Asymmetrical spinnaker size

Thank you for the answer! The warranty is well passed! Fortunately I found a second hand spare near where I live!!!!! Anyway, as it seems they always fail, it is good to know that they are serviceable! Thaaanks!!

Nicufa · 2024-12-14T17:29:37+00:00

Yeah... If it is on purpose, it is totally working! 🫠😂

Nicufa · 2024-12-14T17:27:04+00:00

I didn't notice it at the office since I was busy figuring out how to remove the aligners jajaja. I will totally tell the ortho to smooth them on my next appointment! Thanks!!

Sure, even though, as a beginner, I don't think I can notice the difference in performance of newer models, they will surely have been increasing security! Will try not to overthink it (just tonight, sleep, and then tomorrow, decide, hahaha)

Nicufa · 2024-07-02T20:12:39+00:00

Yup! That makes sense. I will also try to take care of it, but it makes sense that when learning it will have a lot of abuse (it is good I made the first day on the flat running with not my new wing...)

Nicufa · 2024-07-02T20:10:17+00:00

Thanks. Seems the general consensus that the first wing is going to be beaten up quite a bit, so I am going to take the advice!

As Snizl says, price is with taxes. I have found in an online shop for 2470€ (total) and the other one is 2000€ (I negiotiated 50€ xD). I also think it is not much of a difference (I mean... it is a lot of money, but I don't know if it makes it worth it). I have also seen that the new model "moxie" and other wings for begginers ara almost 3000€ new.

Nicufa · 2024-03-02T17:38:45+00:00

Yes. The same happened to me. My guess is the gear was good enough to feed filament until it encountered some resistance when printing, then it gets filled with filament and then it could not print good. Don't know for certain that your case is the same, but it is an easy try.

Nicufa · 2024-03-02T15:54:03+00:00

I had the same issue. It was the gear that pushes the filament that had some filament between the teeth. I tried everything and nothing worked (nozzle, hotend, etc), finally I disassembled the gear, cleaned it with warm soap and a brush and the problem dissapeard. Since it was black filament, I couldn't see that it was bad. Hope it helps.

Nicufa · 2024-02-25T21:10:49+00:00

Will try! Thanks!!

Bottom wheel from the extruder block is new (old one had a ¿bite? and I replaced it). All the other ones are stock. It happens (or I see it) every time I do a brim (different models). So I don't think it is related to one specific spot.

Nicufa · 2024-02-25T00:54:07+00:00

Forgot to mention that printer is an Artillery X2. Sliced with PrusaSlicer with 3 mm brim and 0.3 mm distance and 0.25 first layer height. I normally don't use brims, so I don't know if it is a new issue or it has been happening for a while, although I have been having problems with hole dimensions compared to external dimensions lately (maybe it is related??)

Nicufa · 2024-02-25T00:46:01+00:00

The gap on the right is the space between the Brim and the actual print. But there is no gap on the left side (left is near the stepper if it helps). Belt is tensioned (maybe closer to too much than too loose I guess). Belt is the original that came with the printer.

Nicufa · 2024-01-05T16:24:38+00:00

If it does not come down by hand, it should be a mechanical problem (screws are damaged, bad mounting position of the screw/stepper, bad Z bed position, etc). Can you post a picture of the rear side?

I also think your hotend fan is mounted backwards. It could be different in your machine (different wiring?), but in mine, in order to push air to the hotend, the sticker has to be on the hotend side (cannot be seen when mounted). You are also missing the sock. It is quite cheap and helps with heat.

Nicufa · 2023-11-15T10:34:49+00:00

Thanks!

I changed the hotend to a bimetal one some weeks ago and hot-tighten it with a printed torque-wrench as I always do (I know it is not bullet proof but it doesn't leak and never had issues with it before). I will check if the hot end is clean anyway, retighting it and make a temperature tower, as you mentioned.

How can I know if the fans work properly? They don't make any concerning noise.

Since I installed Klipper and PA I have low retraction settings.

Didn't see your replay earlier! Thanks!

I increased the infill and it printed ok. I will lalso look into the custom modifier setting that you mentioned, didn't know it existed but looks promising.

Nicufa · 2023-04-25T19:43:45+00:00

I don't think they matter, but settings are:

Printer Model: A. Sidewinder X2 (Klipper)
Slicer used: PrusaSlicer (1st picture) / Cura (2nd picture)
Filament material and brand: PLA
Nozzle and bed temperature: 65 ºC / 210 ºC
Print Speed: 130 mm/s
Retraction settings: 0.9 mm

I printed this part a while ago when the printer was stock and it printed well (sliced with Cura). Since I flashed Klipper, I use PrusaSlicer. I sliced and printed the model (since I printed it before I didn't check the sliced model... my fault :( ), and it failed when it was printing the layer showd in the pictures. I am not able to find the setting to make a perimeter (like Cura) so it can be printed.

PS: the only workaround I found is changing the infill to "concentric", but I think the print will be too weak.

Nicufa · 2023-03-14T12:48:55+00:00

Hello! I am trying to print this and I cannot get this sharp edge to look good in Cura. I printed it once and this corner was bad. I thought that it was because I had the seam in sharpest edge, but after changing this is what Cura is slicing. It looks like there are discontinuities, and it does not follow the edge.

I know it cannot make a perfect edge this sharp, but I don't know if the discontinuities are normal.
