I need Technical Help
I was attempting to use PVA in my printer and didn't know what heat to use. Long story short, it melted in the print head. I though everything was fine, I even printed from that head (left) extruder....
Anyone looking for a budget printer try the QIDI Tech. Awesome printer right out of the box. Over 250 hours with no jams or issues. The printer just works!!
Hey Todd if you want more of a hands off printer try the QIDI Tech. I had no 3D printing experience, pulled it out of the box, and have been printing trouble free ever since. I probably have over 250...
And your the reason I setup my printer like this. It just works.
I have a 1/4 in glass on top of the build plate with .05 mm heat sink tape under and no blue sticker. I found at only 110 I don't get the ABS to adhere will on the first or subsequent passes. So I...
Same here. I've been printing since I have received the machine and only in ABS. No issues with the print bed connector at all. Thanks for the warning though, just not sure its a big issue with this...
Good to know. Thank you sir!!
I just placed my order. I should have my scanner by the end of the week!!!! I was very disappointed with the Fuel3D and Scanify software. None of the scans would automatically align. Seems from...
Awesome to know. I'm looking to buy right now!!!!
Is everyone still happy with this scanner? Has anyone tried or used the Scanify 3D scanner? I think the software is key. I did not have very good luck with the Fuel3D software. The auto stitch did...
Instead of clips. I just got this. Its was suggested from another member here and works great!!!!! 100mmx100mmx0.5mm GPU CPU Heatsink Cooling Thermal Conductive Silicone Pad Tool What I did is cut...
Ok man now i'm really Jelly!!!! I've been looking at Solidworks since last year. I can't get past the price. The software seems second to none. I went down to talk to a couple of sales reps but I...
That's the thing with Blender. I'm just learning. The interface sucks for 3D printing. I am not looking for free. I'm looking for ease of use / learning. It seems Fusion 360 is more user friendly but...
That is awesome man! I have to ask you though, did you get the QIDI before you got the makerbot replicator 2X or after? Reason I ask is if the Makerbot is junk, the QIDI was an exact copy, why would...
What do you use it for at work? You designing something?
Gotya!!! So wouldn't it be good to cover the heated build plate completely with this stuff? That way the glass would be level and completely transferring the heat evenly?
What will that do for me? So you took 1 and cut 4 pieces? Then put the 4 pieces on each corner of the glass? What would that accomplish? I'm sorry i'm new at this. Thanks.
Anyone have a glass plate setup on their QIDI Tech that I can see pictures of? Also how did you fasten it to the heated build plate? I ordered this already. http://www.ebay.com/itm/331831548659 which...
Awesome write up by the way!! Thank you! I figured it was a lube issue as there is a video / instructions on the SD card. Just no where near as detail and if I recall it only shows 3 & 1 oil on the...
Can you explain how you have your glass setup? How do you have it fastened to the original build plate? I like the idea of just spraying the glass with hair spray and having the model pop off when...
Mine is at 39 hours 10 min with 165.93 filament Trip
Is everyone removing their build plate every time you print? I've been using the scraper to dig and pry off my model but I'm concerned I might be getting to rough and bend something. It seems like a...
Its a great printer. I was on the fence to. I personally put some wd40 on the rods and the noise pretty much stopped. I've been printing the shit out of my machine. I've probably got about 8 prints...
I'm having the same issue with the acrylic top piece as well. It bows inward and catches on the feed tubes. I printed like 2 test files and a couple of things I downloaded. I created this cylinder...
