So my first print is a small adaptor bracket I made in openscad. 48% not looking too bad.
many many thanks for your settings and tips pages.
Is there any way to get the ff to work with any other host software ? The replicator software just seems clunky and not exactly user friendly.
Or failing that - how can I get the gcode files generated by cura to work with the replicator software.
Cura slices about 100 times faster than skeinforge (and i wish that was an exaggeration: cura on ls elephant - about 30 seconds, skeinforge 20 minutes to hit layer 57 !) and has a lot more options and settings all round.
And is it possible to make the gcode text in replicator bigger - it's practically microscopic !
Cheers :-)
