What did you 3D print today?

Now I just need to buy some better filament and print myself some Nelspot goodies. 😁

FINALLY had more time to play around, and I got a decent print of that bunny I tried a while ago. There were 2 shifts from when I upped the speed during the print, but I was impatient, so I don't care. Lol.

I'm just glad that I'm finally figuring this crap out. Nozzle temp: 200*c, bed temp: 60*c, speed: 100, z-offset: -3.7.

Today I designed and printed a speed wheel for my TR50. It’s a perfect fit and with the modeled grooves, it’s impossible for it to slip around. Considering how I, um, borrowed this idea from Xemon, I'll be holding onto my design for personal use only.

I wouldn't use air spray on this build plate ... Keep it for glass plate bed.

Bed tramming (called levelling in the 3D printer community 😜) seam to be the issue. The "paper trick" is total bs, there are some nice calibration print you can watch it lay the first layer and adjust on the fly until it's the way you want it.

[Brokeass_baller]

Nozzle temp was 205*c, bed temp was 60*c. I'll have to check the parameters for speed and whatnot next chance I get to play with it. It's gotta be something simple that I fudged up.

Baller. My bad, fixed somewhat.

What was your print speed, bed heat, nozzle temp, ect?

[Brokeass_baller]

BrickHaus, kinda looks like you hit post mid-sentence. Lol

My biggest issue on my enders was the extruder step count. Its factory set to a default parameter, but your filament regularly under extrudes with default settings.

There is videos that explain calibrating the setting, but essentially if you command 100mm of filament feed, you should be able to cut your filament off and measure 100 mm of filament.

Edit: yep, I did end on a sentence i had to go, and I forgot


You may not have an issue if you don't have an ender. But its something I will always check.

The experts on the interwebs say I need to calibrate z offset, and maybe invest in a can of Aqua Net.

Looks perfect

[Brokeass_baller]

My first print! It's a rabbit!

More organizer 😁

I plan to machine them myself.

Once you prove fit and function, the online metal 3D printing places aren't too bad on cost and you'd get a really nice durable part. Good work!

I like 3rd from left. If you use the power feed shape, might you want some sort of mark on the knob to tell where the feed is pointed?
