okay trying polymaker's clear polycarbonate.
Turns out my maximum extruder setting is 262c
the polycarbonate label states 255-280 and a bed heated to 80c.
left the bed at 60, can't be arsed to recalibrate. printing a carabiner. They're useful and long enough to test warp and stick and only take 10 minutes or so to print.
And it's off ! Didn't quite finish the first layer.
I think the problem is most likely the extruder temp. But I'll up the bed temp and try it again.
It's annoying as I've got a 200gm roll of this stuff and it would be nice to be able to use it.

Okay heated bed to 90c and recalibrated again.
And at 57% it's just popped off.
I will say that I do have my cooling fan on - and I'm not supposed to.
I really do need to fit an on/off switch.
I'll try the PC again after I have. But for the moment - it's a no go.
Likewise I can't try any nylon till I've fitted the switch.Last edited by curious aardvark; 04-04-2016 at 03:22 PM.
