hm, i happened to open a 3MF that I'd saved in the latest Bambu Studio over in Orca Slicer, and it contains additional keys that line up with the X1E leak re chamber temperature, etc: also an air filter?

If you consider that a fail, I would heat gun or lighter it to try and clean up the strings before resorting to temp towers. It MIGHT fix it enough for your liking.

Well shoot, another beautiful stringy bowl. I’m going to have to learn retraction settings next. Also, alas, I don’t have a heat gun.

I'm printing the suspended hand in wires design from here https://makerworld.com/en/models/16464#profileId-15294 And my printer keeps pausing it because the spaghetti detection is firing lol.

What would cause the supports to like spaghetti out and not adhere at all from the get go, but if I let it go the first layer/adherence of the actual thing being 3D printed comes out great (except for where the supports are needed)?

What slicer, what kind of supports, what material are you printing, what material is your print bed, etc...

Using PLA slicing with Cura on the smooth side of a PEI sheet, normal line style supports. Planets seem to be in alignment like if I do a z-offset calibration print it comes out great, and if I print something without supports that's no problem.

Yeah, supports are also pretty sensitive to getting nudged or curled a bit, the moment they get nudged a bit and poke up the print head can just rip 'em off. When I print more complex stuff stuff I tend to use organic supports in OrcaSlicer with larger rims/bases + 2-3 walls, which makes them strong and robust as all hell, I've been burned on larger 'normal type' supports before, when they've been pretty big.

Alright so I'm rehabbing a stock Ender 3 Pro, and resolving issues one by one as I go. Currently trying to improve dimensional accuracy, because circles come out slightly out-of-round. I was dealing with some z-banding which was fixed by adjusting the eccentric nuts for the x-axis carriage. I've now realized that the nuts on the y-axis carriage were also way over-tightened and am printing another test. (The print head carriage was okay.) Probably this will help with the dimensional issues, but I'm wondering if anyone else has suggestions on things for me to check while I'm tinkering. I've checked that the frame is square, and I've tightened the belts. Haven't done e-steps yet because I'm waiting for an all-metal extruder and I'm swapping the board to a BTT SKR e3 v3, but I will do that once that's all installed. I'm mostly just trying to get the mechanical stuff ironed out first while I wait.

SubNat posted:Yeah, supports are also pretty sensitive to getting nudged or curled a bit, the moment they get nudged a bit and poke up the print head can just rip 'em off. Now that this seems to be working I'm definitely going to be playing around with different support styles, I agree about the normal ones, there's so many points where it seems like it can gently caress up or make cleaning it up a pain.

Going crazy. I'm trying to get good prints on my klippered kobra max, and I keep getting scrapping/collisions on top surfaces when printing/traveling etc. It'll print everything great, then start scrapping and knocking the print around when it starts filling in the top surfaces. Any idea what I should be looking at here? at a bit of a loss...

Fixed my Ender 3 problems by getting a Bambu X1C Whose cruel joke was it to ship the thing with a Benchy model that fails and blobs the nozzle every time? I thought I messed something up until I did a search on Reddit. Also does anyone have advice for reducing vibrations? I have it on a desk solidly fixed to the wall but it still shakes like crazy.

RE: reducing vibrations - go to Home Depot and get a paver that your printer can sit atop. Here's a CNC kitchen video with specific tests/recommendations: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y08v6PY_7ak

No joke I am going to purchase a new better printer next year. It's my big saving goal for my budget, because I want a multi-extruder so I can print stuff like this: https://cults3d.com/en/3d-model/various/kitsune-flexi-articulated-fox-with-nine-tails-print-in-place-no-supports I'll do the research next year as to which one precisely, but I am definitely over the beginner printer and want a better machine. e: lol it's funny now I see the faint wisping / stringiness on that kitsune. I'm becoming so hyper-sensitive to print quality.

Also I'd love to fix my Ender 3 problems by buying a nice new printer, but I already have two of these things (one gifted to me for free), they work, and I'm not printing enough stuff to warrant the upgrade over spending that money on other things. Plus I honestly still like tinkering with them.

StrixNebulosa posted:I would give so much to have that comparatively faint stringing right now Try something like this: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3518195 There's a bunch of things you can tweak, including cooling,retraction, extrusion, etc....but start with something simpler so that you can see what's actually going on. You should not have any stringing at all with PLA.

OBAMNA PHONE posted:Did you do the calibration after setup? Mine does not shake much on a similarly mounted countertop Yeah, twice. I have some memory foam mattress material and I went and got a paver so I’m going to try that setup. Maybe put a doily over it so it looks nicer.

handle posted:I saw you're using Inland PLA, my sweet spot with it appears to be about 195˚ C, for whatever reason. If you're comfortable dropping the temps a bit it's worth a shot with a temperature tower that goes that low. This might be the answer! Except that I forgot to toggle supports so I printed a kitty bowl with spaghetti instead of a face or a tail

For PLA, do I just let er rip and go for max fan speed after the initial layer? Couple 5015 blowers on a 0.6 volcano from anycubic. I know for petg etc you need to worry about fans and layer adhesion, but I'm not sure what I should be looking for to avoid it oozing all the time. Is the move really just do go with some crazy cht nozzle and a different hotend?

Someone asked me if I could print them custom leather stamps. I said let's find out together, and behold: I am shocked that not only did 0.175" of PLA survive me mashing it as hard as possible in my little desk vice, but also that the results not only look ok, but the layer lines look vaguely intentionally ornamental. This is gonna be a whole new fuckin thing now. I'm excited.

If you don't want the lines you could either print it with the stamping side down (no problem if the supports make the recessed surface all boogery) or hit it with a bit of Bondo and sand it smooth. I upgraded my Prusa Mini firmware to the alpha with input shaping and boy howdy does that thing fly now.
