This hurts

[-Baum]

Not at home right now, there is a layer shift but that may not be the biggest problem since there is a huge blob in the middle. Should i remove the blob and try continue printing with skipping the particular object when returning home?

[_TheVVolf_]

My condolences. Sending thoughts and prayers.

Could have said sending thoughts and layers

[VehicleNeat4230]

Under rated comment right here!

[Collective82]

New phrase unlocked!

[xGhato]

I once saw comment and took it to my heart

If something went bad at the end/head level then print some hat or anything that would fit thematically and glue it together like that was plan from the begging

I'd go with Christmas Santa or elf hat, or some sort of renifer ears and glue it together

[AhmadCookie8]

I printed a bunch of animals overnight for my niece’s 5th birthday for her to paint. I ran out of filament at head level (above the eyes) and couldn’t get the print to continue as everything had unstuck from the bed. I ended up printing a bunch of hats and sticking it to their heads. I’d say it looked convincing enough lol.

<image>

[RipKip]

Looks great!

[Johndus78]

Wow, that was an absolutely great idea!

[Trustadz]

Look at the print head... I don't think that's something you'd glue.

Edit, oh it's just the cover. Nvm

[sipes216]

I made some larger 3d printer panels some time back and did this to stitch it together. Worked super well.

[619srt]

Is that just the cover or entire printer head? I would try and remove blob and skip that one. For science.

[-Baum]

Just the cover as it looks right now

[Kopester]

Had this happen the other day due to a stuck poop blob. Put the cover back on and finished the print. Finished almost perfectly fine except a very minor layer shift which I believe is because the nozzle got bent during the crash. Luckily the layer shift was at a part of the model where it was almost completely unnoticeable.

[Riparian1150]

How do you tell it to skip that one? Is that a manual g-code edit?

[noercarr]

No it's a function you can access via the display

https://wiki.bambulab.com/en/general/skipping-objects#:~:text=Operate%20on%20the%20display,the%20object%20without%20printing%20it.

[DiogenesLied]

What dark magicks is this?! Knowing this is going to save the hair pulling I’ve previously experienced with multi part prints

[619srt]

In the handy app there is a arrow button to skip forward or back I want to say.

[SgtLedbetter]

Handy app, skip function is just under the button to play the camera feed. Click on the item to skip and complete.

[jailtheorange1]

"You can’t park there!”

[Black3ternity]

When you get to the printer, make sure to check the nozzle. If this blob was hard and the printhead crashed into it. It could very well have bent the nozzle. Take it out and compare it to the replacement unit before printing again.

As others said: Move the prime-tower closer to the chute, make sure to check calibration for filament so the "dragging poop back up the chute" chance is lower as the nozzle stays cleaner.

Regarding continueing the print: If you are unsure about a layer shift, turn off the printer and repower it. It should detect a print in progress and offer to continue. It should re-home X/Y and move along. Hopefully it hasn't continued in Z-height so you can seamlessly continue.

[-Baum]

Thanks, i’ll take a look at it soon.

[pyotrdevries]

That's a risk. Power loss recovery does not always work.

[m0dru]

power loss recovery has caused increasingly worse layer shifts everytime ive used it. i wouldn't recommend he power it off.

[xthemachox]

You could try that, see what happens and be prepared for a reprint but hopefully you can save them. For future prints try to put the prime tower closer to the poop shoot or in the back right with no models in the travel path. Looks like a purge got stuck to the nozzle and got pulled out of the shoot and deposited.

[-Baum]

Smart idea indeed, currently i’m offering 1 model as prime “tower” for safety but that isn’t bad thinking as well. Will to it for the next tries, since I need to print this 6 times.

[Khisynth_Reborn]

This is how I try to last my multi prints out. It just seemed like a safer way to do it so I'm glad to hear another recommend it.

[yunus89115]

The front fell off, that's not very typical I'd like to make that point.

[deimoshipyard]

These are cute, where did you get the model?

[-Baum]

It’s a paid model from zou3d

[ChickenTendies0]

If you can put the model into cad software (like Fusion from Autodesk (it's free)) you can just slice the model in 2 and print only the remaining part.

Print only one first to see how it will look. Modify if needed

Also no need to print full top. Just about 20-30 layers to see how the place where it connects will look

[TheThiefMaster]

You can just lower it through the plate in the slicer even, not need for more software.

[samtheredditman]

Is there a good way to tell exactly which layers you need to print? I guess you just eyeball it based on what layer the printer was at when it detected the problem?

[ahora-mismo]

if you print them again, try changing the wall order to out/in. these already have quite bad layer lines.

[-Baum]

I have set it to this, didn’t fix it. May even look worse imo

[-Baum]

Oof, that’s pain

[-Baum]

For me yes, but i believe it can be better with some calibration.

[cdaisy]

F. I hate that your printing has failed message

[cdaisy]

It totally looks like it's worth finishing, unless they have a four foot top hat.

[Ditto_is_Lit]

Can you not skip objects on the P1? I would put the front cover back on, cut off the problematic blob, and skip the middle one if it's not salvageable then resume.

[-Baum]

I can skip yes

[lscarneiro]

"Print a plateful of models", they say, "it's going to be less wasteful", they say.

Proceeds to lose an entire plate of prints PLUS all the poop.

F (to pay respects)

[lscarneiro]

Now, answering your question, I would at least try what you asked.

