duk242 commented on Best Crash Course in 3D Printing?
Filaments: PLA is easiest to work with. PETG is next one up that's a bit tougher. Use the one nozzle 0.4mm. Worry about different nozzles…
duk242 commented on VHS VCR Head Cleaner Kit with Cleaning Fluid $14.95 Delivered @ Selby Acoustics via Amazon AU
I've been using the ol' Paper and Isopropyl trick. Cheap as, works well and you can actually see how much crap comes off the vcr heads!
The DDJ-400 or DDJ-FLX4 are your best bets. Avoid the DDJ-200 as it doesn't have a built in sound card so you're left using a headphone…

Nope! I had the SanDisk ones before, they got super hot and the transfer slows right down. These ones stay cool and fast. I have like 5 of…

These things are pretty good, I use them in a primary school, kids can cut cardboard without cutting themselves :P

Bunnings! Take that pic in on your phone, they'll know the thing. Looks like a split pin, but wider - You could just get a split pin and…
I was thinking exactly this too. Sadly the actual reason is way less interesting... :P
duk242 replied to AlienC on What Wireless Headset Are You Currently Using or Have Found to Be Very Good in The past?
Yeah, she's pretty happy with the G733 - the microphone being closer to her mouth makes it better when there's two of us in the room -…
The question is: Do they have decent pricing at woolies atm? The standard price to beat atm is $23.40 for a 30 pack Amazon Sub and Save…
duk242 replied to AlienC on What Wireless Headset Are You Currently Using or Have Found to Be Very Good in The past?
I've used Corsair, HyperX, Logitech and Steelseries with myself and my partner. The Corsair one battery failed after less than a year…
duk242 replied to AlienC on What Wireless Headset Are You Currently Using or Have Found to Be Very Good in The past?
I got them about 6 years ago, in 2018 for $407. They've been superseeded by the newer Arctis Nova Pro Wireless now.
duk242 commented on What Wireless Headset Are You Currently Using or Have Found to Be Very Good in The past?
I've had the Steelseries Arctis Pro Wireless for about 5 years now - still going strong. Swappable batteries mean no downtime if you forget…

As someone who buys HP machines (like 100 at a time) for work - usually the ProBook/Elitebooks... The fact that the HD Monitor is standard…
duk242 replied to coxymla on Metapen Pencil A11 $19.99 + Shipping ($0 with Prime / $59 Spend) @ Metapen Direct via Amazon AU
The Pro uses The Gen2 Pencils - Apple really screwed up when they did all their Apple Pencil compatability stuff :|

$10 off deal is gone now :(

Why buy one of these kits when I have mushrooms growing in my bathroom for free?
You can also try Imgburn - https://www.imgburn.com/ I believe it does ISO files? Bit for bit copying is best to create an exact image, but…

duk242 commented on 3D Printer with Enclosure
The Bambu printers seem to be really good at producing stuff that just works out of the box. I'm balls deep in a couple of older Ender 3's…

Damn that's brutal. I got no advice for you, but I feel for you.

duk242 commented on Recommend Me a Vice with Swivel
I restored and old rusty one I found at my parents place - It was pretty poor quality to begin with, took an angle grinder to it to clean…
Apologies for not being clearer, by "ACCC Level Offence" I meant that it was a breach of fair trading laws, so bringing it to the attention…
You okay there buddy?
duk242 commented on Ripped off on a Laptop Warranty Claim?
