First I used an usb-c adapter for the new ssd, this allowed me to copy all the files over from the existing disk using desktop mode and some terminal commands. Even the hidden files etc. After proper formatting and prepping the new disk.
Then I just replaced the old with the 1tb. Everything was the same: no loss of anything. The full 1tb was usable as well.
I followed a tut online just for the commands.
If you donāt find it: shoot! I will digg in my history :)
500x500 thatās huge! I donāt think I even have the space to put that in my house.. well without it being in the way that is.
Well for me it turned out the firmware they released yesterday solved my issues. Guess they shipped my kit with some new chips or something idk š¤·āāļø just wish they told me a beta was available Friday or even on the page itself.. oh well. At least I got to share my story with you guys š
What will be the first thing you print? Mine is the t-rex skull. Itās printing now. Amazing quality and speed. Really perfect first layer as wel I was literally drooling! Lol.
It was one of the prints I was very impressed of with my first printer, the Ender3v1. Never got around in doing him again on the mini. Life got in the way.. kinda regret that now but anyway it will be amazing to see the difference between both. So far Iām over the moon. The mk4 is a fantastic printer.
This version did solve my issues. I wish they suggested to try the beta Friday. Somehow I had no idea there even was a 5.0. I had to wait in the queue again this morning to ask for a status update when they told me.
I felt such a n00b!
And then I waited in the queue again to tell them it solved my issues. They really should implement a basic ticketing system imho.
Stay strong, I know from first hand with an Ender you need a loooooot of patience and then some.
My first printer was the Ender3v1. Pre Corona. Hell even printed things to help people make mouth guards during Coronaā¦ aaah the memoriesā¦ (bit /s)
What happened you ask? Well I upgraded almost everything on that one. The board. The fans. The plate. Automatic leveling,.. but not the extruder that was my limit. At that point the upgraded were the same price as the printer
And boy it was magic! The silence. The automatic leveling, man great times!
Until it wasnāt.
You see this printer was fine for a while and then suddenly it said: f you! And I would spend hours tinkering with it. Time I did not have.
So at one point I had enough.
Bought a mini on announce day, waited almost a year till they delivered and never looked back. Gave the Ender to my dad, and now he got the upgrade to the mini.
The Ender? Sits in a box. We gave up after yet another under extrusion problem, and gave the monies to another model instead.
So ā¦ if anyone lives in Eu/Belgium and is in need of spare parts for an Ender3? Shoot. I have lots. š
.. fun thing though: when I contacted them this morning againā¦ they said āhey we did release a firmware update yesterday can you try that one?ā
And you guessed it: that f## worked!!
I was over the moon!!
Bit sour that they didnāt tell me this Friday to well test with the Beta but still.. I donāt care now! man this printer is so ff amazing. I mean! Woweeeeee! Just amazing!
Thanks for the suggestion on the mini update, I will pass it on or do it myself later this week.
Thanks. I do actually. But thanks for giving me ideas, improvements can always be made! š
Itās more of a āunfinished project that is out of my hands now and I donāt know when it will be done even though I could probably fix it if..ā type of situation actually. Iām not good with that kind of anxiety and uncertainty.
That said: they say youāre never to old to learn ā¦.. but ā¦.. hmm š
Oh! Totally forgot about that one. Always hated it too!
Totally got a flashback here, when I read that awful saying - lol
For me it always felt like as a āyeah well deal with it, now keep quietā kinda saying, donāt you agree?
Anyway.. on topic: yeah I hope so too. I think the technical issue is something I can accept. As a tech person and developer thatās my life basically; thinking about this today made me realize itās the ānot being able to do anything while I know I could probably fix itā and the āok now when exactly are they going to get back to me?ā Thing that really bothers me.
The not knowing. Uncertainty. Thatās it. Just like I donāt know when a bug will be fixed in my code, this is what my clients feel.
Anyway Iām getting a bit physiological here, sorry about that. š
Man. I donāt know if we have something like that in Dutch but I agree: I kinda hate it too!
Iām sure it will get fixed. And indeed it will be a really nice setup, and story to tell after.
I think itās the waiting without having any sense of time or unable to do anything that always gets to me hard. Iām kinda spoiled that way given I and my family are very handy makers.
And Iām sure it will make for a nice experience story to tell afterwards, but man itās really a test of my āway to deal with extra uncertaintyā on top of .. you know life.
It even has an award system that gives āmetersā. Meaning if your models are very popular you could get printer for free.. or at least few spools/merch.
Edit: forgot the contest as well. Prizes are always good and on some big ones you could win a printer as well.
Thinking you might get a good change for both given you are clearly making good models, even if you cannot test them yet.
Itās funny when it starts to just invent things. Like packages, with version number!, that.. do not exists..
Or when it outputs code without using the variables ..
The most annoying thing is imho that it keeps explaining everything al the time. Even when I prompt āyou have a working app with vuejs..ā and others it sometimes still explains how to setup the app.
That said: the tool has become a staple in my workflow whenever I need a starting point. Or have to do some math algorithmic things
Personally I would not do that: you will disable the whole thing. And while it then can be packed in a flat back I cannot image it will not come at a big cost of stability and loose thingies after doing this over and over.
I would just put in one of those really useful boxes, make sure the bed and other axes cannot move to spare the stepper motors. I image myself using towels or clothes to do this, you know thing that I would have to move anyway.
That said: itās a great machine at a good price point. Youāll have lots of fun with it!
Iāve experience with 2 printers: Ender 3 orig and the prusa mini. Of those 2 the prusa wins. It wins on every front but certainly space/portability.
If you find a box that fits it, pad it a bit. I can see this totally working if handled with care. You can lift the thing with one hand steadily with the z motor. Spools with the holder are going in another box. š
Donāt buy an Ender 3 or something of the same category. These are only good to thinker with and brute force learn stuff. They absolutely do not travel well and take a lot, A LOT of space/money/time/frustration compared to the mini.
As someone who uses the actual rss feeds, reading the same feed without interaction is just .. a waste of time. Clutter. Annoying even.
Like you said: I come here for the interaction and/or to find an interesting article someone found in a channel Iām unaware off.
Not bot rss feed content.
I moved from 256 to 1tb.

