3dprinting

My resin printer was powered off with resin in the vat for about 7 months. Last night I turned it on, gave it a job, and I woke up to a successful print....

I’m getting increasingly frustrated trying to get my printer calibrated. I’ve done a bed calibration using screws_tilt_calculate, and that’s all nice and good. Got a bed mesh variance of 0.19mm which seems great....

so im a teen with not alot of money but i want to get into 3d printing, another community suggested the ender 3 original. it looks like a solid printer but who know im a noob after all. my budget is around 100$ or less. im looking into making mini figures and painting them or whatever nerdy thing i find. i know the budget is...

I got an Ender V3 S2 a month ago to build a darksaber for my kid for Halloween. Came out looking great. No complaints. I then did a couple of upgrades (bed springs, converted to direct drive, Klipper/Mainsail rather than stock firmware/UI) and it’s a lot easier to dial in bed tramming....

Hey everyone....

I’m glad this happened on the first layer of a 2-day print, at least....

I ran a selftest and the manual test and the X-axis keeps failing. I don’t know why....

Its printing PLA and you could smell it very strongly and was super cool to see

I’m looking at getting an airbrush kit for my prints and for my wife’s crafts. Can anyone recommend a good kit since I know nothing about it? All feedback appreciated.

(I’ve been informed that I had been told complete BS by the person trying to tell me that resin printing 1:72 wargame minis would be stupidly expensive. As such, my question here is no longer relevant.)...

Will be someone at the Formnext next week, or does someone want to ask/know something specific from the people who are gonna be there?

Filament is wound around a cardboard core and secured with straps. This allows the reuse of the spool sides, reducing waste.

I have a Sapphire Plus printer which I have heavily modified (out of the box it is a piece of junk). After finally changing the mainboard and installing Klipper I got it to print reliably. Of course the next thing I wanted to do was print fast. It quickly became apparent that the E3D V6 hotend and the anemic 3010 fans severely...

I installed it and everything was horrendous, I just want it uninstalled so I can get back to printing something more than spaghetti. I flashed marlin firmware for the 3d touch and I tried just removing all the files on the SD card and replacing it with the original files I’d made a copy of before changing to marlin firmware...

This video by dizekat shows a new kind of kinematic system based on string. It should be possible to make very fast but cheap printers like this due to low inertia of the system. Very interesting!
