Thank you for the tip! I just checked, it looks like it was disabled so that wasn’t my issue. I wonder why it was causing you issues though
It is PETG. That’s good to know. I’ve got a few more prints on the docket so switch to gyroid and see how that goes. Thanks for the tip!
I’ll have to go back and look at the slicer settings, but I can tell you the info is much faster than the wall just watching it go. Would you recommend upping the flow rate or my better to slow down the printhead speed?
Good call I’ll have to take a look. I wish I could’ve copied the profile from the Creality slicer into Prusa Slicer, but creality keeps crashing.
Thanks for the other tips. I’ve tried a cold pole with the last filament to see if we could get anything out of there and I think we should be good, but you never really know.
As far as the rest of it, it seems to be happening with every filament I slice in Prusa slicer.
This was a brand new filament I had opened from Micro Center, it’s just their generic inland filament and it looks like the humidity in my dry box is about 16% after running it through my dryer. Maybe it’s too dry lol.
To be honest, I didn’t think about replacing the nozzle that’s probably a good idea. I got this printer from an auction site used so I can only imagine it’s the original nozzle from who knows how long ago
Sorry for the potato quality picture. I really thought we were over this since I tune the vref, but I guess not.
Do you guys have any idea why my info would look like this but all the walls on the printer are fine? I assume if it was a clog nozzle it would be inconsistent.
I’m considering an a change at point as well. The v2 has been great but finicky is a perfect description. Any reason you were thinking Bambo Labs instead of a Prusa?
Of course! This should be the original link. I think my issue was slightly different, but hopefully this helps. My stepper motors were over heating and skipping steps. If it looks like that might solve your issue, this article helped with my ender 3
Thank you! I appreciate it!
Thank you guys for pointing out the vref issue in my last post! I got it adjusted, and they were all fairly high so now they should be dialed in. While I was in there, I figured I should probably calibrate the extrusion steps as well.
I’ve got a couple larger projects coming down the pipeline. But if I can go off of this cube, I think I’ll be in good shape.
Thank you, i’ll do some digging!
Oh man, you should have seen me looking for the HDMI ports. I was very confused until I realized my mistake. Turns out that there’s more than one kind, who knew🤷
I’ll have to give that camera connection a second look lol
I just picked up a pi4 b today and was tinkering with octoprint.
So far it looks great, i just haven't figured out how to get the pi camera module 3 working quite yet. The stream from octoprint just constantly tries to load.
I’m excited to try some prints with it soon!
No, that’s a new one.
Would greasing my gantry screw help?
If I’m missing steps due to heat is the only solution a new motherboard?
I left the print over the weekend and I came back to spaghetti. It looks like something, caused the printer to push the print off its base like it was a poorly leveled bed?
I still have to watch the camera footage to see what failed, but I hope you guys get a chuckle out of the spaghetti monster like I did.
Does this hobby ever get easier or is it always like getting kicked in the nuts by Ronaldo?
Filament some how leaked up and burned on. I just don’t have it in me to keep tinkering. I just want to print
Is there any reason that little silver part of the extruder wouldn’t move and start clicking while printing when printing at 205 in PLA. It seems to turn just fine without any filament in there otherwise.
I cleaned out a nozzle clog, but is it possible there’s junk in the hot end stuck?
Resolution: Thanks for your help everyone! It ended up being a nozzle clog that I didn’t get all the way out. I ended up heating the printer up and doing the cool down trick. That seemed to work as a last ditch effort before buying a new nozzle.
It looks like my perimeter speed is 40 mms and my infill is 50mms
