  • I use a textured sheet for all of my Prusament PLA prints on my Core One and XL, and it’s never given me a hint of trouble. I’m using the Prusa-provided profiles with zero tweaks.

    I just hit it with a bunch of 99% IPA while it’s cold and scrub it with paper towels before every single print. I don’t heat it up until all of the IPA has dissolved, since apparently PEI is incompatible with hot IPA. I’ve never washed my sheets with soap, I’ve never applied any sort of bonding agents to them, and I’ve never sanded them.

    Maybe you just have a bad print sheet?


  • As someone else linked, it’s called that because the Colt Single Action Army revolver was nicknamed as such. Colt’s slogan was some variation of this:

    God created men equal, Col. Colt made them equal…

    If equality is peace, then anything to enforce that would be a “peace maker.” I uh, don’t necessarily agree with that sentiment, but it was popular in the American West for a long ass time.



















  • Steak is safe to consume at lower temperatures. The interior of the meat is mostly free from bacteria, so while you still need to cook it, it’s not as important. 120f internal becomes 130ish internal after resting as the heat on the outside migrates in, which results in a perfect medium-rare piece of beef.

    Do NOT do this with hamburger, however. Grinding beef up mixes all the bacteria on the surface into the inside so you’ve gotta cook that shit to 165 °F.
