    A few months, but I don't know if it is under warranty.
  3. Extruder went from screaming during extruding / retracting to dead

    Recently I noticed a high pitched whine coming from my extruder gear when the printer was running. I asked family and friends who work with machines and they said it seems like a tension /...

    Cura was set to all defaults with the one on the left. Didn't wana touch it when it first arrived. What would be the best way to fix a Z compensation issue?

    Ran a few test prints under more default settings to see if any tampering with settings had caused these issues. Can say none of the settings are causing the adhesion problem, though after a few tess...

    The ender 3 has a heated bed, tends to run at 60C standard, so the adhesive may not be needed for every single print. Looking around I've noticed the Lokbuild beds don't seem to sell at the ender's...

    Yup..looks like the issue is the print bed's surface has gotten an uneven texture (Seems to be from plastic melting to the bed itself) and that's causing the issue. Thanks for recommending the new...

    Noticing my prints are having a weird issue where the top right corner begins bending up off the bed as it goes. Bed runs at 60C but given the added 10C to the nozzle, should I do the same to the bed...

    Ah- Umm...*Checks settings*

    Huh, you can in Cura. I will give that a try... Thank you.

    Sounds about right, so that means I can't go over 70 mm/s retraction or it will start clunking again. Trying to set it between 2-5 retraction distance but no effect. Only other setting I can think of...

    Sorry I've been so quiet, was trying out some different print settings before I posted again. On that note, managed to fix the unsettling thudding by setting my print temperature to 215C but still...

    Only seems to have happened when I upped the retraction distance and speed, do you think it went too far back and might have caused some stripping issue? I also noticed on the spool that the...

    Starting to hear the occasional thud when my printer is laying down the first and second layers, is that anything to be deeply concerned about or might it be from setting the retraction settings to...

    I'll try varying the retractions from 2-4, speed from 40-100 (though Cura's text box turns yellow when I go above 70, suppose figuring out if that's genuine is for testing). Good to know I may not...

    Set distance to 2mm, speed to 70mm/s still having the issue. Think it might just be that Cura can't set up this print properly? If so, might just bite the bullet and get Simply3D while wallet still...

    Crap! Sorry....

    Not sure which settings you want, so I'll list everything the sliver offers

    I have been using Ultimaker Cura since it came on the SD card that came with the printer. Is there a better slicer to work with?

    Print at 60 mm/s as default

    Here's an image of what I'm trying...
