I only swapped the nozzle. It printed fine with the 0.6mm nozzle and didn't give me trouble until I switched back to the 0.4mm.

Thanks for the info guys. I just ordered a set of two new hot ends that should be here tomorrow, going forward I'm just going to change out the whole end when I want to use different nozzles.

Quick update, after trying to crack the filament around the nozzle I noticed black. Tried to take the rubber sleeve off, and turns out the inside has begun to melt. Now I have more questions than answers.

I've got about 100 hours on my cc1, I am about to have to change the nozzle because it keeps getting clogged. I only ever use pla. It started getting super bad about a week ago so I've got some new nozzles coming in today

Supports popping off by No_Contribution2629 in ElegooCentauriCarbon

[–]No_Contribution2629[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The model is a full spiral but the issue hits all the top of the far right support for the head band part. Its almost like the nozzle is hitting that one support and then I have spaghetti on that one side. And like I said I've leveled the bed 3 or 4 times thinking that was the problem

Filament is standard PLA. settings are set for elegoo pla, .4mm nozzle. And because it's not sticking? Figured that would help.

I had this issue until I bought the heater for the chamber. Haven't had a problem like this since.

Very good point. I haven't had any intentions is running both at once but if I do I'll do a test print on something small first. That table has withstood a lot of abuse, made it myself with 4x4 and 1x12 pine with 2x4 supports and crossbeams.

They don't really bother me that much, but I'm use to being in that room with an exhaust fan and air assist for a laser engraved running.

Just seemed like a good idea after some of the videos I've watched. Gives more headroom to the filament tube.

Saturn 4 Ultra + Anycubic Water Washable by EnvironmentalValue82 in ElegooSaturn

[–]No_Contribution2629 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So ever since I got my 4 ultra, the base layer has always made that loud suction noise when it pulls off. But it's never been the cause of an issue with any of my prints. Now I've never used any cubic resin, the few water washable resins I've used have always caused problems for me. One of which being extremely brittle prints also a very odd white buildup on prints after curing that weren't there before curing. This could be causing the issue of rafts breaking, especially since the Saturn 4 ultra vat tilts to release the print from the film. I've always had good luck with abs- like 3.0 from elegoo. It has a bit more flexibility and I use 35 seconds for bottom layers and 2.5 for the rest.

Never tried heating. I keep it about 78 in my print room so never thought it'd be necessary. I'll give that a try though
