I'd like to have you test some settings if you'd like to have a try. Edit the first layer height to be 0.2mm, print speed of first layer to be 10mm/s. Increase bed temperature to be 55-60C to provide better adhesion for the first layer. Enable Print Shells in optimal order can provide better bindin...

Thanks Vicky, I'll give those settings a go and see if it makes a difference.

Amazing work!

Sure, the file is too large to attach here as a zip, I have put it on my dropbox here images of the first layer printing here This issue is not just limited to this model and I believe this also contributes to a similarly bad finish on the top layer too, the top is harder to confirm as I'm not usual...

I've noticed that I get different results for the first layer solid fill dependent on the direction of travel of the extruder. The easiest way to describe this is to imagine printing an item where the bottom layer is a square, I have found that I get terrible infill if the print head starts at the t...

Wow! This is truly amazing, thanks for posting. Would love to see some pics of the unfinished pieces.

Forum member mhayduk has printed with it. I recall that it was a struggle. Don't know where he ended up with the stuff. I have a couple samples, but have never tried printing with it. You might try messaging mhayduk (Matt) to see what his experience was. Thanks, I'll wait a few days to see if he sp...

Does anyone have any experience with any of the Igus Iglide 3D printing filaments? Particularly, how it prints (I'm using an N2) and also how it performs in the real world. This is a specialist engineering filament designed for load bearing applications. There's a lot of information on various sourc...

This may not be overly intuitive but it is a really handy feature, thanks to all and thanks for the explanation Jetguy

That is so cool! Great work on the modelling and the finished piece.

My first thought is not the buildplate, it's the fact this Spring is all over temp wise. The thing you have to understand is you do not have a patent protected chamber temp control and even heated airflow. That's literally the line in the sand between a over $10k+ patent protected printer and a con...

Did anything ever happen with the Camera? the Touch screen has an option for "camera" when I play with my N1, but plugging in a USB camera didnt actually do anything. The camera integral function is still under development. Will release it soon. Now that the Pro2 Series printers have been...

Great project, I look forward to seeing how it looks when it's finished. The level of detail is astounding!

Currently there is no way to find out the print settings from .gcode file. We are trying to develop the function to add settings into .gcode file and find a way to export the settings out. This would be such a great feature, I'm still new to the 3D printing world and I am currently writing my setti...

Great to see some more mechanical engineering projects, I look forward to seeing how this progresses. Keep us informed of your progress with the support material, I'm working on some test prints for a motorcycle throttle body in my [limited] spare time and the support material is the biggest hurdle.

I have been thinking along the same lines. A cube could be printed with almost no support until it gets close to the top surface, then the support could form at an angle to support the upper surface. It would also be good to be able to locally increase support density in certain areas like around ho...

Hi Vicky, Mine is a single extruder machine. Z-hop is not enabled, I realise this could help alleviate the issue but I feel it would be simpler and more effective if there was a setting to tell the extruder to move around the perimeter of the model rather than straight across freshly printed section...

What was the outcome of this? I also have the issue of the nozzle hitting supports and knocking them off. I have also noticed that the nozzle hits inner parts of the model, not just support parts. I left a print running last night and it was knocked off the bed by the nozzle hitting. The shape of th...

I'd like to add my support for this feature. It's hard to go back to navigating with the mouse when you're used to using a 3D motion controller.

I had the same thing happen yesterday. I was using a cheap brand of filament and it looks like it broke between the gear and the white tube above the hot-end and the filament continued to be drawn in and around the gear until it jammed. I upped the printing temperature on the filament by 5 degrees t...
