MY aluminium plate sits on top of the original printbed - which is not even close to being level.
lol the psu was second hand - I just pulled one from a dead pc.
Anyway that's all changed and working. And wow doesn't the ductfan make a difference !
Here's the lastest marvin. printed at 0.2 and 0% infill. Hollow :-)
So not only was the left one printed faster, it was on it's own.
Brilliant :-)
Hollow sphere currently about halfway through. And looking pretty good :-)
Okay spot the difference :-)
I can print ping pong balls ;-)
Unbelievable difference - I am so glad I talked you into getting a flashforge.

Cool stuff man! I need to start printing more hollow models too, the difference in quality is huge at times and I don't need the strength that the infill give me.
The only thing I see that you could improve on is your first few layers; do you heat the bed while printing? If not; you could try printing a larger 'brim' for the first 5 layers, just to give your layers some time to cool down. Or simply print an object next to it that's only 0.5mm high.
Haha, I thought exactly the same thing about those ping-pong balls!
I am the one that's happy being talked into a Flashforge; the options to mod these things is great and for the cost they have a very good quality (aka great bang-for-your-buck!)
Please explain to me how to...
