Wanted to give everyone an update. I decided to order a new fan (Because some idiot broke a fan blade off the cooling fan while it was running because he was not paying attention and let something...

Thank You beerdart. I have my old one soaking in a cap full of fingernail polish. Stupid me, I looked at the bottle and it states non acetone so I am going to run to the store and grab a bottle of...

I just pulled the nozzle off and I am pretty sure it is clogged. I think I will just order a new hot end and see if that helps.

I can put it in, and it pushes in with no resistance until I feel it start to melt. I have then pulled it out tried it with vegetable oil on it. Still does not help. I am thinking of just ordering...

This is the hot end I ordered with my Printer from Colin at Makerfarm.

.40mm Hexagon Nozzle for 1.75mm Filament(Prints ABS, PLA...

Printbus I went through your guide as recommended and worked each idea and could not figure it out. Then working with Colin I decided to just take and order a new spool of filament. Was going to...

Last year I had my printer humming and printed a few cool things. got busy over the summer and let it sit. Nothing changed, nothing was touched. now all of the sudden it does not feed the...

Are you kidding. I am so excited who could sleep. It is now 5 hours in. Going to go watch some tv and check in on it on the commercials.

So far it has been running for 2 hours and has not jammed and it is progressing well. Cannot believe that I picked such a large file, but hey I knew this one worked. I am guessing I am in for a...

I decided to try a different file.... One that has printed good in the past. It makes 8 scale jack stands for r\c cars. One can never had too many jack stands right? Decided to run it and see how...

This is driving me nuts. Got a nice first layer put down and I decided to let it run for a bit to see what happened, while I sat and watched it. First layer seemed like it was actually putting out...

I will try that. I just loaded a different roll to see if maybe it was because it was the end of an old roll.

I have a Makerfarm 8" i3v I have not used it all summer as had other things going and it was printing fine then. I decided to dust it off and see what I could do during the winter on a couple of...

Good Morning all,

I am working on a part for someone and the prototype I printed out of PLA. He was going to have the parts Machined out of Aluminum, but found out the cost of getting these 6...

Thank You. I will look into this. Sure am looking forward to winter getting here so everything else that is going on slows down and I can get back to working with my printer.

What is the best way to cut parts to print and then assemble them after printing? I am working on a Trailer for a RC truck and the parts I downloaded off Thingiverse are bigger than my print...

Thank You. I do not think it is a moisture problem as the filament was fresh out of an air tight bag with dessicant. When I am not actually printing, I pull it off the printer, put it in a big...

Over the weekend my daughter wanted to print something for a friend of hers. I said fine, but I want you to either model it yourself or find a model on your own... Trying to teach her to either want...

Hi all, I am sure that this is a real easy question for some of you to answer so here goes.

I know on the controls I can move the X and the Y with the nob on the control panel. Just wondering is...

Some of the scale stuff I am printing for these guys are

Recently I have been building 1/10 scale detail pieces for a few people I know that are into Scale RC stuff. I am working on a Large trailer right now that has dual axles and is made in many pieces....

printbus please do not thing I am offended in any way. After rereading what I posted it might have come across that way. Honestly I just want to learn how all this works and improve what I already...

In reading the Pre-Requisites above I would say I can probably not do this, but I am not going to let that discourage me. I know nothing of C/C++ Code and most of everything up there is greek to me....

I think this is a great question. I think I understand that it dynamically will adjust the Z plane throughout the print and not the first layer, however I may be wrong.

Another question... I...
