I drank the Kool aid. After so much time building a corexy machine that can handle engineering filament (and running my mk3s) I... Ordered a P1S and AMS. If it's as good as it seems, the Prusa is going away and being replaced with a second P1S, too. And I'm selling the corexy project, probably as parts. It was fun, but I'm really tired of 3d printers being the hobby. The Prusa mostly Just Worked but only mostly. Tired of that, too. Even ordered Bambu filament with their silly RFID tags. I'll probably keep doing that too, the price is great with the subscription. Feels like I betrayed open source completely but I'm ready for it.

Well, it all boils down to whether your hobby is 3D printing or 3D printers, as somebody pointed out ITT.

Posted over in the tabletop thread too but my hobby today is apparently printers, because my resin printer is making a rectangle on the FEP instead of cones of calibration. Re-level and more bottom layer exposure, maybe.

My Voron of theseus seems to indicate my hobby is 3d printers. But by golly I want it to be 3d printing. Also building a 120C chamber temp beast (no more than 220mm^2 I think) when I can.

The AMS for my P1P just got here! I'm looking forward to setting it up after work. I'm probably not going to do much multi-color printing, but I can load it up with the colors I use most often to make it less of a pain to crank out some easy stuff. I might put this roll of gray PETG in there too. The idea is to use it as a support interface layer, but I guess PETG has some applications that are not coming to mind right now?

WhiteHowler posted:The AMS for my P1P just got here! I'm looking forward to setting it up after work. PETG is a good outdoor filament. Not brittle like PLA and still printable without an enclosure. I mostly just print ASA now, since the P1S makes it easy. For my AMS I usually have it as: 2 rolls of main filament, 1 roll of color, 1 roll of support or another color. Currently that is 2 rolls of ASA black, clear PETG, and HIPS. Clear petg bonds well with ASA.

After you start getting successful prints, drain and filter your vat after every test. I didn't, I just cleaned the vat after every test and one of the cones got left behind, ripping a hole through my fep and ruining an overnight print of a big rear end Warhammer figurine.

And that's not even as bad as it *could* get. A big enough chunk left behind and you'll hear a really gnarly crunching sound the instant your build plate goes to expose the first layer, then find out how fun the process is to replace your screen.

I'm back to doing a basic R_E_R_F just to get a baseline because this thing is being difficult. That said, I've got a pretty solid looking RERF at probably about...1.5? 2 @ 1.2s looks a skosh underexposed, and 3 @ 1.6 (the 3 and 4 time labels are mixed up in the original file) looks a bit over  Siraya themselves recommends 2s on this particular resin/machine combo, but that looks a little high.

WhiteHowler posted:I've had awful luck trying to print something tall with this Overture Silk PLA gold. Compared to other PLA and PLA+ I've used, it seems to have fairly poor bed adhesion (even when printing shorter things). i just accidentally posted the in a different 3d print thread instead of here; tldr: i also suck at printing silk pla. ... god i hate silk pla, why was i tempted by black friday sales i have Dremel 3D45, not perfect but pretty solid. the main complaints: 1. it overrides gcode temp/fan settings to whatever you set on the machine, so you can't do different temps per layer, and you have to set the filament temp on the printer. 2. it was built for their proprietary filament spools, so while you can use any filament, they don't fit in the filament compartment and you have to 3d print a solution and/or get an external spool holder. It effortlessly prints abs, normal pla, petg, tpu, even nylon. I am having the damndest time getting silk pla to work, mainly because it is so soft the filament driving gears (name?) grind it if there is ANY resistance. i have some bowden tube that goes through a 3dprinted filament door replacement and winds through the intended path, not perfect, but works every other time. For silk pla i have resorted to keeping the top open, putting my external spool holder/dryer on a box, and feeding it right to the print head. Even with this, my last print was going fine and then stopped extruding with 5 % left to go, so now I am also manually unspooling 5 loops every 30 minutes on try 2. (very small prints taking 2 hours or less have worked fine). I have also increased the extruder temp 15 degrees and am cursing constantly, which seems to help. any other tips? i have 3 different brands of silk pla because i am a moron; overture and two rando amazon sellers, and they each have issues, although the overture seems the best quality. I searched the thread and found the temperature advice and "silk pla can be a pain to print with", so i'm hoping one of you has discovered 1 cool tip to save my sanity.