The 5.0 official was released yesterday.

And then I waited in the queue again to tell them it solved my issues. They really should implement a basic ticketing system imho.
But anyway: What channels are you following to stay in the loop? Any good Rss feeds per chance? No Twitter or Facebook. Federated is okĆ© but I do prefer rss. Thatās almost the only one I donāt forget to check. š¤·āāļø
Iām a women but I feel you my guy! š

Thx! And u2!
And now I really want to know what a ratrig is š do tell!
Scratch that: I googled it.. and I should have known I guess š
And now I really want to learn a bit more about what you are building! Looks awesome
Thanks. I do actually. But thanks for giving me ideas, improvements can always be made! š

Haha indeed!

Just my 2 cents but yeah thatās basically it.

.. maybe drop Prusa Support a note with your question. Ask them what they would recommend. Just to get their opinion. Imho canāt hurt!
If you can safely move it without disassemble, I think the re-calibration would be minimal.
ā- Disclaimer: I have never done this. Although I believe this is going to be ok, Iām not responsible.
Imho that axis is the backbone of the whole unit.
Personally I would not do that: you will disable the whole thing. And while it then can be packed in a flat back I cannot image it will not come at a big cost of stability and loose thingies after doing this over and over.
I would just put in one of those really useful boxes, make sure the bed and other axes cannot move to spare the stepper motors. I image myself using towels or clothes to do this, you know thing that I would have to move anyway.

Filters are missing as well? Probably related
Tested again: fine in wpa, broken in app
Is it me? Or does āmark read on scrollā seems to be broken? Worked fine in the wpa ā for me the most awesome feature voyager has
