Adaptive Start G-code for Dual Extruder Printers with Cura
Choosing a reliable start G-code that primes a dual extruder printer is difficult. This post explains the different extruder prime techniques and how my adaptive priming start G-code for Cura incorporates these techniques for dual nozzle printers.
Manually Resuming a Failed Print at a Specific Layer
Easily resume a failed print at a specific layer by trimming the start of your G-code file and adding the below resume start G-code.
M140 Sxx ; Start heating bed
G28
M109 T0 Sxxx ; Heating to PLA temp
G92 Exxx ; Set extruder position
G0 Zxx.xx ; Set Z position
G1 F1500 Exxx
More detailed instructions are in the full post.
Creality K1 series 3D Printer Cura Start G-code
Automatically set the correct extruder and bed temperature to match the printed material when printing with the Creality K1 series 3D printer in Cura with the start G-code below.
M140 S0

START_PRINT EXTRUDER_TEMP={material_print_temperature} BED_TEMP={material_bed_temperature}
Toyota Corolla Cross Hybrid Spare Tire Upgrade
Add a spare wheel and jack under the cargo area of your Toyota Corolla Cross Hybrid (CCH) as the overlanding gods intended.
The hybrid AWD model of the Corolla Cross does not include a spare wheel or jack from the factory so we can add the spare ourselves.
I made a tire mount that fits over the power cable lever and elevates the spare tire to avoid stressing the cable.

Ultimaker S3/S5/S7 3D Printer PrusaSlicer Profile
You may need PrusaSlicer to slice a model to print on your Ultimaker S3/S5/S7 3D printer for a multitude of reasons:
- Slicing error
- PrusaSlicer specific surface patterns
- Different prime tower shapes
- Experimentation
The Ultimaker S-line printers usually refuse to print model G-code sliced with PrusaSlicer and non-Cura slicers by default due to a special header requirement and custom homing/leveling routine.
I added a PrusaSlicer Ultimaker printer profile that generates the headers and start G-code needed by the Ultimaker S-line printers so that you can easily slice and print to your Ultimaker S-line printer with PrusaSlicer.