The Aphasian posted:1. it overrides gcode temp/fan settings to whatever you set on the machine, so you can't do different temps per layer, and you have to set the filament temp on the printer. OMG this is it, this is the Cricut machine I speculated about! Do the filament spools have some sort of passive electronics on them to identify their temperature to the machine, or is that maybe the 2025 model?

cruft posted:OMG this is it, this is the Cricut machine I speculated about! Do the filament spools have some sort of passive electronics on them to identify their temperature to the machine, or is that maybe the 2025 model? mine is 4/5 (?) years old now. per my fuzzy memory, the filament spools have RFID tags that automatically set the temp/fan settings to ideal. I bought dremel-branded spools when i purchased it, but never again. I was going to keep them to rewind new filament onto them to get the benefits of a spool that fits and autosettings, but i didn't and now it's years later. Everytime I load a spool i don't use the "change filament" menu option, because it inevitablly spends 60 seconds searching for an RFID, fails, and then warns me i will break my machine by doing things Dremel doesn't approve of. Instead I use a "tools" menu that lets you preheat the bed and/or extruder and "purge" filament once it gets to temp. I just change the temp/fan settings manually in a different menu if i'm changing material. I should point out the extruder assembly is very annoying to work on, and needs to be basically completely disassembled to do anything. Dremel has shifted support to some third party (3pitech.com) and doesn't seem to be selling spare (often proprietary) parts anymore, so once it kicks I'll probably buy a more upgrade/maintenance friendly model. It is fairly bulletproof most of the time (except silk pla); I got it on sale when enclosed printers were less common, at least at my price point that I was aware of, and the autoleveling and some other "beginner" features made me more comfortable dipping my toes into a new hobby.

   I had to up the exposure to 2.5, presumably because it's old resin. Got a new bottle coming to try at the 'suggested' values.

Had some unique items i wanted to try my hand on etsy with. My personal etsy account has been in place since 2015. Did the set up shop thing, made a initial listing, verified my account, added my initial card (and have the pending .20 charge). And BAM. my site is suspended right out of the gate. I get an email asking me to verify my site info via google forms. The page there says that new shop openings have been suspended for my country. Huh? File an appeal, and most questions are asking you basically "Do you promise to do better next time?" and "How will you change next time?" My responses consisted of "I literally had a shop for a nanosecond and was suspended. I could not have violated anything if i was never actually online" Appeal: Denied in < 1 min. Reason: Esty does not allow members in India to open new shops. All India based shops paused. Btw. Decision is final. No way to appeal again. So let it be written, so let it be done. I am in good old Pennsylvania, USA by the way. As listed in all my submitted forms and addresses. Etsy is horribly broken. I take this as a sign edit: i also can't delete my shop, or my account unless i pay that .20 as well. That is a hill i will die on Roundboy fucked around with this message at 06:12 on Dec 6, 2023 |

Sounds frustrating. Might be worth trying to connect to a human via phone even if it takes a while. Some problems just fall through the cracks. I had something similar with eBay once. Total bs thing that went away in ten seconds after I talked to someone. Etsy isn't eBay but it's probably worth a shot. Another option is look up their dispute resolution stuff in the ToS. There might be something in there you can use.

Not sure if this is a stupid idea, but has anyone here worked with a textured flex plate on a resin printer before? I feel like it might replicate the same sort of textured surface the newer printers have on their bed, but maybe the texture is too intense to work at lower layer heights. I have some spare flex plates around that Im looking at "texturing" with a laser engraver. Put some of my logos etc on it so I can brand small bases and whatnot that I print flat on the base.

Printed out this case shell, only a 5ish hour print but got all these dots on the walls. Moisture issue? The spool has been in my AMS the whole time. Overtemp from closed doors? I figured it wasn’t too long of a print so I left them closed. It’s BambuLabs matte PLA.
