I have probably had about 4 hours of sleep in the last 35+ but I am trying to keep busy.

I have been working on this project from something I posted in on and off for a week or so while waiting on part's I didn't already have at home. https://poal.co/s/RaspberryPi/781563

& shame my soldering or not. It's a 40 pin header on a RPi Zero2w. I didn't brick it so that's good. I have not gotten it hooked up to the battery/UPS thing yet and will probably leave that until tomorrow when my head is on straight. I don't like the idea of screwing around with 18650 cells when I am not "all there".

Ill have a post either in DIY/DIYTech or split and in 3dPrinting when it's done. I am having problems trying to print the gasket with the flexible filament though so that might be something I have to Improvise.

I must be full retard since it looks like I cant figure out how to do an Album after being awake for so long.

Everything is in "good" shape and the filament is brand new. I have never printed with the flexible stuff before. I may run some of the stuff I have to clean out the nozzle to see if that does the trick.

I had a brand new roll of filament once that I just could not get to print right. Threw it in the dryer and it worked great. I figured it was brand new so it would be good.

Is it a flexible filament though? This thing is like a rubber band. I don't have a proper dryer but I'll throw it into a vac bag with some extra silicone packets.

That will take weeks to pull out moisture. Put it in your oven at a low temp for a few hours, especially if you have one of those convection ovens that blow the air around. Open the door every 15 minutes or so to let out moisture.
