Re: Suddenly getting hairy stringy prints

My print shown is the hip of the Braq dragon, in Polymaker's PolySmooth, I'm about to test some retraction and fan settings for this material, there's stringy and hairy but this is ridiculous.

It's a pity you can't fit him with a taser or pepper spray to get them back, perhaps a capacitor discharge on a flexible PCB track.

:-) it's a language barrier problem, some things including humour don't translate correctly, it can be tricky between English and Dutch, but English and American is a whole new can of worms :lol:

Re: Has anyone used NinjaTek Cheetah?

Yes but you may get some drips, another thing to do is add a little sewing machine oil to reduce filament friction in the Bowden tube, the nozzle heat is high enough to burn it off and I've not noticed any real degradation of the printed part.

Speed wise I would stick to 30mm/s for all and reduce retractions to about 1- 2mm enough to take the pressure off.

Re: Simplify3d basic guide

In S3D, On the machine control panel there are 3 macro buttons you can program, I did set them for atomic clean temperatures so Macro 1was heat nozzle to 210, macro 2 was heat nozzle to 96. Was ideal for atomic cleaning when having to do a lot of cleans with a messy filament. But because i didn't kn...

Re: Simplify3d basic guide

probably one for neotko but has anybody got an idiots guide to programming and saving the micros?
and does anybody know if it is possible to turn off the head cooling fan (on the Wanhao Di3+) its G-code after the print has finished. Cheers, Izzy

Re: Keeps clogging, filament pulls out faster than stepper motor pushes

Another good bit of kit is an electric adjustable heat hot air gun, I've used it a couple of time to help unclog micro nozzle of 0.1 and 0.15mm, a lot easier to use than a flame. You can precisely control the heat to soften and remove.

Re: UM2 service parts / upgrade.

I can't see the details in the link,
The thread talks about tin and non tin side from the float glass manufacturing but I can see a link to the improved flatness glass.
Sorry to be blonde, ;-)
