3D printing dependency hell Toggle visibility

I decided to upgrade my printer with an all metal hotend and a fancy ruby nozzle (diamond ones are super expensive to import sadly) so I can print more filaments and especially print PETG better.

The issue is that the kit I bought needs a tiny but pretty complicated piece of plastic 3D printed to fit my printer. Because it's in an area that gets rather hot, I need to print that part out of PETG.

I have now printed that piece 3 times with different slicing settings to finally get a version that might be close enough to the model to work.

thinking back to school Toggle visibility

I had an english teacher who once held an entire speech on how students like me who pick up all of their english through TV shows and the internet and never study vocabulary always end up falling behind and failing at some point.

I haven't changed my approach to the language, graduated a couple years ago with english being my best grade, I am learning another language using an english based course right now, and I have been living in a majority english speaking household for more than half a year at this point and it still hasn't happened.
I guess it's due any day now.
