Thank you: I did not know that there were different kinds of nylon. Shows you how often I print with nylon! I will buy some 645 and try that.

I have had my FFCP for a while now. I have changed the hot ends over to the swiss something or other hot ends. They work just fine. I recently purchased a spool of Nylon Bridge filament and am having...
Thank you Jeff but I spoke to Tang regarding this part. They want $22US plus $25US for shipping from China. Not gonna happen. I'm looking for the correct heater block at a reasonable price.
I need the heater block for my machine. I have looked at Amazon and Ebay etc. but I find so many different ones so I am not sure which one I should get. Can you please suggest which one I should buy....
You are correct Mr. Aardvark. I was trying to use supports for the overhangs. that is when things went horribly wrong! I discovered that to use supports with ninja-flex, you have to use ninja-flex...
They look good. Nice and smooth.
I am not familiar with the Flexion Extruder but if it works, I say go for it. As for the glass, I don't put anything on it. Ninjaflex sticks really, really well to the bare glass. I also set the bed...
Mine seem to be doing well so far Wirly. I had been printing with a nozzle temp of 235 but was not getting good results. When I upped the temp to 240 and set the speed to 1800 (S3D), the prints...
The temps remain constant in the display. I did a feed rate calibration as per the sailfish manual and found that I have to adjust the extrusion multiplier to .95 to get the 20mm block level. Is...
Thanks Wirlybird. Both fans are running. If it was over extruding, why would printing as a single extruder with the same filament and the same temps work just fine with no jamming? This only happens...
I have been trying to print the traffic cone with dual extrusion and am having issues with the left extruder. I am using black PLA. The process will start fine but when it gets to about 10%, the...
Your right again Todd. This machine does great with PLA/ABS :-)
No Sebastian. I never got an email from you. I checked spam folder too.
I got it!!! It worked great. First off thank you to Sebastian and Todd for all your help and advice!
The FFCP CAN run ninjaflex very well but you will need to do a couple of modifications.

I am hoping that a solid material helps with support. My experience using dual extruders with ninja-flex has been nothing but a pile of stringy spaghetti. Everyone keeps telling me that S3D does a...
That is PERFECT Todd! Now, can you show me how to get that result using Ninjaflex? With Ninjaflex supports?
Wow Todd...This is fantastic. Practicing with just a corner would save a lot of time. Except, i don't know how to "slice the model down to just a corner". Is that also something S3D can do?
Actually, I spend some time researching and found that changing a few settings and speed corrected the gobs. Now i'm having a hell of a time getting the supports separated from the model. They should...
I am making this part from Ninjaflex. I am using S3D. As you can see in the pictures the area the supports are in show an uneven area with holes and lumps etc. This area is supposed to be 2 mm thick....
As you wish Sebastion......
Front looks great!! (2nd pic)
Back...not so much. I did this print with NO supports at all. The printer and ninja-flex actually almost did it.

Thanks Todd but the $150 is a lot if S3d doesn't print this any better than the free software. I can email you the file if you want to try it out on S3D. ;)
Forgot the answer you about semi-flex. I have that as well but the prints come out a little too stiff.
Maybe it's just me and I am doing something wrong. I am new to the FFCP, so with your...
This part will act as a seal and vibration damper. The rubber texture and flexibility of ninja seems to work well. I know ninja is not real rubber but does poly flex have the same characteristics?...
Yes...the corners mostly.
Maybe I need to reconsider S3d. I have a part I need to print out. It is printed with Ninja-Flex. I can't get a good print because it needs supports (I think). All I get is a stringy mess with dual...
