3D Printing Discussions, Questions and Debugging

What is the sheet that came with the overture filament? I use the mirror because my bed was warped when I first got it. I was thinking about putting the overture or stock ender sheet on the glass but the clips are too small.

The overture sheet has never failed for me. For glass like that, hair spray has also been extremely reliable.

don’t use red lock tite to permanently keep it level, young Joel did that once, young Joel made mistakes

Is it just me or does anyone else have the issue where the walls of the print don’t stick to the print itself… I’m using cura and it’s annoying as hell.

Too fix the above I have to print with 1 wall which in the print I want to do it screws it all up :grimacing:

Any tips?

I only have that issue with tpu, it sounds like a tolerance issue? What printer do you have?

Ender 3 :grin:

Basically you have to get the printer to either print the perimeters closer together while extruding the same amount of plastic, or extrude extra plastic while keeping the perimeter spacing the same. I use prusaslicer, and my solution was to set the nozzle size setting to 0.35mm. You can also tweak your extrusion multiplier/e-steps.

Just increase the flow for the brim(only for the brim), it will stick so well.

well, that was bound to happen. I would have used supports(but only touching build plate)

Failed again fully supported overnight.

I flipped upside down this am and trying to print that way.

I’ve been considering blue loctite on mine. Good to know red hurt you.

@DEEIF show me a photo of what you’re referring to please. Are concentric walls not touching eachother like this:

Or more like the infill not connecting to the walls?

This isn’t working, for some stupid reason with it flipped cura decided that it needed to fill in the mounts for the blower fans, it’s making a weird solid instead of a removable support, wtf

Do you preview layer by layer in cura after slicing?

It will show you if it’s going to fill in anything you don’t want filled.

Yeah after about 30 min printing I was wondering why I had a weird shape. So I checked the layers

Needless to say, but maybe check the layers before the print :sweat_smile:

That looks almost exactly like how my prints are :joy:

Did you do an estep calibration on your machine?

No, I’ll do that tomorrow :grin::love_you_gesture:t4:
