Euro 2008 has just started recently and I wanted to know your opinions. Please tell me who you think will win and why (Switzerland was not added in the poll because they have no chance to win).
The Euro is the Futbol or soccer name for the European Championships. There are 16 teams participating in this tournament which began in early June and will end on June 29th, 2008. The tournament is being hosted by two countries, Austria and Switzerland. The Euro is considered as good as or even better than the FIFA World Cup which determines the Futbol world champion. The Tournament has lasted since 1960 and is a major sporting event in all of Europe. Much like the FIFA World Cup, the Euro only comes every 4 years giving the champion up to 7,500,000€ and bragging rights.

Sqrage, it's just like the NBA or NFL, but instead of teams in the US, it's european countries.

I'm rooting for France. I'm glad that Italy lost against Netherlands.

France is quite good, but me being Polish, I have to root for my home team.

I think ger or holland will win. Sweden doesn't have a chance. It's a good team, it's always been, but they're never special in any way

I don't care who wins, the TV's been rubbing it in our faces that England didn't get to the finals, so I really don't give a crap. That said, I think Germany stand a good chance this time round, and Spain usually perform quite well.

Holland will probably win, as they are doing very well atm. Though I'm Austrian too I'm not going to be optimistic and say Austria will win, they won't. They have to beat Germany.

I live in Austria, Vienna where the final is :D . Unfortunately I didn't get any tickets.

I thought Netherlands would reach the finals, they started off so good, undefeated in the hardest group.

Shame Croatia went out, they deserved to beat Turkey. Turkey were playing for penalties, and their equaliser came 2 seconds after the extra time finished, but the ref didn't call it. Quite ironic that I would support them really, considering they knocked England out :rolleyes:

    Crazy how much 3d printing has come in the last few years. Sad that it's not as easily modifiable though
  • Varine Varine:
    I bought an Ender 3 during the pandemic and tinkered with it all the time. Just bought a Sovol, not as easy. I'm trying to make it use a different nozzle because I have a fuck ton of Volcanos, and they use what is basically a modified volcano that is just a smidge longer, and almost every part on this thing needs to be redone to make it work
  • Varine Varine:
    Luckily I have a 3d printer for that, I guess. But it's ridiculous. The regular volcanos are 21mm, these Sovol versions are about 23.5mm
  • Varine Varine:
    So, 2.5mm longer. But the thing that measures the bed is about 1.5mm above the nozzle, so if I swap it with a volcano then I'm 1mm behind it. So cool, new bracket to swap that, but THEN the fan shroud to direct air at the part is ALSO going to be .5mm to low, and so I need to redo that, but by doing that it is a little bit off where it should be blowing and it's throwing it at the heating block instead of the part, and fuck man
  • Varine Varine:
    I didn't realize they designed this entire thing to NOT be modded. I would have just got a fucking Bambu if I knew that, the whole point was I could fuck with this. And no one else makes shit for Sovol so I have to go through them, and they have... interesting pricing models. So I have a new extruder altogether that I'm taking apart and going to just design a whole new one to use my nozzles. Dumb design.
  • Varine Varine:
    Can't just buy a new heatblock, you need to get a whole hotend - so block, heater cartridge, thermistor, heatbreak, and nozzle. And they put this fucking paste in there so I can't take the thermistor or cartridge out with any ease, that's 30 dollars. Or you can get the whole extrudor with the direct driver AND that heatblock for like 50, but you still can't get any of it to come apart
  • Varine Varine:
    Partsbuilt has individual parts I found but they're expensive. I think I can get bits swapped around and make this work with generic shit though
