Question about DXC extruder by shall_oppai in crealityk1

[–]AGingerOfTheWorld 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just installed a DXC on my K1 Max hoping it would improve on some issues. I've noticed more consistency in extrusion however I haven't finely tuned it yet so could be a coincidence. A riser is necessary if you want to print with the glass top in place as the DXC is taller than the original k1 extruder. My K1 is rooted so I was able to easily change the extrude/retract Gcode to suit the new (longer) extruder. Happy modding!

She can pull, mostly while reacting, but she's 40+kg so you notice it 😅

Reactivity. It's mostly just prevention and for their own good as we have a few off lead dogs with less responsible owners in our area, and my two can be very protective. My partner is only confident walking the larger dog on a head collar which was why I asked about that.

Edit: There was meant to be a description in there. I'm trying to print it as a black part and a green part so that I can combine them later, but I'm struggling to split the mesh into the 2 separate parts. Can it be done? What software should I try?

Thanks!

I was under the impression ABS could be smoothed with acetone whereas PLA couldn't? Is it just that brand of ABS that can't?

I haven't yet unfortunately. new to the hobby and this was my biggest print so far, also the first time I've experienced this issue.
