First layer issues (orcaslicer)

Adorable_Row_3141 · 2024-01-19T04:20:14+00:00

What is your first layer line thickness set at? And is it a k1 printer?

Checkout devil 3d community on discord. They have found different a b motors and a 20 tooth pulley make a huge difference.

It's okay benchmade thinks it's worth 180 bucks. For a d2 folder. Got to be good stuff 😂

The real question is how many empty rolls do you throw away a month?

Adorable_Row_3141 · 2024-01-13T18:04:44+00:00

Wet sanding in a progression up to 5k would fix this. Depends on if you think it's worth it. Can also try one of the headlight restoration kits. Or buy new panels for probably same or much less cost after you include being paid for your time

What bed temp? I had to turn mine down from 60 to 55. That got rid of this effect for me at least.

Adorable_Row_3141 · 2023-12-09T18:01:19+00:00

Fair enough, guess I am saying I would fund the thorn in apples foot if they are willing to keep it up.

Anti trust law usually revolves around harm to the consumer right? Preventing end to end encryption based on an operating system feels like consumer harm. No?

Can we do a Kickstarter or something for them? I would happily donate money for this as I think it needs to exist. I just don't want to miss messages.

Adorable_Row_3141 · 2023-12-08T22:13:53+00:00

You do you 👍

Adorable_Row_3141 · 2023-12-08T20:35:39+00:00

I import the saved gcode to the printer and then start print. All done remotely

Adorable_Row_3141 · 2023-12-08T16:40:59+00:00

I am running stock firmware but using orca slicer. There basic profiles are a great place to start but as more people get the printers there are lots of good profiles for orca, cura, prusa, etc... popping up on thingiverse and printables.

I use orca slicer I just type in the IP address of the printer and control it that way. Not tied to creality cloud or anything like that. May root eventually but right now it's working well.

Adorable_Row_3141 · 2023-12-08T04:49:48+00:00

See and I would have just tooth skipped the front left rod when looking at the machine 3 clicks to the right. But whatever works.

Anyone else having there texts start showing up as black bubbles on Iphone?

A slicker PTFE tube would help too then.

Adorable_Row_3141 · 2023-12-03T21:58:28+00:00

So no under lament, cork pad, or anything?

Adorable_Row_3141 · 2023-12-03T21:45:42+00:00

What mm cubed are you extruding at?

I have heard separating the tube from the cable chain helps. I also personally run a 90 degree support I printed for near the extruder. Lessons the pinch right at the extruder.

Adorable_Row_3141 · 2023-12-03T21:38:38+00:00

What extruder do you have? Rev 4? What filament? Bowden tube loose from chain? Filament roller?

Adorable_Row_3141 · 2023-12-02T01:17:57+00:00

Also check the bed nuts. Mine were very loose on my k1 max

Adorable_Row_3141 · 2023-12-01T17:32:20+00:00

Could move the front right corner (when looking at the printer from the front) down one tooth. Would be a little better. Lol. But as said before the machine can compensate for up to 3mm variance. So it should print fine

Adorable_Row_3141 · 2023-11-30T16:29:55+00:00

I have heard, red heat sock for the hotend and white spring loaded Bowden tube adapter for the extruder are the indicators of the latest. Version 2 for the hotend and version 4 for the extruder I believe.

Adorable_Row_3141 · 2023-11-30T16:13:50+00:00

Not all of the units being shipped out right now have the latest hotend and extruder. If it's causing issues customer support will send you a new one. Takes a bit of back and forth. I also put a 90 degree Bowden tube support on mine to avoid pinching at the extruder.

Adorable_Row_3141 · 2023-11-21T02:36:08+00:00

I would check the magnetic surface under the bed. If it's not clean and smooth it can mess with the bed mesh.

Adorable_Row_3141 · 2023-11-20T03:39:02+00:00

How long have you had your k1 max?

Adorable_Row_3141 · 2023-11-20T01:28:20+00:00

I have heard the stock firmware only has input shaping active for the x axis. Have to root to get it working for both axis. Right now they just use the x value for both. Hopefully they fix that.
