I use clear Gorilla glue (the polyurethane stuff) for bonding large surface areas, but for almost everything else I use Starbond CA glues. They've got a few different grades from water thin to gap-filling thick  that have done me pretty well for piecing together various printed... things.I also keep a little squeezy bottle of acetone right next to me for when I inevitably glue myself to whatever I'm working on.

If you can still feel your fingertips when you're done, did you even really use superglue?

I have a VCore 3.1 500, you know the most annoying thing about big printers? There aren't as many models floating around to make use of that space. You would not be surprised at how few things there are on Printables that are impossible to print on any Prusa. I would love to try printing an entire chair with it, and I plan to. But I do kind of have to learn CAD software and design it from scratch. Not that I'm really complaining. V Cores are like Vorons in that you only get one if you want to tinker more than you want to print.

This is exactly why he's a problem. He's wildly inconsistent. You can't ~trust~ anything he publishes. If you need a list of reasons, I can probaly get you 10 or 20. But here is my last post on it.

I’ve printed a bunch of stuff in ASA, big flat things that should warp like crazy, with no enclosure and I only ever had problems when I left a bunch of doors open and had cold outside air blowing over it the whole print.

I mean, it SHOULD be fine. Anything that has a preset in the loading options I assume has at least been tested. So far, it's coming out great.

 Fresh from the printer, very minimal processing. Printed the black Sunday night and the orange last night after the filament showed up from Amazon (eSun PLA+ orange). Haven't used the .25mm nozzle before, so that was interesting on the orange. Used tree supports on the bodies, and brims on the orange, but no supports on the orange. The back on the 100% sized pumpkin broke off a bit, so that's reprinting. Otherwise, they came out pretty well. 25% infill on the cat bodies was probably too much, they are surprisingly heavy. ilkhan fucked around with this message at 17:43 on Oct 25, 2023 |

Ok, I like this stuff. Pretty nice how it turned out. It also blows me away how much imperfections get picked up by cameras vs our eyes. None of the ripples you can see in the pic are visible to the naked eye under regular lighting.

       So I have a friend trying to print some statue he got the STL file for, but it all hosed up. He did not print it himself and does not have access to a printer now. He's based in Michigan, about halfway between Grand Rapids and Lansing and had basically given the file to his BiL to print, who printed it as a SOLID block using a resin printer, which my friend ate all the cost for. BiL is.... a character. Doesn't take criticism, has some personality issues, etc, so he can't actually go back to the guy and say "hey this is all hosed up and looks bad." The mat underneath is in centimeters, to give a sense of scale. It big. Anyone in that area able to help him out? I can pass along contact info. Thanks!

The kicker is his BiL made it out like he was cutting him a deal because my friend only had to pay for the print himself, and then the jug of resin that was used. Which is... Woof.

Well it seems like his options are to talk with words to his moron brother OR shell out twice for the same project. I dunno what else the internet can do for him at this stage.

Is there anything I can do to improve this guy on my ender 3? I'm having some skipping issues, and I'm wondering if it's just this thing being iffy. It's running a dragonfly bms and a .6 nozzle so I can't imagine flow is the issue. Printing at 210 degrees at 100mm/s on klipper so maybe thats the issue? Maybe the Bowden setup?

Is the hobbed drive wheel clean? If it’s slipped in the past, the teeth can get clogged, which leads to more slippage, etc.

On a whim I took a stab at a mandolorian helmet off maker world, if only to use that as a baseline for my head and give this one to the kids One was billed as 120% big size, printed all at once on the bambu plate, and was properly supported and it came out good drat amazing Sure it needs some sanding and finish, but not much on the putter surfaces. Also most notably I browsed this on my phone while bored on a meeting, and remotely sent it to my printer from work. 5/5 A+ would do again

w00tmonger posted:This may well be it. Is it ever worth replacing the drive wheel? Not sure if it wears down etc. I've seen like one worn drive wheel ever. So yeah, it can happen, but I've found it's very rare. Another thing to check is loosening the tension. It's possible to have too much pressure in the drive causing excessive friction there. In extreme cases it can also distort the filament causing interference along the bowden tube as well as in the hot end itself.

w00tmonger posted:Is there anything I can do to improve this guy on my ender 3? The problem isn't the extruder. But you've not provided enough information to REALLY Be sure. We need to know the layer height, and plastic being used. It's worth noting that the Dragonfly is only good for 20^3mm/s under ideal conditions. If you're printing at .5mm layer height, that's 30 cubic mm/s at 100mm/s linear speed. Aurium posted:Yeah, turn the heat up. This would be my first answer. If it's a ~very well used~ ender, you could be in the middle of bowden failure.. so if you have spare tubing, install that.
