Hi jfkansas, do you ship to the UK?

Yep sure do. It costs a little to do it but have sent several orders there in the past.

Hey guys, I'm new here. I just borrowed 2 QIDI printers from my school's lab for us to do some production on a project. I'm currently using eSun white ABS and am getting some bad bumps on the print. Is there any way to eliminate this? It's printing now at 235 C at the nozzle and 110 C on the bed. The school just ordered us some black Hatchbox ABS as well. I personally have a Robo 3D printer but it doesn't do so well with warping in large ABS prints. I'm also only using the makerbot software

Looks like you are extruding way too much plastic. Makerware software is kind of a PITA to change that but it is possible. You will have to find the JSON profile that you are using and up the feedstock number. Also make sure you have measured your filament and input that number.

Great, thanks! I'll try to find that

I'm definitely impressed by this printer and I think I'm going to sell my Robo R1+ and pick up the Quidi

I don't even have Makerware installed anymore so hard to help more. S3d is 100 times better and all those flow controls are directly exposed to the end user. The latest versions of Makerware 3 and up aren't recommended for use on Clones now either.

Remember if you find the feedstock number, raising it will decrease flow. S3d it is the opposite. a lower extrusion multiplier will extrude less plastic.
