I'm no expert myself, but even the best of those looks a little stringy. It seems like an extrusion rate or z-calibration issue; either way the printer needs to smoosh each layer down onto the one...

I recognize that sound. Not sure what your entire feed system looks like, but usually the filament bends around a little between the roll and the hotend. That causes the occasional clicking or...
Oh, man... you're braver than I. Sometimes I wear a surplus gas mask while I work with chemicals like that. Impressive results, though; I've mostly been smoothing my prints with repeated applications...
I suspect that this is slic3r's fault; I just wish I could tell you how to fix it. My printer was able to put out the pre-loaded sample Gcode without any trouble, but as soon as I generated my own...
Nope! I run my entire software suite offline most of the time.
I also cast my vote for Simplify3d. It's extremely reliable and the preview and render features are well worth the price tag. That said, if you're not up for the expenditure, I was able to get some...
Woah, woah. Did I read that correctly? 0.3mm maximum layer height? Everything I'm reading about this one scares me a little. I have yet to see someone say that they bought one, calibrated it, and got...
+1 to Bassna's technique. I'm doing lifesize helmets that way. I use a butane hot knife and some epoxy putty to fill any seams, then lightly sand and clearcoat the whole piece. An acetone vapor...
AutoDesk Meshmixer is free and worth playing with. The RobustSmooth and MakeSolid tools tend to solve those Boolean issues for me.
As annoying as it would be, you should try to arrange to be there for the whole print. I sat there for three hours messing with cad software before I was finally there to witness the issue. If it's...
Okay, it's definitely interrupted filament feed. I had this problem the other day and it turned out to be dust clogging my extruded nozzle; canned air did the trick. That said, it sounds like you've...
Hello, all.
I've been using this trick with my MakerGear M2 for a while and haven't seen any reference to it online yet, so I thought I'd share and see if anyone else has tried it. I'm not sure...
Hello, all!
I'm currently working on a Warlock and Hunter cosplay for an upcoming convention here in Alabama. I'll be going as the Warlock, and my friend will be the Hunter. I've been making WIP...
