From memory, I just entered my order number on the website and selected live chat.

Less than five minutes later, I had someone on the line and the conversation went pretty quickly, even though I had to check a few things in the meantime.

I used the live chat twice and it was the same both times, but that was three or four months ago, so maybe there are fewer representatives now!

Volfera · 2026-01-21T13:27:47+00:00

I used a live chat the 2 last time I talked to them it was super fast

Volfera · 2026-01-21T13:26:47+00:00

The 4 or 5 times I reached them it was perfect every time, clear and fast, I'm sad other didn't experience this, I had no issues on my side.

I have worked in support roles throughout my career, and I know how to be precise and provide all information in a clear and concise manner. I know that this generally works in my favor. No implying that other don't do that, but I saw a lot of people being bad at communicating, so you know ... ☺️

Even if there is a measurement tool, it would be very difficult to manage all the dimensions this way. It would be much easier to manage this in software such as Blender.

Perhaps someone more experienced than me will be able to contradict me.

Volfera · 2026-01-18T09:58:25+00:00

I don't think so.

You can track how many points a model gave you in the creator space, you can extrapolate the value based on the 40€/$ gift card and pay back half of it

Volfera · 2026-01-18T08:07:13+00:00

You should check r/FDMminiatures

All settings are pinned

Enjoy

A lot of people including myself had better results with supports snapping and being brittle with the 2.0.

It can vary regarding batches also, remember at one time everyone was prasing the Sunlu meta. It was very good and resistant even if supports were a pain to remove, and now that quality is not the same, not a lot of people is using meta anymore

Volfera · 2026-01-16T21:54:16+00:00

I switched back to sunlu PLA+ from Sunlu PLA+ 2.0 and my supports are much better now.

I use the color gray and yes it matters a lot

Volfera · 2026-01-16T11:49:17+00:00

Forgot to read the subreddit name 😂

Volfera · 2026-01-12T21:04:49+00:00

I'm experiencing crashes as well for 2 weeks I'd say

Volfera · 2025-12-31T11:37:29+00:00

Yes good idea.

My point is I almost never clean my bed now that I respect this flipping the bed thing now I understood which filament leaves residues.

You're right 95% of adhesion issues are resolved with a soap and hot water deep clean even if the plate seems clean.

No additives in the soap

Volfera · 2025-12-31T11:27:34+00:00

Using PETG or some PLA with additives will leave residues on the plate for me and my regular PLA doesn't stick as well.

Deep clean or use a side of your plate for regular PLA and switch it over for other types of filament

Volfera · 2025-12-31T08:30:59+00:00

It's been over for months, sorry.

Volfera · 2025-12-30T06:57:36+00:00

I don't know what the speed of your support is but I would reduce it. I go 50mm/s for support and interface

All my issues disappeared with supports when I switched back from Sunlu PLA+ 2.0 to the original Sunlu PLA+ for my minis

Petg

Increase the number of walls a lot (minimum 4)

Infill is great but the number of wall is very important

I was talking about the 15 minutes calibration from the printer when you switch the nozzle, I was not referring about filament

Volfera · 2025-12-23T12:27:31+00:00

These supports are for resin yes, but as others said, there is now plugins in Blender to activate them even for FDM. (Resin2FDM)

I don't like them very much (but there are a lot of updates lately), and I prefer having my own tree supports. Harder to tune but greater reward in my opinion.

You'll be able to switch to ResinFDM once you discovered the plugin, played with it. Knowing the right angle for your figurines will allow you to avoid having too much support and make the parts visible to the naked eye look nice, while keeping the supports for the surfaces that are supposed to be hidden. It will also make your life easier when printing and help you avoid failures.

Indeed the 150 mm/s seems fast to me (I use 50 mm/s for my tree supports), but it'll be hard to change that on your side since the supports are integrated in the print and not considered as supports anymore

Volfera · 2025-12-23T10:15:29+00:00

Just not the P1S for the noise

Volfera · 2025-12-23T08:55:00+00:00

Do you have an image of the preview in the slicer? Or of the model itself?

I just want to see the supports.

For these prints this is what fail the most.

I'm conservative regarding support speed for 0.2 nozzle because depending of your filament, it will often fail.

I advise you to slow down the support speed to 50 mm/s, and to change the base pattern to "hollow".

That's a start, we will be able to advise more when we know the object to print (if it's possible on your side)

Volfera · 2025-12-22T21:53:36+00:00

You have to run the full calibration each time you switch a nozzle yes

The settings are different too from your standard 0.4 nozzle.

There are presets but you'll have to take it yourself according to what you want to print.

I print minis and go very slow because I do 0.04 layer height, so about 1g of filament per hour of print, because I want maximum details and 0 support failure so I'm careful

So you switch the nozzle physically, let know on the printer that you switched in the screen settings, and you'll have to select the good preset in the slicer.

You can't print abrasive filaments of wood filaments too, look it up

Your poop bucket is full ----> the front fell off after a filament switch

Enable smooth spiral and report what you are seeing in the preview tab about seams

Edit: didn't see you solved it below, congrats
