That is good news then. I will pick up a set. Thanks for the tip on them.
I have a set of small wooden handle ones that work great but one of them broke as there was not enough of a tang going into it.

Thanks! Yes, the cable chain is a needed upgrade for long term printing. I still have to print the blowers but will aim for this weekend. The accordion support is great when it all comes out in one shot. :)
Thanks!
Nice, picked myself up a pair too. :cool:
Here is a link to where I got help and settings for OctoPi.

Every now and then I have to click "Restart OctoPi" but for the most part it works well.
The accordion support was great. I just took my needle nose pliers, pushed from the open end towards the inside of the blower so that it broke free of the supports at the starting area. Then I took the just the end and started pulling it out. It all came out. Nice and clean.
I printed the blower nice and slow as well to get the best layers I could in ABS.
Right now I am printing the calibration cube with the blower. Fingers crossed.
Well the box was much much better with the dual blower. I am trying Benchy again to see how it goes. I hope this time it goes better.
Extruder is at 200c bed at 40c, no sides or top, and ambient temp in the room is 67f.
Fingers crossed. I think I have some things I want to print in PLA/PHA so I am hoping this time it gets that last little bit set.

The cube looks pretty good to me! :)
Took a picture of the printer running at night with my LCD Night Shade (black) covering the front panel LCD. The lights are also off via the on/off switch I wired into the lighting system.
