I haven't really expected much since this is the first time I've tried ASA, I just printed a simple flow test on my textured plate. If anything I expected it to fail. But oh my, does that stuff stick. I hope the plate can handle acetone because I've tried everything else I could think of....
To achieve faster speed printing for functional and draft prints, I wanted to try a 1.0mm nozzle with my Neptune 3 Plus. This is the first time I replace a nozzle so I followed YouTube videos and replaced the nozzle. After replacing the nozzle I leveled the bed with manual + automatic leveling. The extruder seemed to be...
I love the YT channel Project Farm. It's unbiased, well thought out, practical, and numbers-focused (as much as a video can have without getting boring) approach is refreshing. Not every test is perfect, not every sample size appropriate, but this is a mechanical guy that knows his shit and is as curious about the results as the...
I have an ender 3 v2, upgraded the springs/leveling knobs, and slapped on an auto leveler. I do really enjoy the printer, but I've found between work and raising a toddler I just don't have the time to tinker like I thought I would. I assumed I would need to do general maintenance, but mostly be able to just print things fairly...
I went hunting for new bed surfaces the other day on AE (Ender 3 clone and Bambu X1C), and I veered off into other materials. That got me thinking about further possibilities....
like the title says i have an ender 5 pro and the bed is being weird. when i autohome it it works fine. but when i print the bed just stays at the top of the travel on the z axis for about the first 5-7 layers and then it will drop by over half a turn on the z stepper motor. leading to a large gap that cant be printed on. im...
I'm currently getting by with a mixture of Design Spark Mechanical, FreeCAD, and OpenSCAD for prototyping/editing files, I'd love to find a good alternative that isn't from a predatory company like Autodesk
