Why not just buy a 3d printing pen, a small roll of TPU and try it on the timing belt yourself...

For all intents and purpose NO. Could you mount the belt to the build plate so it is flat, then measure the offset need to apply the first layer to the belt backing surface, yes.. would it stick,...

onshape.com is fully functional software and is free but your models are open to anyone with an account.. If you pay a fee your stuff is private.

Yes, this forum is the worst

If I had to guess the nozzle is too close to the bad.. Starting Z offset need to be increased, however that is done on this particular printer I do not know. However, looks like the sides are ok,...

your sensor need air flow.. you may want send that one back and grab this one.. When I wanted a sensor for my indoor hydroponics tent I considered an enclosure but opted for the simplicity of this...

Take a look at at onshape.com. Free but anything you make is available to other users to use. It is all online so only storage needed is to download the stl file. It is a full blown CAD system and...

3D printing is not injection molding, if you want a smooth surface then there will always be post processing.. sanding, filling, painting.. Unlike molding you are adding a single string at a time, on...

50C is standard for the hot end fan, no need for it to be on sooner.. I don't turn mine on until 60C as my enclosure can be 50C.. The fan it to keep the filament cool above the heat break.. has...

Jack, you can have items made online, modeled and printed with the finished part returned to you.
What types are parts are you making and if they are just existing parts with known measurements that...

No, I have never printed PETG over 235C. If the PETG you have requires higher temp, get a different brand..

what are the specs of the part that would require the CF, will 910 nylon or ABS do in pace of the composite? I have only used CF once and it was very inclined to warp compared to the 910, but it...

Nylon needs to be dried over night and placed in the printer enclosure right from the dehydrator, assuming you have your printer in an enclosure. I personally never change filaments types without...

Not enough info, so will list thing that will cause failures.. only guess what you mean buy curling.. assuming the corners peel up?

So uneven bed surface, not that the corners are not level but...

If it's finicky or awkward I know that I won't have enough time or patience.

It is and it is and don't bother as it takes a lot of time to be proficient. Started in 2018 but now can sit down,...

There is a makergear facebook group, you may want to join that as it is way more active than this forum or MGs forum https://www.facebook.com/groups/makergear

I have attached 3 more models one for .2mm layer .25 and 3mm layer height. These are single layers to check starting height and extrusion multiplier. Once you get a good 2 walled square print the...

I have attached a cal square. set your extrusion width to .4 if you are using .35 nozzle and print this with the same settings you are using on your model. Using a digital caliper measure the...

I never use PLA, so can not comment on the filament. Also don't use the new version of S3d so could be that buggy software as it has many problems if you look at their forum. I will assume you are...

bigger nozzle .5mm or larger, slow speed 8-10mms, No retraction, gravity feed with bearings spool support so filament will pull really easy. Adjust extruder tension while printing to get the best...

ABS, PETG, Nylon.. anything but PLA.. PLA goes limp at about 110F. Do a google search on 3d filament types and read the pros and cons of each material .

use a digital caliper to measure the diameter of the filament in several placed around it's circumference every couple of feet. Take the average diameter, I will take a wild guess that it is about...

I try and eliminate the need for supports at all cost even if it mean multiple parts. I also use a lot of ABS as you can chemically weld ABS.
If supports are used, then you will need to learn...

Yup.. supports suck and that's life with additive fabrication. The supports are part of the the process that is an art form. My suggestion is design the parts to not need supports..
Don't know...

Yes you can buy the pins.. I bought one at the same time as the BLtouch so I would have it.
