I'm looking to splice my heater cartridge (http://e3d-online.com/Electrical/Components/Heater-Cartridge-12v-25w) with some quick connect JST SM connectors (http://www.adafruit.com/products/318).

I want to bump this thread up because I've been having layer delamination issues lately on a particular piece im trying to print.

I think it's ultimately a geometry issue, but I noticed...

UPDATE: I think it may be a hotend temperature issue now...

I was able to get a hold of some old Makerfarm PLA scraps I didn't use. I heat the hotend up to 265 C, and I couldn't push the filament...

That's the one thing I haven't tried since I don't have another spool of filament right now. I may have some old scraps though, so I'll definitely try that as soon as I can. Even so, when I...

UPDATE: I think it may be a hotend temperature issue now. See post #4.

I know this seems like a common and easy issue to address, I thought so too, but I'm all out of ideas and need help from the...

I'm using Slic3r 1.2.5 (experimental) for my slicing.

Like the title says, at 0.2mm layer height, I get perfect bridging using a number of different speeds (35, 60, 80, 100 mm/s).

After every print, I have to either move the micro-stepping screw up or down (if i move it up for a print, I have to move it down for the next print,...

Thanks for the awesome replies RobH2 and AbuMaia, i really appreciate the help. Just reducing the temperature has eliminated a bunch of the oozing (and it's good to know what the phenomenon is...

I also have another question regarding calibration that I couldn't fit in the title. Are the firmware and Slic3r settings calibrated "out-of-the-box" when kits are purchased from Makerfarm? Or...

Thanks for the replies. I tried using the Elmer's purple glue stick, and it helped, but there is still a decent bit of warping in the corners. I'm designing an enclosure now, so I guess the next...

I'm having trouble getting ABS prints to stick on my 10" bed. I'm trying to print a test cube with sides of ~4 in. First layer goes down nice, really smooth and squished, but then about halfway...

Thanks for the replies everyone! Prints are sticking to bed now!

Hi there

I've recently purchased and completed building the Prusa i3v 10". It's my first personal 3D printer, and I love everything about it so far.

I have a couple questions:
1) When...
