I don't clean mine but it doesn't affect the issue I got
fossil valve
Clogs are literaly caused by factors like not cleaning 😆

Clogs are literaly caused by factors like not cleaning 😆
One of MANY
Most of the time it's not the primary reason for clogs
fossil valve
😆 yeah but its one of the main ones i clean my machine once a month had it since release and never ever had a single clog
Whats your largest print?
Tbh I've got a print block atm need some inspiration
umbral edge
Just because you do something and don't have an issue, doesn't mean it's associated with the issue
Mine is an issue with the filament swapping function and how it interacts with the bore surface of the coldend
It's not a smooth surface, so there can be friction issues in the coldend that prevent the new filament from being able to be pushed thru the nozzle assembly
fossil valve
What machine you got?
fossil valve
Wait i thought they cancelled the multi color fillament
As far as i knew it wasn't available yet
umbral edge
Kinda not really
fossil valve
Heard the lights on batch 2 are way better mine suck
Can't see shit 😆
My b didn't realise you were using multi color
umbral edge
It's not great but it's better
umbral edge
My b didn't realise you were using multi color
I'm not
Just changing out filament
Which I do a lot
As I use a large variety
fossil valve
My biggest ick with the centauris is i can't remove the bowden tube to change fillament very annoying had a peice of fillament snap inside and was a nightmare getting it out
umbral edge
Just gotta push the little lip at the base of it fown
fossil valve
ok it is me thank thats the problem fk 😆 cheers

... I opened a wine bottle in the same room as my resin printer and its VOC monitor

oop
fossil valve
Been thinking about getting a resin printer for visors and jems for prints any recommendations
hazy nimbus
dang it, finally got time to construct the enclosure to finally test the printer, now i notice they sent me parts that don't fit ;_;
printer return period is almost over and I haven't gotten to test it once yet bc something always comes up
fossil valve
dang it, finally got time to construct the enclosure to finally test the printer...
Wouldn't it be easier to glue acrylic sheets together and sit it ontop of the machine?
Unless it's really big that is
Is it a bed slinger?
hazy nimbus
buying sheets that large would be really unwieldy, probably more expensive, have no opening for easy access without additional work, and wouldn't come with extra lights, extraction fans/-tube, etc.
got the saturn ultra 4 16k plus cleaning/curing station under a slanted roof, so the enclosures are by far my best bet for the price

I mean, there's always the option this guy did 😂
I wouldn't call it EASY...

Wouldn’t call it too hard just expensive

Was gonna say that's some SERIOUS ventilation setup, but then I saw the box of Photopolymer resin and realised those are resin printers. Makes a lot more sense now
umbral edge
You can get the same thing done with plywood, silicone caulking, weather stripping for sealing the door, some cheap dimensional lumber and wood screws
For like
1/10th the cost
Oh and some ducting with a fan
The only important thing is that it's negative pressure
Doesn't have to be airtight
If it's just slightly negative, there will be 0 leaking

dude i was having trouble getting it to print good
and i crank my temps all the way to 280

Yo asking for some advice on something I've never done before am currently printing the peices for noble six armor from halo reach should I wait and test fit everything first or should I start to prime the parts? Cheers have never done armor before mostly prop guns and helmets

Was the model premade for 3D printing or did you make the model yourself?

Its from galactic armory so it's premade file

In that case as long as you have the correct print settings you should be fine without needing to test fit. Although It's still good practice to do make test prints anyway since that's a lot of fillament
fossil valve
Ok cheers ill hold of priming for now

Time to say goodbye to my a1 mini

Time to say goodbye to my a1 mini
Did you eat the linear rails again

Can anyone tell me if certain geometry of a 3D print can cause multiple jams over and over
Spent 3 hrs trying to print a peice flat surfaced but width wise it's a triangle still simple enough
After the first layer printer jams every....single....time
Started a new print simple and works
Slamming my head against the wall

Got a new setup for my printer
The room it was in now has one of my besties living in there, so its finally out here in the hall
Got this little table for it but stuff didn't really fit well on it
Chopped off all the stuff from the top
And modified the dryer a bit, and added a little new flair to the printer
Now it's perfect:3
Currently making an hrt box for aforementioned bestie
It will say transmission fluid on it

That the cc1 with mods?

That the cc1 with mods?
Ya
I'm still pissed about the cc2 having mmu but not the cc1
fossil valve
Cool what mods did you do? I've been meaning to mod mine

the wedges for the top and door are great if you want it queter
cuz
you dont need to run the case fans
with pla

fossil valve
I always leave my stuff closed even with pla never had issues also its in a room far enough away
fossil valve
you dont need to run the case fans
Didn't even know you could do that

no need to use fusion
whole wind
Oh that works too
umbral edge
Oh that works too
Much faster, that fusion function will take hours sometimes to compute if you don't have a higher end licence
whole wind
Sounds about right
umbral edge
yall ever spend way too much time designing your reference surfaces? like i only needed an "H" shape and the two little bits that poke up
but i went and did all this shit
idk why
umbral edge
To anyone who cares
The centauri carbon mmu is releasing around April 30th
And it is a full head swap, and I don't think you will be able to have top panel on while using it
I'm sure someone will mod it though
Just another ecc riser

Official?

How do you know?
If you ask elegoo via email they will tell you
It should be last week of april

Yey

Ahhhhhhh I want it sooo bad
I placed a reservation for the early bird price, I REALLY hope it doesn't turn into a scam
vernal ginkgo
If you ask elegoo via email they will tell you
Saw it on their website, I’m surprised of the cost. I want it but cant get it right now since I’ll be moving to a different house and its a pre order
umbral edge
Oh no, we were talking about the centauri carbon mmu
vernal ginkgo
Oh no, we were talking about the centauri carbon mmu
Its probably a good design
Loved the price
