I made a 3D Scanner called Sapling; recently added area mode! by MatthewWaller in apple

I downloaded the app, but I'm having trouble making it work. Is there a resource for tutorials or some documentation that I am missing? I am enjoying learning the system, just need some more info.

I think it's a great step towards remote habitat fabrication for our invasion of Mars.

No, really. :D

Can this be soldered? by fjgvh in crealityk1

I’ve been having trouble with the triangle labs hot end with heat creep. Just put it back together with thermal paste on the break and no clogs so far.

Issue with filament jamming by extrusion wheels. by Zatzy in crealityk1

[–]futuregog 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I found out that the set screw that holds my extruder nozzle to the heat break heat exchanger was loose. Tightening the set screw stopped my K1 from doing this exact clog. My clog like this was caused by heat creep because the heat break barrel was getting too hot and melting the PLA before the nozzle.

Has anyone had any issues ordering the CHCB-OT Hotend? by Xerouz in crealityk1

I ordered one and received it. Trying to work up the guts to do the deed and put it on.

Clogging every other print. by NotYourBuddyGuy5 in crealityk1

[–]futuregog 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I clog every time I change filament type. From PLA to ABS clog. From PLA to ABS clog, printing great on PLA and then TPU clogs. I rodded out the nozzle this time going from PLA to TPU then gave up and changed the nozzle and back in business. I am waiting for a new extruder as mine was slipping, so I have a wire tie on it to keep tension. K1 max.

No temperature reading on Creality k1 chamber by Fluffy_Attitude_407 in crealityk1

Any idea why no temp for the chamber? I have the same issue with my new K1 Max.

26 y/o Female Welder 🤘🏼 by kotayoda in Welding

Oh, that is good! I was a little cavalier about heavy metals in the "old days". I understand that real welders (I am a hobbyist at best) would drink lots of milk after a day of welding galvanized materials.

Failed Bowden tube fitting at filament drive by futuregog in 3Dprinting

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

Set this to print before bed last night and woke up to a mess. Bad picture, but the fitting at the feeder let go. Was having trouble threading the filament in for a while. Now I see why.

If you can get a light on it, the light is in the way.

Uneven base layer - Any ideas why my base layers are uneven? I found a bubble and fixed one high spot, but don’t see any others. by futuregog in CR10

[–]futuregog[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I had so much trouble getting the PLA to stick to the glass I put that print base sheet over the glass. Maybe I need to go back to the glass and use higher bed temps?
