Print looks wierd. January 20, 2014 06:12AM |
Hello Folks.
i just got started with my printing and was wondering if some of you could help me.
Errors in the past:
Z-Wobble
Low Temp on Bed
Extruder stripping filament.
All these errors should be fixed now. i got correct bed temperature and my Z-wobble is almost gone ( Looks much better now) and the filament stripping should be gone now.
now im onto a new problem.
When im printing big objects ( i tried the Snap together lamp) like the lamp shade it begins and it looks nice. Then after a while it makes some form of bubble or wierd extrusion on the print( refering to the picture).
What to do about it ? have anyone been having this issue
?
Thanks in advance

It would be nice if we knew what we were looking at. Is it the side? Is it the top? It's not a clear image and it's not in your description.
About the perimeter order, you can question if it would work, or of course try it and see if it works

Oh sorry about that. Its the bubbling from the middle and up
It starts quite Nice with good layers.
I tried with external perimeters and doesnt seem to do it but i havent printed any large objects yet

Happycamper:
What do you do about overgangs and small/thin walls?
Im getting okay prints but it could be better.
Right now im trying to print some new parts for the printer and a bowden extruder. Maybe that helps

I think just by following the steps and that calculator, a lot of the little problems were fixed. I still have some things to work on, but it was a big help.
As for the thin walls and overhangs, I have been using a fan and it helps a lot. I am using PLA...
The parts I'm doing have such thin walls that they cannot be printed at shapeways in their White Strong and Flexible material. I can't remember the exact thickness of my walls but at shapeways if they are smaller then .7mm they won't print it. I was amazed when I began getting parts with walls this thin. Unfortunately, I can't show the parts yet do to IP stuff. Soon hopefully
