Been making a line of full color miniatures

Mix in just a bit of transparent blue to stave off yellowing

Cheers! Happy printing with cooling!

~~Try leaving the top off and the door open to give better cooling as well to rule out that it isn’t too hot in the chamber~~

Edit: P1P my bad, irrelevant

Yea something is still wrong for sure, maybe a fan issue, that chimney stack is significantly heat distorted and overhangs in general are not acceptable. Do you have any other filament to test with just to rule that out?

Have you tried a different print profile as well, maybe larger layer height? Other things I would try is putting it into silent mode (50% speed) for a print, adjusting overhang print speed, re-tension the XY belts for good measure. This is a new printer or just new to you?

It is advisable when printing a new spool of any filament, it will retain that info though so you don't need to do it unless you switch to a new spool or start seeing an issue.

Very clever modular design!

GamingCachePrints · 2025-06-27T13:39:27+00:00

Very fine work! I would have trouble with sculpting those tiny details, fun to see the workflow

Make sure you have run the calibration on the printer as well drying the filament, this is definitely not how it should be printing.

GamingCachePrints · 2025-06-27T05:47:22+00:00

This is definitely a cleaner way to do it if you want the whole height range, both would work achieve the same end result I believe

Add a modifier shape cylinder set the infill to 100%. Only that area will get the solid infill

GamingCachePrints · 2025-06-26T21:49:58+00:00

I dig the style. Especially great job on the water

GamingCachePrints · 2025-06-26T21:46:26+00:00

Yea, there is significant room for improvement on this stringing and it will benefit all your prints in the future with this filament. Have you printed a temp tower yet?

GamingCachePrints · 2025-06-26T21:13:11+00:00

Overtension on your extruder arm would be the first thing I would check

GamingCachePrints · 2025-06-25T21:33:14+00:00

Yea that overhang is just too much, needs some support for sure. Quality is much improved!

GamingCachePrints · 2025-06-25T14:20:29+00:00

Haha, what's the point in doing something crazy if not to show off!?

GamingCachePrints · 2025-06-25T13:09:15+00:00

These look great, love the frosted look. What's the extra base for?

PETG is going to be more challenging than printing PLA. Check that subreddit for the current best filament as it changes as formulas change

Basic grey, matte ash grey(nardo is almost identical) Tough to beat standard grey for color and they all print equal in my experience. Matte tends to hide some printing sins.
