Printing Ribbon Bracket Bridges
October 23, 2013 08:55PM
I've been printing a set of parts for my second mendel 90, but I can't seem to print the ribbon bracket bridges. My printer bridges fine on all the other pieces, but I guess the ribbon brackets are just too long. Any tips on getting my settings right to print these? I read that you should lower feed rate and flow rate and then lower the ratio between flow rate and feed rate, but it didn't seem to help too much. I then tried using the bridge cool feature in skeinforge, setting it to 5 degrees. That helped a bit, but I still can't print the ribbon brackets. Thanks for any help.

They need to be printed with support material because the bridge is so close to the bed is always sags due to the heat from it.
