I'm confused why people are using so many different methods to stick their prints down - just use Elmer's glue. I'm certainly not the only one using it, but it doesn't seem very common, and I don't...

I'm confused why people are using so many different methods to stick their prints down - just use Elmer's glue. I'm certainly not the only one using it, but it doesn't seem very common, and I don't...
I was looking for slightly higher print quality, less retraction/less jams, and also wanted to print flexible materials, which is much easier with a direct extruder.
Good news though! I figured...
Just printed another benchy with 2mm retraction @ 70mm/s. Also tightned the spring force on the extruder. Came out the same or slightly worse. Seems like the new extruder setup just doesn't work...
Ok, I can try increasing the retraction a bit - I'll try 2mm - and I'll try 70mm/s retraction speed. I had measured exactly 100mm when I extruded 100mm, but let me run through that again to make...
Here is a benchy a printed with my new titan setup - default settings except I used 1 mm retraction instead of 5, 40mm/sec, Simplify3D. Not very good - similar roughness to the bowl.
Here's the same bowl that I printed immediately before upgrading to the titan-aero (also upgraded the bed heater to keenovo at the same time. Same settings, except I had the retraction distance...
I recently upgraded my CR-10S from bowden to e3D Titan Area + Volcano. Seemed ok at first. Couple tiny test prints looked fine, but now I'm realizing everything I print, no matter what I setting I...
Well, just wanted to confirm, it was the heated bed melting my prints afterall - oops! The new heater must be getting slightly hotter than the old one at the same temp setting. 65 and 70 C were...
Oh I just scaled the normal one 50% in Simplify3D that's all.
Good news! I re-printed the same file, except I made it 50% in every direction this time since I'm impatient. Printed pretty good for being so small! The only other changes were adding an 8" desk...
I'm using a 0.4mm nozzle right now, and funny you mention that because when I was priming the nozzle, extruding into the air, I was thinking the same thing - it looked slightly wide. I wonder if the...
I was thinking maybe my nozzle temp is way higher than I think, but it looks like it's not. I kept lowering the temp until the titan aero started slowing down or making noise. Got down to 150 C! ...
I think the th3d "unified firmware" is popular amoung us CR-10 guys, and maybe some others. I don't know a lot about it, but I was thinking it's the most common. I'm actually using it on my CR-10S...
Thanks for the replay. I measured the distance between the gantry and bed (39.5mm), then raised it 50mm and re-measured (89.5mm), so I guess my Z-steps are ok. I attached a few pics above (partial...
CR-10S 300x300, e3d Titan Aero direct drive, Volcano, Keenovo bed, TH3D firmware, no part cooling fan (temporarily), 210 C nozzle, 65 C bed.
Just installed an Titan Aero. Seems very nice, but my...
