Oh.. and a note about 64bit Windows and configuration files. I figure out the cause of my earlier confusion regarding the placement of config files. It appears that, if you start Kisslicer with no config files, the defaults that are generated are put in $(LOCALAPPDATA)\VirtualStore. Once this happens, copying new files to the the location of kisslicer.exe has no effect because windows has redirected Kisslicer to the other path. However, if you delete the generated files, Windows resets this setting allowing Kisslicer to load the correct files. This is a security feature of 64bit windows..

Oh.. So Extrusion Width is the parameter that drives the filament feed rate? Good to know.

Are you sure the correct filament is assigned to the extruder in the printer/extruders tab. Maybe you created a correct material profile for the 1.75 but you are not using it because the old one is assigned to the extruder.

Trying to get a handle on what I need to tweak to improve accuracy. The cables are definitely due for some tightening. I also noticed some flexing in the acrylic last night. I can see gap in the seam between the sides that grows and shrinks with movement of the carriage. Tonight I plan on chemically bonding all the seams. How does the stiffness of the printed case compare to the acrylic? Worth switching?

Been wondering also about what it would take to replace the gears in the extruder with belt drive. I would like to do this mainly to reduce the noise level. As it is now, the extruder is by far the noisiest thing on the printer. I like to work while the printer is running and if there are allot of retractions, it starts drilling into my head :-)

Funny thing about belts is that it took me a three tries to find belts that I liked (this one's too long, that one's too skinny, etc). The last set I ordered came from China (read, cheap and slow shipping) so I ordered ten :-). I will be the guinea pig then and try to come up with a belt driven extruder.
