this i can make a test print to see how it goes.
  4. Interesting. Do you cover the whole glass? Does it get ripped with the models when you remove them?
  5. Piezo sensor looks interesting, is there any videos showing it fitted to an ender?
  6. The one thing i want to add to my ender 3 is auto bed leveling. I'm still researching the best method between capacitive or inductive sensors, etc.
  7. That test went really well then, looks like pixinsight did its magic Could you post or pm me a picture of how it looks like without processing? Thanks
  8. ? impressive for a bortle 9 sky. What filters did you use?
  9. Mine didn't work when the update failed, it was taking a long time for the controller to boot and eventually give an error. I had to connect it to an old computer with a serial port and the update finished and the controller got working again.
  10. Thanks, gonna try it. Also do you know a way to get the upper layer smooth (i don't know the right translation to English). The upper layer looks grainy, full of dots, on thinginverse there are some print examples that show it without that pattern. I tried to print a sonic model and the base also had that pattern. Thanks
  11. Hey Louise, the ender 3 arrived and i did some test prints with it. The test dog came out nice. I also just did this test: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:1363023 and it also did very good at it. This is a picture of the test print: It looks better "in person" than in the picture. Edit: i printed it using simplify 3d with a medium quality setting.
  12. It has a slightly different name in the usa, bkp 130ds. I did a search and found a store in Canada that sells it, but i don't know if i can post a link to it here.
  13. Sure, as soon as it arrives and i get it to work
  14. Hi, Louise. I just bought a creality ender 3 and I'm waiting for it to arrive. It's a good printer under 200 usd. There are a few videos on YouTube reviewing it.
  15. i think mine is out of collimation, my copy of ccd inspector expired and can't check it anymore. it would be nice if someone could analyze it for me
  16. You got a lot of Ha too, great image. i'm considering to mod mine, but i don't like red overwhelming the entire picture. Hope you can get it. I wanna see
  17. Last one, the good old m8 lagoom nebula I'm focusing more on this is target to see how much detail i cam get out of it. This is about 5 hours of integration time from different nights taken with iso 400 and 4 minute exposure and with flats. I found that iso 400 works best for me. The camera is a t5i unmodded and i still can't use the coma corrector, I'll try to have a friend to help me with it.
  18. They're all good targets, i like the lagoon more.
  19. Thanks, yes it's still unmodded, I'm still considering if I will. I was aiming for the southern Pleiades but LP was too much, so i went for the lagoon.
  20. My last one, m8-lagoon nebula. Only 58 minutes worth of integration. Ps: i named it wrong when saving
  21. Thanks again, i used the upper part of the Cheshire. I'll make those adjustments you mentioned and try again. Here's a picture of what i used, i guess the hole is too small compared to your picture.
  22. Thanks a lot, Alacant. This is how it looks like through the cap and with the focuser racked all the way out : This one is from the secondary without anything on the focuser just to show its position related to the draw tube: I noticed that if i rack in the focuser and look through the cap, the position of the reflection shifts., it moves over to the left.
