I got my voron back up and running perfectly, and I have been cranking up speeds and accel and I'm shaking like a champ. I found a 2*2 80# concrete block, and plywood with foam core on it that will serve as the basis for my new base, and once I finish printing new parts for upgrades, I'm starting on multi material. That hueforge stuff looks too awesome

I finally fixed the issues with bad first layers on my Neptune 3, but goddamn it took me a long time to get there. The actual issue was two of the V-rollers on the bed had grooves worn into their rubber from over-tightening. Those grooves meant that there was always some degree of play in the bed, which then caused issues with the auto leveling. The auto leveling would be incorrect, cause it uses a strain gauge to press into the bed. But with the slight play in the bed, the strain gauge would always detect the bed to be lower than it actually was, by varying amounts. So in the end I disassembled the bed, replaced the V-rollers, very carefully tightened them, then started calibrating. And hey it worked. The auto leveling results show that my bed is flatter than it's ever been, with the worst point only being 0.09mm off.

Injuryprone posted:Does anyone know why the Elegoo Saturn 2 costs more than the Saturn 3? I suspect the regular prices for them, Anycubic, and Creality at least are completely meaningless/not particularly well curated because of how there's some "flash" sale or other major discount or whatever going on with them basically 24/7. I notice also that the Saturn 2 in particular won some best printer ever for last year award so maybe makers/factories/schools/whatever (it's that time of year) that are replacing or ordering a new fleet of printers and everyone bought lots of Saturn 2 at once. So I always took the standard price as a "here's what's reasonable for us to list it at to act like this is a Very Expensive Product so people think they're getting a deal even though we're fluctuating the price constantly based on the market" Neo Rasa fucked around with this message at 01:28 on Jun 26, 2023 |

There's really no comparing a Bambu to any budget bed slinger. It's a wholly different class of machine, and they seem almost too good to be true until you actually watch one run in person. I bought a second AMS for my P1P just this morning, and although I probably shouldn't, I might end up buying another P1P at that sale price before the day is out.

What is the slicing/printing workflow like for the P1P/X1C? Does it rely on any cloud services? I believe I read it doesn't work with octoprint but that's probably a very small price to pay.

Tremors posted:What is the slicing/printing workflow like for the P1P/X1C? Does it rely on any cloud services? I believe I read it doesn't work with octoprint but that's probably a very small price to pay. You use Bambu Slicer or Orca Slicer to slice locally on your pc, it's a fork of Prusaslicer, so other than some UI changes a lot will be familiar if you're used to PS. The default behavior is that sliced models go from your pc, to the cloud, to the printer, but you can kick the printer over to 'lan' mode where it'll behave similar to an Octoprint equivalent and you just chuck jobs at it directly. Or you can transfer stuff to it with a microSD card, too. But lan mode is a decent middle ground if you just want to avoid them having your gcode at any step of the way. It doesn't support Octoprint but it's got stuff like internal cam and network file transfer built in. (You can use Bambu/Orca slicer on pc to check on it and send it commands, or do so with the app on your phone.) Weirdly enough, despite being a network-enabled printer by default, it does not have an ethernet port. The workflow is pretty much. Slap model into slicer, tweak, press print, wait a few seconds for it to transfer to the printer. You get the option of just transferring the print, or printing directly. (In case you have something you have something you print often and want it saved to the sdcard.) The flow is basically the same as when I used Fluidd/probably similar to Octoprint, other than not having a raspberry pi that can turn the printer on when jobs get queued up.

Someone wrote an effortpost about what it takes to make a p1p capable of abs, etc printing Enclosure Hotend? ?? I think it was cheaper in parts then the x1c and even more so now with the discount and the fact they include the camera now. I don't care about the local display. This is really, really tempting

If it means anything, IIRC you HAVE to use Creality Cloud if you want to more easily send stuff to it, some people have a very understandable ethical issue with that due to how Creality openly allows a lot of art theft/etc. on it.

Also, I think the creality L200-h model is on sale for a little over 100 bucks rn. It might fit your use case, and you can use any slicer afaik. I use chitubox on mine bc I hate myself.

Oh yeah especially with the 4th of July this week just buy one off their website. I've been using Cura but see so much good stuff about Prusa Slicer and just looking at it now it seems rad but I am an absolute loving moron, is it not possible to send something from Prusa Slicer to your printer via a USB cable?

I doubt it, but, does anyone else in this thread have a Neptune3 Max, and do you have a camera on it? I can't figure out any good place to attach a camera arm to the frame such that I can actually see the bed. I'm thinking I might need to get a wide angle lens or just set up a tripod on the other side of the room or something. For manually monitoring prints I've been using the webcam stream from a different printer that's sitting 4 feet away, but that's far from ideal, especially if I'm trying to run Spaghetti Detective or some such

Suggestions where to start troubleshooting clogs on an Ender 3 Pro with ABS? My desktop bit the dust a few weeks ago so have had to reinstall Cura on my laptop, so I may have lost some settings. I am also using a different (but brand new) roll of ABS filament. It seems happy to print the brim but have come down twice now to find it skywriting nothing. I used one of those needle things to try and clear the nozzle, but although it got a bit further the second time, had the same thing happen. I use a bed temp of 110C and a nozzle temp of 240C, I think on the advice from someone in here. Used to work fine. It's the same .4mm nozzle I've been using for months.

Enclosure? Depending on the filament 240 could be low. Is there part of the model still on the bed or is there nothing below the nozzle at all?

ilkhan posted:Enclosure? Oops, should have mentioned, it's in an IKEA LACK enclosure that's I've printed lots of ABS with previously on the same printer. I'll try bumping the nozzle temp up - now that you mention it I may have been using a higher temp in the past. I haven't seen it fail in person, but it'll do the brim/start the print, then seems to clog shortly thereafter. When I come down it's dancing around a few mm's above the bit it did manage to print, doing nothing.

Does the Ender 3 pro have an all metal hotend? It's possible that if you're using a stock ender 3 hotend that the ptfe tube is degrading in the nozzle due to the higher temp printing. The basic hotend has the PTFE go all the way down and touch the inside of the nozzle, where an all metal one has it stop at the top of the heatbreak/tube. You could try changing the nozzle and redoing the tube but also maybe switch to an all metal hotend. I got a generic one a little while back for $20 or something and it's been pretty solid, similar performance to the stock hotend but higher temp capacity and less finnicky with the nozzle and tube part when replacing nozzles.

Got it heating up for another run at it, gonna try 250 on the hotend. It makes sense that if 240 was a marginal temp for this filament, as soon as the nozzle started getting away from the heated bed it might cool a bit, which could cause a clog. edit: nope, worse! not even printing the brim now...

That does ring a bell about the tubing, I replaced the hotend a while back (snapped a nozzle off) with this one, which says "all metal" in the description. I forgot to add that I'm moving overseas in a couple weeks so throwing new parts at it is a no-go. Sold all my extra filament on marketplace yesterday, hoping to run off a few things before I sell it as I don't think I'll have space for a 3D printer in the new digs for some time.
