I had an issue when installing a DDX (Direct Drive Extruder) to my ender 3. It was not stable. The extruder kept wobbling, and I could quickly move it up and down, which was not normal. I tried tightening most of the bolts holding the mainframe of the extruder mount to the belt, but none…

Troubleshooting 3D Printer Issues
In my last blog post, I wrote about getting a new 3D Printer, the CR-10 S5. As of this moment, I am awaiting the arrival of the Pei sheet coming in the mail. So I thought I’d take this time to work on my smaller printer (the Ender 3), which I had upgraded to a…
New 3D Printer!
Recently I bought another 3d printer from a friend of my brother (Caleb). The original printer is a Creality CR-10 S5. This printer is the largest in the CR -10 series lineup, with a print size of 500x500x500 mm, which is massive compared to the average 3d printer. I bought the new printer for about…

Block YouTube Ads on TV
I hate advertisements especially on YouTube when they are playing on the TV especially when they are now “unskippable” and I have to watch them for fifteen seconds without being able to skip them.

Learning Minecraft Python Programming!
Recently I stumbled upon a book called “Adventures in Minecraft” written by Martin O’Hanlon, and David Whale. The book teaches you how to code in Minecraft with python, which is split up into chapters called “Adventures,” and basically, each “Adventure” is a short version of a “project” where you make a “mini-game” that runs in…
Setup Cloudflare DNS Proxy for Server
Recently when setting my WordPress site, one of the requirements I wanted to meet was having a proxy server protect it. Basically, a proxy server is where another person’s server hides the original IP of the base server. For example, this image: In my case, I wanted my public IP to be not seen by…
