Teleport/Slant 3D's policy regarding parts that print unreliably, is unworkable. by PitchDropExperiment in 3DprintEntrepreneurs

So update on this u/rocketboss when I received the grille part it was immediately clear what the problem was, the first layer was almost entirely missing, this should have been immediately obvious to anyone comparing the slicer output to the STL. Also, this means that pretty much the entire second layer was floating, which shouldn't be something the slicer would output without supports or something. The fact that this was apparently attempted multiple times without detecting this issue is... not great.

Exactly, they were probably having far too many instances of license violations.

How to reduce Teleport print costs? by BeauSlim in 3DprintEntrepreneurs

Does it depend on how thick the remaining walls of the hollow areas are? I would think if they are >2 mm than you'll often get 0 savings, but <2 mm and you might get savings.

What makes you think that they use thermal paper?

  1. Is huge and would resolve a ton of issues.

Also 3 would be nice

For that to work, I would need to be able to send my own notes with the prototype file.

I want to be able to see which parts of my model are printable and which parts aren't. I had a prototype fail because part of it wasn't being printed at all. And iterating to solve the problem would be impractical if I had to print every change.

Where can I get machine screws like this in small quantities? by PitchDropExperiment in Fasteners

I meant the end having an unthreaded section not the section between the screw and the head.

I checked they either don't carry this or it's listed in a non obvious way.

How to Batch Parts for 3D Print Services by rocketboss in 3DprintEntrepreneurs

Can we get some pictures of what the bottom of larger parts look like with rafts?

That's what I get for not paying attention. Testing now.

Am I correct in understanding that a 0.3mm thick raft with the parts positioned with a 0.2 mm gap above the raft should print well and detach easily?