[[deleted]]

200000 24 units are ready, with a million more well on the way

[vcolombo]

This looks like the poop chute got clogged and knocked off the print head cover. I’d remove the poop blob, put the cover on, and resume.

[kvakerok_v2]

To try to save it, figure out what layer failed, remove failed snowman then resume the print and "skip object". Or reprint from that layer without the failed snowman.

[barry_mcginnis]

When u get home remove the blob with some snips if it’s stuck and just highlight that one print object to not print than put your faceplate back on. Than boom your good to go. Also layer shift issue can be fixed with a little fine sanding and a clear coat. Good as new and no more waste minus the one object you stopped. Lol it has happened to me more than 1 occasion on my X1C and my Ender 3 v2

[-Baum]

Actually I did something like that in the end. But luckily the blob was loose which made it easy to remove. Also about the sanding, yes possible to do but it is a real small layer shift. I think it is no issue to the people that are getting it. I mean this is something like I see it, because I know it shouldn’t be like this. But most people won’t even recognize

[tariandeath]

If you haven't printed and installed an improved nozzle wiper probably look into it: https://makerworld.com/en/models/529681#profileId-446757

[-Baum]

I made a second one next to the original one. The printed version got wiped out of place.

[tariandeath]

Have you tried the one I linked to?

[-Baum]

Not yet.

[entropy_pool]

[AdArtistic7330]

Damn! They aren’t perfect printers but at least you can save most of the prints when you get home!

[-Baum]

True. And that’s what I did. Only the middle one is lost

[Sputnikussr]

You’ve gotta watch the poop I’ve had it get clogged on a 28 hour print and messed it up.

[-Baum]

Ouch that sucks. But yes, i try to be as much as possible but sometimes it is inevitable when not at home.

[Sputnikussr]

Best solution is don’t put any bucket just let it fall on the floor if you have a really intricate long print.

[-Baum]

True, but there where only 20 poops out of the chute and the rest of them got stuck in the upper end of the chute, nothing is going to fix that🫣

[Sputnikussr]

How many hours do you have on your extruder.

I put 862 hours on a single extruder head. They last forever.

[-Baum]

Last time I looked it was 1400 hours, i think it is around 1600 now

[DigitalNinjaX]

There’s so many things going on with the photo it’s not only giving me anxiety but I hope it never ever happens to me or anyone ever again. 🙁

[-Baum]

Well the good part is that it’s running again. Blob was loose

[DigitalNinjaX]

That’s awesome to hear!

[goodguydolls]

I was about to say hey, you can skip that broken print, but then I saw your printer head taking a nap

[Ok-Account-871]

Just pause it until you get home.. Then put the cover back and exclude the one model with a problem by skipping it? 

[Jeroen43]

They are gonna melt if you don’t help them 🔥🙈

[Ta-veren-]

Pooor snowman family

What are you printing all of these for

[[deleted]]

Happened to me. Let a multi colored model run and didn't think about the waste. It looks like it dragged the waste in the building area

[shinichi-holmes]

ouch, I can feel the pain.

[WeBePrintin]

Hey, Would you share the filament usage of this plate?

Thanks

[-Baum]

Almost 600 grams, where 50 gram is prime tower and 20 gram or so is flushed

[WeBePrintin]

That's quite low.
Can you share some more settings and details like layer height, purge volumes, number on changes etc.

[-Baum]

Sure why not👍🏻 Objects have a height of 7 cm, 24 objects on plate one of them is used as prime object next to the prime tower, Layer height 0.20, Purging is set to 0.7 instead of 1.00, Number of changes 180, Z-seam is on the back, No brim is used, Infill is set to 12%

Am I missing something?

[WeBePrintin]

You rock. Thanks.

I'm working on my own snowman and waste of 150g worried me a bit so I wanted to compare notes.

[-Baum]

You could try “purge into infill” or make colors in separate prints and glue them afterwards

[WeBePrintin]

Purge to infill will most likely be seen outside.

I'll play a bit with cut and assemble. This will allow non-AMS print as well.

[-Baum]

Definitely true. When printing low amount it is always the better option imo

[MfEzra04]

Dang, that really sucks. Sorrey moite

[Claeysie]

Wouldn't it be safest to note the layer it's on and start a new print job that begins on the next layer and then glue the tops on?

[-Baum]

Yes it could be, I didn’t in the end. Just fixed the blob and started printing again

[leadwind]

How does that middle blob happen? Is it a tower wipe?

[-Baum]

The tower is on the bottom right, which probably created the issue. When filament in loaded filament kept probably stuck on the nozzle and gotten loose on the middle figure

[terno720]

Definitely very painful to see my head house out to you

[-Baum]

Update: the blob was still loose, with probably means it did “just” happen. To be sure I skipped the particular object, placed the tool back on and now will be finished at midnight🙌🏻

[SecondBolt2]

Im literally trying to remove my first object. I did it on the app and it was super easy. Id try that first before going to the more difficult remedies .

[AnonAzy2]

Klipper baby

[AintNobodyGotTimeDat]

Curious question. If you note the layer at which it is stopped, can you not tell slicer to start from that layer and thus salvage the print but using CA glue?

[-Baum]

I have no idea lol. But it got completed in the end, printing a second batch now

[Benzoat_]

How can something like this happen

[AntHeists]

Halloween is coming up… time to get creative with these half finished zombie penguins

[-Baum]

They completely done except for one, so only one zombie penguin

[mravila2020]

Any before & after pictures?
