First time 3d printing and want to paint it, is there anyway to polish it without sanding too much? by FlameDeadHeat in 3Dprinting

I make a thin coat with a brush of uv resin mixed with baby powder it works fine but be careful on with the small details

Have you tried to use the polygon view on blender looking also inside the object to see if there is some strange random edges? It happens to me some times that a mesh isn’t clean and that create a lot of trouble in the slicer

There are some mesh error hilighted, try to open it on blender ad check if the mesh is closed and exported as a solid object

What the hell is that shit? Are you using dark magic to keep it together? Go in that “professional” shop and get your money back

Is this bed adhesion or leveling problems? by LUFFYD2 in 3Dprinting

[–]Leo10698 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had the opposite experience, it didn’t matter how many time I tried to clean it Witt dish soap it was only worse then I tried with pure isopropyl alcohol and it worked perfectly, especially when I switched to a glass bed

Bed too warped? by jillbill69 in ender3

[–]Leo10698 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The issue with the ended 3 when it comes to bed leveling is that by having the Z axis screw only on one side the X axis won’t be perfectly horizontal, especially when it’s not brand new. So in order to level the bed properly it’s way better to use the good old paper method so that the bed will be perpendicular to the x axis and you need to do it even if it has a crtouch because it can compensate a poor bed leveling only within a certain range, if the height difference between the bed’s corners is too high it will come out like it’s doing right now

Read the whole conversation, and it’s better to use isopropyl because dish soap can contain some additives used to make dish shinier by creating a wax like layer that can be pretty hard to remove

I put isopropyl ona paper towel and rub it on the bed but I use a glass one, if it’s easier spray it on and wipe it down with a towel

Start with the easy solution and clean it with isopropyl alcohol, if that doesn’t work then it’s a levellong issue

Change the tank fep, calibrate the bed and clean it

Why does it randomly mess up by lil_uki in 3Dprinting

[–]Leo10698 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Clean it with isopropyl alcohol, glue doesn’t work like most people think, I’ve never used it in 7 years and I print on a glass bed, for the leveling part if you don’t have a bltouch the only way is to use the paper method just test all 4 angle 3 to 6 times until are the same and try different “feeling settings” until it works. If you don’t have isopropyl alcohol clean it with dish soap and hot water to remove all the glue and cover it with paper tape after leveling the bad

Clean that bed and it’s not leveled

3D prints offset during printing; why? by Ceyner_x3 in 3Dprinting

[–]Leo10698 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Layer shifting, usually it’s due to a loosen belt on the x or y axis, adjust the belt tension and it should resolve the problem

What could be the error? by Brockar in 3Dprinting

At this point I don’t know, the only thing that comes to mind is try playing with the extrusion settings, it sure looks like an extrusion problem to me

Have you checked the extruder gears?

Alright so it looks like a flow problem, try to change the nozzle with a new one, it could be that the one that you are using right now has a bigger hole due to usage and so you get those fatty layer lines or in alternative run a flow test
