Lazy Thursday: Octoprint setup

No major projects done today, but I spent the night finishing up an OctoPrint setup with the Ender 3 I bought used off a friend.  I’ve got it hooked up to a smart power plug so I can power on/off the printer from my computer in another room.  I did the bare minimum networking setup to give them reserved local IPS, and set up a DNS entry for the OctoPi since android phones apparently don’t like .local domains.

There is a lot of tuning up that needs to be done with the printer.  I was hoping it was decent enough to just print up some basic miniatures for summons for Gloomhaven.  I foolishly started with skeletons, which were too fragile, even when printed too large for the scale, and there was a ton of stringing.
