06-26-2017, 07:00 PMThat acrylic on the stock bed bulges even with the slightest temperature rise. Eventually is cracks to allow venting. Then the whole magnet area...9 replies | 107 view(s)

06-26-2017, 06:59 PMThe heat that gets to the nozzle housing is not too bad. We can reprint a housing to do what we want. Getting a good solid part, now that is the...26 replies | 645 view(s)

06-25-2017, 09:44 AMI think increasing the fan speed and raising the z height with a slight pause would help. The problem with that is you would have to use math (if...26 replies | 645 view(s)

06-25-2017, 07:32 AMProblem is that the hot tip is paused while touching the end of the layer before continuing. This causes overhangs, although perfectly reasonable,...26 replies | 645 view(s)

06-25-2017, 05:13 AMI think what you are referring to is what Slic3r software calls z-hop. And it works very well.26 replies | 645 view(s)

06-25-2017, 04:26 AMIt really needs to do a Z-drop. The mystery is why 3D Builders version of the 3DS ABS slicer doesn't exhibit this problem. It doesn't overheat and...26 replies | 645 view(s)

06-25-2017, 02:08 AMM. I think there is an intended pause at the end of a layer. This is the blob-column at the start finish. It is also the reason for Marvin's loop...26 replies | 645 view(s)

06-24-2017, 05:46 AMThe hose in the cartridge case is the same. Just cut a length of it to restore your hot-end. Use a coat-hanger wire or a 2mm drill bit to seat...9 replies | 131 view(s)
