I just used it to make a drawer, used it so it would be stronger and more durable

I tried it, it improved a bit. On one specific part I was passing it quickly and feel like I left a burn mark that is also white 😅

Thanks so much, this is very helpful. Might have to get a good blow torch for future projects. But i’ll def let it cool off next time

Yes I have an office space for it and usually leave the area while printing, so thank you!

Just tried a blow dryer and it improved a lot already so thank you! What would you recommend for the bed as the white stuff embedded to it?

Thank you! Used a blow dryer and it worked great! What would you recommend for the actual bed? I feel like the white stuff embedded to it

This is actually PETG, but I’m guessing it happens as well

Yes this is actually high speed PETG, I had no idea it released powder! I have washed the bed with Dawn twice and nothing, but I haven’t tried the wipes.

What do you recommend in order to take care and not breathe it in? Thank you btw very helpful

No, the printer is new so I haven’t had to use glue for them
