The Bondtech extruder is high on my list of things to upgrade to, but for now, I got what I got. I got a disappointing email from customer support who said to contact the reseller I bought my printer from and basically told me "Don't print without a raft" That said, I am managing to get my...

Hey all, I had some initial success with the LokBuild. It does hang on to ABS pretty tight. On a larger print I started getting warping at the edges. On further investigation I determined that one of my big problems is despite several attempts I have not leveled the bed. I just put in a support tick...

I used to use PET tape with ABS juice on my older printer. It worked great for me for smaller parts but when I started printing larger parts it wasn't enough. PEI was definitely a step up for me. It was working well for me, up until the other day when my sheet tore in half when I pulled a part off t...

So I have a Lokbuild surface and a spool of eSun ABS+ arriving tomorrow for Amazon.



I will let you all know how it shakes out.

Zemlin - I am using Inland ABS. I saw one of your recent posts about ABS+ and I'm actually going to give it a shot soon. The problem is I still have 4 spools of this stuff sitting around that I don't want to go to waste. ;) I'm printing with a bed temp of 110 and nozzle temp of 260. I'm doing some R...

Hey all, I've been printing a lot of ABS recently. I've never had luck with the BuildTak surface with ABS. I bought a thin sheet of PEI from UItem (as suggested by a post on here). I've managed to get my prints to stick, but I've had to squash the first layer down quite a bit. Its hard getting the p...

That sounds super sweet!

I'm going to read up on the stepper driver upgrade too. Looks interesting (and not very expensive). Thanks for the tip.

I'd love to hear other stories.

I was debating getting the Bondtech dual extruder upgrade for my N2+ Dual extruder. I've seen a lot of users here have success with it. I'm curious how much you can safely increase the speed of printing with the lighter extruder? Does anyone have any custom speed/accel settings they use that work fo...

I was curious if your company was looking into patching the firmware on your devices in case they are vulnerable to the new WPA2 security vulnerability. https://www.krackattacks.com/ I would hate to see anyone use your product as an attack vector into a network. Hopefully, its an easy patch to integ...

I will take a look and see if the head is tight. If thats not it, I'll give the slower speed a try. Thanks for the advise!

I printed this recently. This is the first time I've printed something with overhang details that the IdeaMaker software did not automatically generate supports for. The squares and circles down the middle are supposed to be smooth. You can actually see other areas near them that also have wavyness....

+1 Like.

Can I sign an NDA too?! (Kidding....)

I've been seeing various implementation of Variable Layer Height. It keeps a balance between thin layer heights for detailed areas (like curves in the Z direction) while allowing for thicker heights for printing speed in less detailed areas. I would love to see this in IdeaMaker! http://hackaday.com...

Very good info. Thank you!

I was curious about this as well. The profiles in Ideamaker work great for the stock 0.4mm nozzle. Are there any profiles for the other nozzles available? (0.2, 0.6, 0.8?)

Has anyone tried Inland from Microcenter? I've seen a few people claim its made by eSun.

Its $15 per KG and local, both of which are pluses.

Thank you for the videos they did help.

I didn't have any luck with the steel wire, but when I rethreaded the filament in with the acrylic cover off, I managed to get it loaded.

I'm printing!!!! Thanks for the quick response!

Hey all, I just got my shiny new N2 plus tonight. I just tried to load filament and the extruder started clicking. I took the acrylic plate off and experimented with pushing the filament down manually. By the length of the filament I can load, it doesn't look like it even makes it past the heat sink...
