LOL, Wirlybird - "test it out and see". I wish I had that luxury. My deadline is so desperate that if I lose hours of printing through a test I'm screwed. But if I have no choice but to change temps...
Wut? While a print is running? How do you do that? And would it override all the other temp settings on the other processes?
Well, yesterday the SD card was the least of my worries. I had my second extruder clog/filament jam since I've owned the machine, and it was my own damned fault. I added an extra process into a...
Nepherael - well that is certainly interesting. Actually last night I did take the card out and put it back in without turning off the machine, and it worked. But the next time I get a card read...
Thank you for your feedback and advice wirlybird! For right now I am sidestepping the problem by putting in the card when the machine is off, but I'll keep you posted as things evolve.
Hmmm, wirlybird, I actually have folders, and a fair number of files, on the card. I did delete some and it didn't seem to help.
Anyway, I just went out and got exactly what you suggested - Sandisk...
OK, CA, that's what I'll try. Do you know if there are any limitations on file name length or characters, spaces, etc. that might be contributing to my problems?
Wirlybird, thanks for that. I'd like to try to format it without installing a new piece of software just for that purpose, but I will keep that program in mind if I have problems.
Unfortunately,...
Hi Folks, as some of you may remember from a few months ago, I am using a Flashforge Creator Pro for a project with an extremely difficult deadline. I really hate to ask you another SD card question,...
Thanks. BoozeKashi! I do think at some point I would like to try a .3 nozzle, but for right now I'm so absorbed in the Blender/design work i can't worry about anything else.
However, I did a good...
Yes, I know that outside in is bad for overhangs, but is it better for detail? I could set up a separate process for overhangs, switch from inside/out to outside/in when I need to.
In thinking about it, I think you're right - I'm up against the limitations of the nozzle size. With a .4 nozzle, every right angle is going to have a radius of .2 That's not objectionable with...
That tower is the only Blender model I've had any problems with. Simplify gave me a "very small, convert to millimeters?" message when I imported it. I think Simplify just had trouble parsing the...
Thanks CA.
You got me curious, and I just reimported that tower model into Simplify. It displays weirdly, as if it has all kind of flipped normals, although it doesn't. It displays as if a number...
My first time trying to post pics here and I'm not seeing a way to add text to the post...
Since you asked, CA, here's pics of the original firehouse that is the first building I modeled, the...

CA, I printed at 100 micron resolution. The piece I'm doing now I set to print at 200 microns for most of it, then change to 100 microns when it got to the top detailed surfaces. (I've learned how to...
So far the Buildtak is working very well for me. But I'm presently printing my biggest piece yet - we'll see how much trouble I have getting it off the bed.
But I'm using ABS, not polycarbonate.
...
Thanks for asking, BoozeKashi! I received the machine last Thursday, but didn't get to do my first test print until yesterday - just a 1 1/2" X 3/4" box that's included as a test object, in ABS. It...
Thanks, CA!
Well, I just purchased my Flashforge Creator Pro. I decided to go with the well established brand name where I know I can get tech support, online advice and replacement parts. That's worth the extra...
If I get a klic-n-print and need replacement parts - can I find them?
And can I use Simplify 3D on the Klic-n-Print?
I think I have made my decision. I think I am going to order a Flashforge Creator Pro tomorrow.
Anyone want to talk me out of it? :)
I'll admit I am concerned about the whole business with the...
Hi Folks - I have seen some fabulous reviews of the Prusa i3 MK2, and the price is great - but I've also seen that there's currently a 7 week wait for delivery, and I have a project that won't let me...
