I tend to use my .75 mm nozzle to make large items.. granted it does not looks as nice but if you design the part with the extrusion width in mind (.8mm) it can work really well. With .5mm layer...
yeah Trolley, think Harry Potter.. cart with wheels, least that is what I imagined as a Yank!
TPU needs a good filament drive that has no place for the filament to go but into the hot end, direct drive does not make it so..
you should have a .5mm nozzle at the very smallest
You can not...
You might want to do a quick search of the Prusa forum.. would expect you will find a more exacting post with the problem and fix...
bad thermistor, hotend, or cabling.. Most likely thermistor is bad or wire almost broken.
On my MakeGear I use 235C and 70C for eSun and Overture PETG
Greg, where are you located? Any where near Philadelphia PA USA?
As you gain experience you will find it is best to keep the fabrication method limitations in mind when you are designing a part. Such as print orientations and how it will paly into part strength ....
Other than the one corner at 3.12 being a bit low, which could cause adhesion issues in that area, the rest look fairly good!
Another thing to check is to make sure you did not get abs with the...
a .1mm layer height would reduce the step height and using a slicer with ironing function would help on smoothing the top surface a little in this case (Prusaslicer 2.3 rc2 works very nicely for...
to be honest should be better printing more than one at a time.. try putting a line of them down the center of the bed and see what happens.. You do have the fan on 100% after the first layer...
Another thing that can cause issues is a bed that is not level and a Z offset that is incorrect and or incorrect extrusion multipier.
To check use the attached model assuming 3.5 mm nozzle and .4mm...
So.. what does the part look like.. does it have pointy corners? If so try and add a fillet to round the corner if you designed the part. What PLA are you using.. if it is the stuff MakerGrear gave...
Ok, no idea about your printer but here is what I do with my Makergrear m2
Had to replace the OEM extruder housing with one that had been modified for TPU open spaces were tightened up to keep the...
Look at the Prusa line.. there is NO plug and play, but Prusa is closest.
you will need supports.. things can not print in mid air.. And I would expect it not to print very well in a FFF printer, maybe a resin printer. I can not download the model at this time but will...
I never disguard any hardware that is useful, you never know when you will need it. Yes I am an old guy, I come from a time when there was dials on the telephone and a wire attaching it to the wall....
I have made flower pots with .75mm nozzle and .8mm walls , utilizing 2 process in S3D where the sides were created with vase mode. So no infill
depends on what you are fabricating. Most things I make need to be structurally strong so I don't do anything less than 25% and many things at 90 to 100% infill
Unlike CA I am a fan of quality ABS. It has certain properties that make it suited for certain parts just like all thing.. You would not want to use Steel to build a table (you can if you want) but...
Thanks for posting that, I have not kept up with the new features since I first tried the PS. If they get the supports as fancy as S3D I can make a full time move to PS. This feature you posted is...
For parts that are not structural and small it can be helpful, assuming you have the ability to design the part from scratch. I just made a gasket for a rear wiper shaft where it passes through the...
ABS works between 235 and 255C. On my particular printer, I find 235 works best for me, with the brands of ABS I have tired.
Good luck
it is all relative to the machine, nozzle and the material.. it is a science experiment. There is a setting for filament diameter which should be measured and average actual size input to the...
