Making, Cat Ornament.

I try making a cat ornament.
The cat is designed a ornament that sits on the edge.

Try 1.
At first, the cat design using 123d design then make STL data.
Making STL data converts slicing g-code by Slic3r.
But Slic3r made superfluous data in the g-code. It isn't support parts.

Try 2.
Slic3r can't make support part in successfully by Slic3r. I have no choice but split data at legs. Legs designed to fit into mold shape.
A part of legs is satisfactory result, but bust partially is made superfluous data in g-code.

Try 3.
I tamper with objects data, so change size, angle, position and cat's face... Data making and printing tried several running.
At last, I can make successfully one.
If only printing bust, it's shape looks like SEIZA(formal style sitting in Japan).


The cat sits on edge.
   123d design data
   STL data

Conclusion.
Slic3r fail making data that was made STL data conditions, so slight changing oject construct objects, for example objects size, angle and position.

Try! ABS material 3D printing.

Scoovo C170 specs is not formally supported ABS material.
... But I try printing 3D objects by ABS material.

I got ABS material at Amazon.
   3Dcreators sells materials in Amazon.

Try 1.
   I try same test bed condition that face is masking tape only.

   Result.
      Printed object don't stick on test bed.
      ABS material don't stick masking tape face.

   Measures.
      I use glue(borrow my son, he using school),
      it spread on masking tape face.
      An object stick on test bed steady.

Try 2.
   Slic3r don't change all  slicing parameters when PLA printed.

   Result.
      First layer fixed on test bet. (Try 1. successfully)
      Printed objects are apt to exfoliate between layers
      or exfoliated object cling around the print head.

   Measures.
      Melting temperature up to 230°C.
      (Temperature range, PLA 190-220°C, ABS 200-250°C)
      Layer height down to 0.05mm from 0.1mm.
      (Maker specs says minimum thin is 0.1mm.)
      And the settings don't use "Easy mode", using to "Advance mode".

      Advanced mode can adjust detail of objects making parameters.
         + First layer settings.
            + Temperature 230°C.
            + Height is 0.35mm
         + Other layer
            + Temperature 230°C.
            + Height is 0.05mm

Try 3.
   I'll completely finish an object making!

   Result.
      I decrease layer height by Try 2, so don't cover top face. (;_;)

   Measures.
      Solid layers increase number to five which are bottom and top face layers.

      Added change parameters.
         + Solid layers
            + Top 5
            + Bottom 5

Sample an Object. (Three pointed star)
This three pointed start is made two pats. It only fit isn't use glue.
Navy blue part is ABS material.
White is PLA material.

Why don't use CPU over 44% in Windows 10 ?

Using in Windows 10 increase CPU percentage working after a while. Although I uninstall sykeype programs. However CPU consumption percentage stick 44% when internet surfing use browser for a while. In addition, doesn't CPU consumption decrease I quit browser. And more, I'm bothered cooling fan noise!
Why?

 Is This condition only Windows 10?

Search Result:
The reason for CPU consumption problem is 32 bit emulator in Windows 10 64 bit. The emulator is idiot.
And necessary applications use little 32 bit programs in the 64 bit environment.
Browsers Google Chrome and FireFox, download not specific 64 bit, or downloading 32 bit automatically.  (`=')

I uninstall 32 bit Chrome and FireFox and install 64 bit them, so my PC work normal after rebooting.

More information:
Google Drive for PC.
   It is only deployed 32 bit program.  I was remove one.

Apache OpenOffice for Windows.
   It is only deployed 32 bit program.  Apache announces done.
   give up. I reboot my PC sometimes.

Caution, 64 bit environment is mixed 32 bit programs!

Installed Window 10 adjust my favorite UI.

I upgraded Windows 10.
However I dislike Windows 10's UI.


I like Windows 10 rather than Windows8. But I'm annoyed  windows menu right side shown images. Those images are said "Tile". Microsoft like "Tile" from Wondows 1.0.
I try to remove tiles! WinKey → Settings → Personalization → Start, set "OFF" "Show more tiles", and displayed tile set "Unpin from start" one by one.

Task bar fix on upper, icon is small. Task bar transparent adjust off that Settings → Personalization → Colours →"Make Start, taskbar and Action Center transparent".
I can't adjust color minutely, it's OK for now.

Login(Sign in) screen.
I dislike displayed user name on sign in screen. How don't sign in screen display user name?
... I research...
I find a way, as usual, changing handle "regedit.exe".
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\System
dontdisplaylastusername <-- 1
Sign in screen displayed "Other user", so input require user name and pass word.

And more, How do Administrator define? I input Administrator at user name, but can't sign in. Next, command prompt run as administrator, and user confirm by net command. Although Windows Home Edition has not means setting administrator user, net command can set pass word at administrator.


So this PC can sign in via Administrator user.

Skype disable.
Windows 10 increase CPU percentage working after a while. Why does process consume CPU power? I showed Task Manager and seek CPU consumption process. I find "Skypehost,exe". Why doing? I don't install Skype.
I google, so it installed default Windows 10 and can uninstall them.
   ---->Original
I try below Steps:
   + WinKey + I, shoe Settings
   + Select "System"
   + Select "Apps and Features"
   + Uninstall "Messaging", "Skype Video App" and "Skype App"

I'd rather not default installing unnecessary programs, Microsoft.

Change lock screen
I dislike beach cave picture on "System Lock Screen"
Lock screen change by WinKey+I → Personalization → Lock Screen, but it's after sign in lock screen. I want to change lock screen is before sign in!
In case of do not adjust normal way with Windows, when it use "regedit.exe" as usual.

At first, regedit.exe run. WinKey+R, input "rededit".

Second, Make a new key.
Select "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Plicies\Microsoft\Windows\", and right click show menu, so select "New" --> "Key".
New key name "Personalization"

Next, Make a new value.
Right click made Personalization key, select menu "String Value".
Make new registry and name "LockScreenImage"
This registry set your favorite a picture full path.
Ex.



Incidentally Personalization NoLickScreen(DWORD)=1 is not display lock screen.
I don't try many picture size and formats(Ex. is 1920x1080 jpeg).



THIS PAGE IS NO WARRANTY.
I recommend save windows registry before working.
I hope you get Happy!
