I think this is the issue, but it looks like something is making the speed go too fast when I print this from kisslicer using an SDcard to print.

Thanks for this! I plugged in your numbers for extrusion width and upped my temperature. I have some improvement, but still having starvation issues but to a lesser extent. I believe the issue is something wonky in Kisslicer, because I have the speed set to 10mm/sec and the extruder head is really m...

I've had a .35mm nozzle in my possession for a couple of weeks and this awesome print inspired me to give it a try. After installing the nozzle and starting my print I noticed that the extruder was moving much faster than it was when I had the other stock 0.5mm nozzle. I am using kisslicer and print...

The eyes on he factory sign are backwards.

Can I just use my wood chipper instead of the expensive shredder?

Nice to meet you. How is the Wizard these days?

Does anyone have any tips on the best way to get the filament to go into the Bowden tube when being installed from a fresh roll? I Open the roller clamp lever and push the filament in the little gap and past the hobbled gear, but it seems like it doesn't like to find the hole in the aluminum bushing...

In addition to calibration, it is important to get the filament average diameter calculated. If your filament is extruding too thick the walls of the fan shroud will be fatter than needed and the fan will be too tight. The fan itself is a standard size that meets strict dimensions, so it probably di...

Do you have a nice flat part bottom with little or no seams or grooves in it, no issues with prints coming loose, no issues with warping or layer separation?

If it isn't broke, don't fix it.

I used WD-40 300052 Specialist Dirt and Dust Resistant Dry Lube PTFE spray on mine, and it worked extremely well. This product had a lot of positive reviews, so I gave it a shot. I like that it's clean (invisible) and does not attract dirt.

The thermistor leads are very long and thin and so they don't conduct much heat all the way to the solder joints. The solder joints connect them to a comparatively heavy gauge wire (compared to the thermistor lead), which acts as a heat-sink for any heat that comes from the thermistor lead. It wicks...

Also, can this be configured such that you can wipe the nozzle at the end of every layer? I think Captain Starfish mentioned that that is what the up printer does. If I were making such a thing, I'd put a blade or something that rapidly wiped across the nozzle tip so it would not take extra time. I...

even more awesome is when the solder melts and the heater wire comes loose and shorts out against one of the other wires, which (depending on the random luck) will blow up:

a) A fuse on the RAMB0
b) The Thermistor
c) The RAMB0
c) Any combination of the above.

Don't solder those connections!

I think you might have some other issue going on, because I have never had to recalibrate after simply removing the glass plate. If that were true, simply washing the plate between prints would be a problem for every person here because I have never seen anyone recalibrate between prints and have ne...

A way to solve your cold bed issue would be to get a second bed piece. Step 1: Prepare Bed A for Printing Step 2: Prepare Bed B for Printing Step 3: Install Bed A on Printer Step 4: Start Print of part on Bed A - - - - - Step 5: Remove Bed A with finished part Step 6: Install Bed B on Printer Step 7...

I have an SUV, so it fits on the floor with the rear seat pushed up and it is so close to the center of gravity of the car, it doesn't tip or sway. The footwell holds it from sliding in any direction, so I never had to consider strapping it in.

I put the arms inverted line that and some rubber bands to hold the cheapskates down against the base. If you drive carefully and avoid sudden braking, or turning, or acceleration, it will be fine and will not even lose calibration.

If you make multiple pieces at one time on the bed, you can use your modeling program to combine all of the parts into a single part with a custom "brim" you build into the model. I've had luck positioning several pieces as if they are on the build plate and then adding a 1mm thick "b...

What length screw is to be used when assembling the hot end? page 161 8-25-2014 9-52-04 PM.png page 162 8-25-2014 9-52-25 PM.png By the time you get to that step, there's probably only one group of screws left in your unused parts that would possibly fit in this location. There were many places in ...

Is it possible to just feed a new roll behind the one that is ending and just let the new one push the old one down the Bowden tube? The retracts would not work, but once what was in the line was cleared it would be ok, right?

Brian, that's definitely not normal. I have vapor smoothed a lot of ABS parts, and after a few hours of off-gassing, they go back to regular ABS hardness. I also noticed that after vapor polishing, the parts have a pecular stink to them. I gather this is also something that does not normally happen...

3D Printing at the moment is at about the same state of personal computing as the Apple I was when it was released. Everything was sort of hand assembled by the end user and they had to tweak and customize everything and it was not very user friendly. Look where PCs are now. We all know that one day...

Hi, Here's a vid I made showing how to cold acetone vapor finish your ABS parts. The results are amazing :) Check it out: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h2lm6FuaAWI" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; How long does it take for the acetone to exit the finished part? I was playi...

I think the kit is good. Manual is also very good and clear. Things like cleaning powersupply is really for the retentive types (which is most of us). You end up stuffing the excess wires in there somewhere and never see them again :) Built in PSU is not convenient as then you cannot feed different...

I didn't have any issue at all with your question. I'll be doing a new spin of the manual soon and I'll try to be more clear with the power supply wiring. There's no way in hell I'm going to recommend that someone pop the supply open and clean up the wires. 4 would do it right and 1 would either el...
