As title says. Today I upgraded my Voxelab Aquila to a Direct Drive and as you easily can see I am in desperate need for a new fan shroud to make everything fit perfectly. Unfortunately I lost my fusion 360 file for the one I currently use. It uses two 4010 Noctua fans and as there was no fitting fan shroud out there I made one....
Hi everyone, just to put some content in this community, I thought that sharing my setup could be useful to some people!...
Just want to share one of my prints. Printer in Ender 3-S1 plus. Painted with Posca pens...
My wife is a phlebotomist. She requested a way to strap the blood tubes on her arm and this is what I came up with. She used it for the first time last night and was in love with it.
Looks like the prop makers of the movie used a lead screw coupling and bashed it together with some tubes and other parts. When I saw it I went like the Leonardo DiCaprio meme pointing at the TV.
Best I can tell, my z-seam after a hop is under extruding? I tried looking at all3dp’s troubleshooting page, but couldn’t find this specific issue. Can someone fill me in on the name of this so I can best Google it? I’d also be happy to take pointers, but I do try to be self sufficient.
I have been working on this Vase Wing OpenSCAD project for a bit but Im still new to OpenSCAD and looking for some tips before I carry on....

My Voxelab Aquila came with a standard glass printbed. So far I thought I had no issues. Recently I thought I will printing PETG a try. Result -> no chance to get that print from the bed without damaging one of both (of course I let I cool down first). But even before I had more and more adhesion problems. So after a few friends...
The guardsmen were printed from scans of the original 80s plastic kit the ogryns are scans of the 90s metal ones and the commissar is from cults3d....
Twisting it on hot and the nozzle fell to the bed. I thought “huh, guess I was turning it the wrong way…” Nope.
Printed this cylinder as part of a larger project and there’s a horizontal line that runs up most of the part. Not bad enough to scrap the project but I’m curious if anyone can explain what causes this. Using an Ender 3 printing PLA, Cura slicer.

How it started and how it ended...
It however does not have issues maintaining the temperature when it’s not actually printing. I can set my hotend to 215 before beggining my print and it’s happy to sit there....
Printables page - Thingiverse page...
I’ve read in several places that using back off speeds and clean nozzles can help. I’m running with a new nozzle. Travel speed 150, retraction speed of 20, print speed 50. I think some of these are just defaults with cura 5.4 but I get the same thing with a higher retraction speed. What else should I look at?
Context: this is my first printer and those are my first filament set
Now I need to learn how to play it…
I tried just about every suggestion here, but still couldn’t get an airtight print. This is transparent PLA. I’m going to play with my speeds and overlap to try to get it clearer, but it was dimensionally accurate and completely sealed the first try....
