3dprinting

Basically title, the top mount broke so I screwed the mount to a bench. Only seems to be happening with this filament though as I've been running this setup for at least 6 months.

I spent entirely way too much time trying to get one of these style extruders on my Ender 3. Maybe I picked a knock off without realizing it, maybe mine was just defective, I’m not entirely sure....

Looking to maybe upgrade my kid’s creality cr6-se, so we can move into the more exotic materials....

This is the base of a pumpkin. There is a little support where the over hang is a bit much to start. How did I get great smoosh on the support but not the first layer of the actual print?! They’re the same layer!

What software do I need to use to create a 3D wireframe of an object such an imported stl?...

Ive been trying to get my 3D printer to print properly since upgrading my Ender 3 Pro with an all metal direct drive hot end. I calibrated my esteps perfectly and they’re spot on, beds leveled although there is a bit of a dip in the middle, and my slicer has the right settings for this PLA that is new and just opened from the...

Hello, I’m looking for some help with my newly installed Creality Sprite Pro. I spent a few hours yesterday getting it installed onto my Ender 3 and getting my Klipper configs all up to date but for whatever reason once i moved on to setting my E Steps i noticed the printer would not extrude filament. I reseated the extruder...

I just changed my stock Ender 3 hotend to a Volcano to get back to a more durable printhead after wrecking my Creality Spider head and have gotten it to where I can print something monolythic (like a brick or boot dryer type thing that doesn’t have much actual detail) without much issue, but printing something with any detail,...

I know this is incredibly niche but if you need it, you kinda really need it. xD...

Bring my buddy at work

Printed with two PETG filaments on a glass bed with hairspray. Printed the black lines (with a custom end code that doesn’t turns off motors) then printed the white over it in a separate gcode (also with custom start with no homing). It even allows me to go with an exact and cut off hairs and blobs before laying the white....

How is this possible even with abl? I dont’ get it…

I just got my printer, got it all set up, followed all the instructions, and it looks like it should be working, but it’s not....

I knew it could get out of control, but turns out knowing is not experiencing it. It's just nearly 2 months since I got my first fdm printer and this is the result. 1 roll is finished 12 stacked to go.

Not sure if mini gaming and resin prints are welcome here, but I’m trying my hand at printing an extra-galactic space bug army and this is my first finished print. Printed on my anycubic photon ultra D2 in anycubic’s craftsman DLP grey resin.

Look at the following image and take a second to think about how you would create a 2D sketch of this shape in CAD with the goal of recreating the profile in a 3d printed part like my end cap....

What is the groups focus? I moved to Resin a couple of years ago and my filament printer is in the closet gather dust… but I might break it out one day.

While I’m waiting for more nozzles to arrive in the mail, I’d thought I’d ask the new community here for their thoughts on my issue with the Swiss Micro All-Metal hot-end. Since upgrading to it, I haven’t noticed a remarkable difference between it and the stock one in terms of nozzle wear and clogs. I’ve reassembled...
