    Print temperature

    I made a Gcode file (attached) It is just a cylinder, 50 mm high print temperature 220 to start then increasing by 1 degree every 15 layers so ends up at 235 (ish).

    I expected to see a change in the appearance of the cylinder but for the whole height it looks the same even under a microscope.

    I think I should tried 235 to 250 maybe. Anyone else fancy trying it with ABS to see if it shows the best temperature for that particular filament, that is what I was trying achieve.

    If you do try it you will have to edit the Gcode for your bed temperature, it is currently set to 55 so will need increasing for ABS. In fact you should check all of the start gcode to make sure it's not going to do anything to your printer that you don't want.

    I tried uploading as gcode and as text but it only works as a zip file, sorry about that. I have no idea why the board won't allow text files as attachments.
