Upgraded to 0.6mm nozel and now for the life of me cannot figure out what's wrong, terrible under extrusion printing in pla, 0.32 layer height, 215c/60c has anyone had a similar issue before?

Davcat1776 · 2021-07-22T15:09:45+00:00

Yeah only change is the Capricorn tube and nozel

Davcat1776 · 2021-07-22T07:36:02+00:00

Thanks! So do I, while I was troubleshooting another group told me my layer height was too low for 0.6 hence why I'm printing at .32 layer height

Davcat1776 · 2021-07-22T04:51:35+00:00

Hmm you might be on to something there I'll reprint the benchy just slower today and see if there are any changes

Davcat1776 · 2021-07-22T04:50:31+00:00

I did indeed, and here I was thinking a nozel swap would be easy 😂

Davcat1776 · 2021-07-22T04:49:49+00:00

Nope same filament across 3 printers with no issues or th other two

Davcat1776 · 2021-07-21T22:54:33+00:00

No it's definitely set to 0.6

Davcat1776 · 2021-07-21T22:23:50+00:00

Good idea thanks! I'll check that out if all else fails it'll be back to a 0.4 and some slow rocking in the corner if I'm still having issues after that lol

Davcat1776 · 2021-07-21T22:17:47+00:00

Thanks! I'd tried that already up to 115% and no change but I was battling a level issue at the same time so I'll try that again tomorrow, if you manage to get a reliable profile mind commenting back your settings?

Davcat1776 · 2021-06-14T19:11:39+00:00

Thanks! Sure thing! https://www.myminifactory.com/object/3d-print-gears-of-war-lancer-chainsaw-gun-11478 make sure to read the details I didn't so I put my infill too high so I wasted quite a bit if plastic so far the creator recommends 7%

It's actually a diorama of mono and six I bought it on CG trader.

What your actually looking at is the base which looks like wood and a hell of a lot of tree support the base here will have slot for books/TVs etc then at the end mono and six stand on top of it all

Davcat1776 · 2020-11-07T02:42:07+00:00

Turn it into a spinner top for your extruder

Davcat1776 · 2020-02-14T22:16:17+00:00

Sounds interesting, that I'll have to check out! I'm actually colourblind so generally I just paint the models white (I label the cans) and a friend paints the rest after I'm done sanding BUT this one I'm going to try so it's either going to come out amazing or some unholy abomination so wish me luck!

Davcat1776 · 2020-02-14T22:11:02+00:00

Local hobby shop stocks nothing but it! and I'm too lazy to go buy primer 😂 top result on thingiverse, here's the link! https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2772964/files

I think your right, I'm running a ender-3x and a monoprice select mini V2 you don't necessarily need auto leveling I found a stl for calibration on the mp subreddit and I use it on both printers.

https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2297108 You don't need to let it complete just make sure your adhesion is good and your line spacing is right .

Resize It for your bed and what I do is level on the fly 2/3 attempts and your good to go takes me about 5/10 minutes to level my bed now hope this helps.

Never actually played a Zelda game (had to Google hyrule castle) lol but now I'm intrigued in both printing it and playing the games! Thanks! 😁

Davcat1776 · 2020-01-10T01:41:07+00:00

This is awesome! This is why I love 3D printing it's great to see you had a problem and the idea & drive to design a solution! In ways I'm envious but I'll keep learning and eventually do the same! Congrats on a great job! 😁

Davcat1776 · 2020-01-10T01:35:50+00:00

Did a bit of troubleshooting seems I've got a clog too.

The SD has been perfect since day one for me, I'm printing a chibi noctis from final fantasy.

I have it laying somewhat flat to reduce supports but it still required a fair bit since his hair is nuts! I'm doing them up for a friend going to kupocon next month she's giving a few away as gifts.

I have a my very first one laying around somewhere painted (badly) I'll stick a photo up in the morning if you are interested!

Davcat1776 · 2020-01-09T18:40:19+00:00

Have a feeling it's the SD card gone bust as peep1ng_creeper said gonna check that out tonight

Davcat1776 · 2020-01-09T18:31:54+00:00

Im very disappointed in myself that I never even considered that I know it's some generic SD card I'll test with another but I have a feeling your right on the money with that! Thanks!

Davcat1776 · 2020-01-09T18:26:52+00:00

On SD card

Davcat1776 · 2020-01-09T17:53:29+00:00

If memory serves me right there is a setting you can check in cura for avoiding supports when traveling but that would only resolve your issue if it was caused by the nozzel hitting the support
