Thanks for sharing! Gonna try asap!

I wanted to try this with Kisslicer but there are a crapload of settings that I have no idea what to set them for the Cube 3. Can you tell me what settings to set for Cube 3?

I did get some decent prints out of kisslicer as well. However, it doesn't do retraction properly for what a cube 3 needs.

Heres a link to my ini files for kisslicer. https://1drv.ms/u/s!AtMbZIO7-msPgq1XWYUkn8s6rpwgOw

Just find your kisslicer directory and if you don't care about any of your current saved profiles then copy these over the ones you have there . If you don't want to lose your profiles you already have then just open each file in a text editor and copy everything inside and paste it at the end of your ini file of the same name.

I think I have my simplify3d settings where it does a pretty good print. I'm going to post a few comparison pictures tomorrow that compare against the cube print slicer.

Well so far I opened a STL and sliced with the above profile and when I run the preview, it's empty! :?

Is this normal?

Item is manifold.

Awesome! Thank you very much! I'm gonna try it after work.

Not sure if I missed something but it is backing the filament out instead of feeding it. Also does it only work on the left side? Is there a way to select which side?

So when you hit "prepare to print" and it goes to the preview it doesn't show anything? If that's the case then I don't think a profile affects that. Make sure build table, travel moves, and toolhead are selected in the preview screen.

I have only tried to make it work on the left hand side so far. I haven't had a ton of time to spend on this and was more concerned with figuring out settings to get decent prints.

As far as it going in reverse, I'm not sure what is causing that, make sure that cube 3 is selected in style, support, printer and material.
