JLCPCB: created my ZIP on April 10th, received today on April 16th via DHL courrier.
I'm not going to break any records with this shipment.
:wink:
It is cool that we can now track container ships in real time.

Note: JLCPCB wraps PCBs so they can withstand an airdrop with no parachute when they have components mounted.
Latest JLCPCB order to Canada:
- 14 PCBs, no components mounted
- ZIP files were...
At first I went "Aaaaah crap".
Then I went "YAY! I can use the other side for my tests".
And then I found out the support pins are staggered and not reversible, "Aaaaah crap".
:D
Just got my first order of 14 circuits, these look good:

Until you see the other end:

Creality support eventually replied. They linked me to a video on how to debug the printer, but I'm supposed to video myself doing that. I'm not set up with an area to open a printer and film, I...
Yup. I googled "jlcpcb steals design" to see if there's a history of incidents, and fell on this thread right away:

Exactly. It's really fast to print an empty shell, but don't sneeze on it. :D
The hard part is finding that right balance. I don't have stress testing equipment, so I have to use my better...
Yup. You can chose from many infill patterns at varying degrees of fill.
I start at the lightest just to test fitment, then move up until it's as strong as I want.
Now this is a lot more reasonable than the Ender.

5 hours 35 minutes for what was gonna take nearly 2 days. This is the normal profile in Cura (from Anycubic...
The Ender is relegated to small jobs, if I fix it.
Just got an Anycubic Kobra 2 Max, 420x420x500 and goes at ludicrous speed of 500.
This was out the box with no tweaking, must have been around...
Just a slight adjustment for the power jack and I'm done. It fits (super tight), but it's not as smooth as the 3 other connectors.

Did I mention that I bricked BOTH the mainboard and display cause their firmware upgrade instructions were garbage? I just left the new ones I bought at whatever version they were at.
I was...
Now why hasn't creality ever suggested that to me. Not a question really. :mad:
Thanks for that, I have a tube coming in on Monday. :cool: I already have another hot-end / thermistor assembly...
Ender 3 S1 Plus bought new March 2023, terrible service since. Started having trouble with abnormal temps within 6 months. I got fed up of useless customer support and bought a new hot-end,...
Trial and error:

Still have some fine-tuning to do.
Yup. I didn't even bother checking for quantities.
My enclosures consist of 3 parts; it's not like they will assemble it, the wrap and ship (they probably offer the service, but I'm not...
Any idea where I can find a drawing for a HDMI connector?
I'd like to reproduce the curves as closely as possible in a panel. The general outline I can manage, it's that curvy part I'd like to...
I didn't even know JLCPCB offered 3D services. I have only one fear when dealing with China; it's having my idea stolen. I grew up in a time when China regularly cloned western products. I'm sure...
The more I think about it, the more I'm leaning towards 3D printing to make the enclosures. There's a LOT of details in using liquid plastic, the one that scares the crap out of me is the vacuum...
Sometimes when you make support panels, they might not have a lot of detail and it's not always apparent which way is which.
So I add little alignment markers to help me when I assemble it for a...
45deg was too shallow, 50deg was too tall, 47.5deg was just right under the upper limit, and fit within caution area on bed.

Print time is not realistic. This...
You just like me for my pictures...
Turn out I can print the main parts in one piece. I'm pushing the limits of my Ender 3 S1 Plus, but in theory "it should work". The parts should have enough rigidity to withstand the stresses of...
I've been playing with FreeCad; testing different ways to align the holes for the connections to the controller board. I finally got the splice tool working properly (I didn't want to watch videos ...
