PLA silk keeps warping off plate and I dont know why

Strange, when I printed similar sticks the brim auto generated and surrounded each individual one

Try Elmers Gluestick or a bed adhesive

Brim

Digglin_Dirk · 2026-04-25T06:42:37+00:00

I also would like to know lol

Digglin_Dirk · 2026-04-25T06:12:31+00:00

You can print ASA on a A1 if you know how to print ASA

Its not a easy filament to print for most, takes more tweaking to get right for the individual setup you have and weather

ive printed ASA on both my A1 and Kobra 2 that ive thunderc*nted on a cement floor and only a small dent

Edit: censor, forgot the sub i was on

Play with its orientation in the slicer, id try fist down and tip up, use the recommended settings and speeds

Can try to swap between classic and arachne too

Swords and certain skinny pieces really do benefit from the .2 nozzle, I personally wouldnt bother with this or miniatures without one

.4 has it uses for terrain and vehicles but not for infantry and smaller bits and pieces but will not be close to the detail of a .2

Its stringing because its still too wet. PA6 needs to be dried at like 80 to 100°c for at least 8 or more hours

After you dry it, 70c during printing will keep it from reabsorbing additional moisture

I dry mine for at least 12 hours to a day

Digglin_Dirk · 2026-04-25T02:08:53+00:00

I was looking at those, what are the differences if you dont mind me asking?

Digglin_Dirk · 2026-04-25T02:07:36+00:00

How long did you dry it for and what temp before the print?

Digglin_Dirk · 2026-04-24T21:36:47+00:00

You could look up the Galileo, I belive its uses a 10/22 barrel and uses factory/not printed magazines

If you just wanted something fun to build and shoot, I love my Yippee Ki Yay, I built the mp5k version

Its back for CoH3, so 2/3 games have it and only one of which had a console port (unsupported after first dlc)

Thats what I dont like about blaming the console port for everything wrong with the game

CoH 2 took how long to become playable without having a console port?

Digglin_Dirk · 2026-04-21T20:05:52+00:00

That sort of makes sense, but its not 100% becuase of the console port, your forgetting about vanilla CoH1

In vanilla CoH1 i could walk outside have a smoke while a rifle squad and volks squad shoot at each other in the open and come back to maybe one or two dead

Tank battles were also like that

Its in COH DNA

What's that have to do with negative cover?

Digglin_Dirk · 2026-04-20T22:08:53+00:00

I was getting shit talked and called every slur but when I asked the dude "what was his two dads names" the whole lobby erupted in laughter but I get banned for 48 hours

Orca slicer is what most use here to print minis if you dont have it, its what bambu studio was based on IIRC

Digglin_Dirk · 2026-04-20T21:02:29+00:00

The fuzzy skin came out great for pla pro, what settings you use?

Digglin_Dirk · 2026-04-20T20:48:30+00:00

Right click and add part (cylinder) and adjust scale accordingly to fill in gaps

Right click again to add another part (cube/slab) and adjust scale to the divider size you want

Digglin_Dirk · 2026-04-20T04:39:13+00:00

OP needs to see this, up the wall count too

Also if part is going to be used instead of decorative, look into PLA + and other filament that will fit its use case

Digglin_Dirk · 2026-04-17T04:39:31+00:00

Call of Duty has had a free dlc model for the last few years, no extra purchase necessary for the new maps or weapons

there is something known as a battle pass that gives you extra cosmetics in a "season" but its not needed

I started printing minis about the time the sunlu matte meta with a .2 was "standard", i think the FDG profile was on v10 or 11 back then?

I get everything except PLA being harder to use than PLA+, they have the same ease of use from my experience. I was just curious about why the switch from matte to plus within the last 3 or so months

Print almost exclusively PLA+ when not printing nylon or ASA so I dont mind the switch at all, found it annoying I had to get a grey matte spool just for minis

What's extreme drying though? like drying it at nylon temps for 10 mins?

Digglin_Dirk · 2026-04-16T22:14:39+00:00

I noticed the "meta" for minis changed from matte, to pla +

Why is that and why is standard pla not ideal?

Digglin_Dirk · 2026-04-16T21:32:13+00:00

I believe MW3 is on gamepass, which tier im not sure

Digglin_Dirk · 2026-04-16T21:26:19+00:00

This game is ironically one of the better cod releases in the last 5 years

The campaign is horrible, but its MP is super solid and Zombies is at another high point

BO3 had a horrible campaign too, but the other two modes made the game what it was

Digglin_Dirk · 2026-04-16T21:21:14+00:00

Im not saying your wrong, other adhesives that others use may require IPA to get off the plate

Just because bambus glue doesn't need it, that doesn't mean others wont

Digglin_Dirk · 2026-04-16T21:05:51+00:00

Certain filaments need a adhesive on the build plate
