2018/01/07 | 1,079 | 4,230 | <issue_start>username_0: I created my model in onshape then exported it to stl file then imported it to simplify 3d to convert to gcode.
However my model didn't go any in fill, it just continue to print layer after layer in the same fasion as the 1st layer.
Correct me if am wrong infill is used so that the middle of... |
2018/01/07 | 1,648 | 6,763 | <issue_start>username_0: Whenever a 3D printer that uses linear rails is announced (case in point: the [cetus](https://www.cetus3d.com/cetus-3d-printer.html)), the Internet (well... at least that corner of it dealing with 3D printing) gets abuzz with excitement.
I researched a bit the topic myself, and while I underst... |
2018/01/09 | 479 | 1,651 | <issue_start>username_0: After a long time tweaking my new 3D printer I solved all the unexpected errors and I can print succesful pieces but I am facing a "problem", they are over sized, I found this problem trying to print a Raspberry Pi Case and an smartphone case, the printed pieces are bigger than the objects.

2018/01/09 | 738 | 2,629 | <issue_start>username_0: I have a Monoprice Select Mini v2 and it came with a 256 MB SD card. I have a bunch of 16 GB cards. I have made sure that the new SD card has a FAT32 filesystem. I copy the gcode file onto this card and when I put it in the printer, it can't find any files!
And yes, the file is at the root lev... |
2018/01/10 | 1,274 | 5,045 | <issue_start>username_0: I have really strange problem. Thing is that my print (first layer) started ok, not good nor perfect but ok and everything was going well but then all of a sudden, near the end of a print, quality drops drastically. I'm not really sure but I think this happened because of under extrusion. I'm n... |
2018/01/10 | 509 | 1,947 | <issue_start>username_0: I am still at calibration stage and need some info from the PCB. I connected the USB and ran Repetier. The PCB wants to talk at a higher baud rate than my serial port says it can do. I tried setting the serial port to its highest setting 125k and reduced the PCB baud in Repetier setting to 125k... |
2018/01/11 | 727 | 2,807 | <issue_start>username_0: I'm relatively new in the field of 3D printing and design. By now I've created and printed some technical objects with TinkerCAD, but now I've a task, which I don't know how to solve.
I have the following model as STL-file:

2018/01/11 | 1,073 | 4,035 | <issue_start>username_0: As first layer is so important, I am looking for an easy way to generate the gcode to print just the first layer.
I see that with Slic3r you can cut from a Z
But for test purposes I prefer just selecting a number of layers to be generated so I can easily generate different "first layer(s) tests... |
2018/01/12 | 1,176 | 4,379 | <issue_start>username_0: Googling 'HDPLA' has so far availed me very little.
<http://3dinsider.com/what-is-pla/> indicates that /all/ modern PLA is 'high density' compared to 'the early days'. But a fellow at the local makerspace indicated that he was specifically using 'HDPLA', with [he claimed] markedly better prop... |
2018/01/12 | 1,315 | 4,831 | <issue_start>username_0: I've just finished building a new printer and I wanted to take advantage of a 32 bits board I ordered some time ago. The board is an MKS SBase 1.3
I've been researching the Smoothiware firmware but somehow I'm not convinced by it yet. One of the things pulling me off is the Z-Probe behavior. O... |
2018/01/13 | 911 | 3,762 | <issue_start>username_0: Here is my understanding of Coasting: Coasting stops extruding early in a move so that the string itself will finish the layer.
Here is my understanding of Combing: Combing reduces the need to retract during travel moves by making sure that the nozzle oozes where you want it to on the way to t... |
2018/01/15 | 1,138 | 4,350 | <issue_start>username_0: I'm attempting to model and print a globe. The semi-circular arm that holds the globe has an outer diameter of 98mm and inner diameter of 92mm, so the arm is fairly thin. The arm has a small hole on either end that fits around a protrusion at each pole of the globe to hold it in place. The hole... |
