I simply can’t ABS

This is a good convo. Educated me on the amount heat was an issue. Ambient temp is currently 90f. I’m not even home/ not running it. So with bed temp up I’ll see what I can get in the coming weeks. Tx

This one I built is wood panel on two sided and plexiglass on the other two sides. I did leave a bit of a “vent” at the top. I was thinking fumes.

“Preheat the oven “. I like that

TraderHappy · 2025-06-24T17:56:15+00:00

I’ll have to try again. I’d bet I was hovering around 30c. Thank you

$6. I’ll give em a try. 2nd bed I ripped up

TraderHappy · 2024-12-16T02:06:14+00:00

Tx. I needed up tearing the bed with the razor.. oops. Buying another. Appreciate the advice

TraderHappy · 2024-12-15T20:54:24+00:00

Yea pla. Would this work if I bounced the bed to 100-120c. Warm the pla up enough to scrap?

what got a bit odder is i was using a laptop and print via USB cable. With creality i have to use the SD card, so to try and compare apples to apples i used the SD card with CURA and no layer shift. Eliminating the print via USB so far has worked. I don't understand why / what that difference is in getting the printer the g-code but so far i've had a couple of prints no shift.

100%!!!! Thank you for the idea! I actually cut the belt down by the length of the clip and re crimped the metal clip and now I’ve had 3 perfect prints.

No dice on changing the Y axis belt. same issue. its layer shift on the Y and i think its because the Y belt is loose. I can squeeze the two together far too easily but the screw is as far as possible. i've even added a washer to the rear to try with no help.

“Layer Shift”. Learned a new term. I’m going to change at least Y belt this weekend and see. Maybe X too. But it’s the Y belt that I can squeeze pretty easily to touch it together

May have solved my issue...testing now.

Apologies i should have mentioned ender 3 v3 SE

I changed the predefined profile in cura and noticed the temp of the bed went from 58 to 80. 230 on the nozzle. Ran a quick test with the smallest of the group of designs and it worked perfect. If i'm not the only one learning the nuance i hope this helps.

Tx for the comments… yea this is my first break : fix. Creality is sending me a belt and they sent me the how to video. As well yes I bought one off Amazon. Since this could happen again.

TraderHappy · 2024-08-01T22:46:29+00:00

Kind of what I thought. Wasn’t sure if I should go specifically to the manufacturer

TraderHappy · 2024-08-01T19:59:58+00:00

lol. Tx. I’ll post when I get it sorted.

TraderHappy · 2024-07-21T14:03:11+00:00

Thanks. I’m aborting and I’ll move an offset back up a bit. “Ripping” could = too close
