  1. Well that's helpful.. I did fabricate a mount...

    Well that's helpful.. I did fabricate a mount for a switch and it works well. I just would really like to move that filament sensor to where it breaks most often. It's not for running out as much...
  2. I will give it a go, I've always been able to...

    I will give it a go, I've always been able to print at this speed/temp before w/o the issue. This spool of filament is about done but I'm curious if anything in these images tell people right away...
  3. Interesting print "defect" that does not occur around the entire print

    This is a round piece. Specs:The printer is a Duplicator i3+. I'm printing PLA (205C) Outer wall at 60mm/secInner at 80mm/sec.030mm layer height. Fairly new nozzle which is not clogged. Filament...
  4. I do understand this. I am not explaining myself...

    I do understand this. I am not explaining myself well i guess. My slicer should be slicing and varying fan speed and it is not. I do see only one M106 and it's at fan minimum. The piece does not...
  5. Duplicator i3, what are YOU doing for out of filament sensors?

    I really wanted to be able to monitor out of filament at the extruder as i have had multiple occasions where my filament has broken closer to the extruder than the filament spool. I designed and...
  6. Thanks, i understand the code. For some reason...

    Thanks, i understand the code. For some reason my slicer is just not changing fan speed on prints i feel meet the criteria for full fan speed. IE i have it set to full fan speed (M106 S255) at...
  7. This was a very short and wide print so it had...

    This was a very short and wide print so it had tons of surface area to bond to the plate. It was PETG too which bonds to the point I can barely get it off some times.
  8. Thank you, I had checked all mechanicals. I...

    Thank you, I had checked all mechanicals. I determined what had happened is during my first test print a bunch of excess ASA got between the printhead and the silicone sock as well as my fan shroud....
  9. Fan only goes to 50% in code despite setting, feel i'm missing something

    I use repetier w/ the cura slicer engine for this. Looking at gcode I'm at 50% fan speed after layer 1 and then it turns off at completion. The slicer is just not going past 50% fan speed for some...
  10. I think you may be onto something there. It also...

    I think you may be onto something there. It also happened w/ PLA but my PLA was a different color. Noticed blobs of the old RED color on my green print and then realized what happened more than...
  11. Larger PETG part, extreme layer shifting (Over 50mm up and 20mm right)

    This is the largest item I printed on PETG and it's also the first one w/ my new microswiss all metal hot end. I have a maker select V2. I had printhead at 260 and bed at 60. The print not only...

    I should have been a bit more clear. When I'm using a feeler gauge I am going around the entire perimeter of the bed multiple times until I've got the exact same distance between the printhead and...
  14. Anyone have any opinions?

  15. Weird curling problem when printing a thin item in 100% infil

    The print job is a 4.5mm thick plate (lid actually) that is 155x160mm (See attached stl). It will curl on the front right side of the print when printing infills of 50% or greater. Al though due to...

    What other info can I provide you that may be helpful? Sorry about that pic I tried to grab it before the extruder was out of the way. Good point in the moisture not being the issue did to the...
  18. Any layer smaller than this is ok. In fact by...

    Any layer smaller than this is ok. In fact by the time i got to the top layer of this (4th layer) it looked perfect. If it was an over-extrusion problem I would assume it would always occur no?
    ...
  19. Would you agree this is an infill issue? Pic included

    Basically I accidentally printed a fairly large area (160mm square) with 10% infill. I usually use 20% and never have pillowing but on this one I am. I increased it back to 20% and it still looked...

    So i did check tightness of all drive components, belt, etc. and all was well. I did clean the rods just for the sake of it. I reprinted the bottom 25mm at 50% scale and at 100% scale and it did it...
  22. You make a very valid point. I guess the issue...

    You make a very valid point. I guess the issue with making these changes and reprinting is that the print was a 17 hour print so it's not really feasible to make a change and reprint this particular...

    Win 10 but the server is running on a PI. I've never had an issue before and it buffers and checks all data so I cannot see that being the issue. I've printed quite few large items and never had...

    It's two separate stl files that did this. Both were larger boxes.. I don't use the SD card, i use repetier server/host which sends data directly. I use the repetier host embedded cura slicer. Not...

    The imperfection is on the right vertical wall. I did change the orientation for the second block to see if it would change anything (Printed the long end facing up instead of flat) and it didn't...
