Quote09zx-6r it looks like the bed is not level... causing the nozzle to touch the bed and stop the flow at the end of the nozzle untill it gets to a greater gap between the bed and nozzle...i had that happen to me when i first installed the e3dv6... but i also had made changes to the bed causing a need for releveling... but none the less, if your printing at the correct speed, then id look at be

Quotenophead I thought you said you were manually extruding? That looks like building an object from gcode, in which case the slicer sets the speed. I ended trying to print a 20mm box because what you said and that was the result, the one without infill printed just fine

Quotenophead Hosts normally work in mm/m. I normally test 3mm filament at 60mm/m so for 1.75mm that would be about 180mm/m or 3mm/s. That's what I'm getting

Quotenophead If you are manually extruding 30mm/s is far too fast for the extruder. Even if you were printing at 100mm/s the extruder would only feed at about 5mm/s. So what should I use as manual extruder speed in repetier?

I still cannot make my wades extruder to work with my E3D V6 lite 1.75mm, I already tried everything, even hsbontop's modified wades_block and gears but still missing steps when I manually extrude at 30mm/s or 40mm/s

Re: Extruder problems - 8 years ago

is there any other solution to this? I bought a E3D v6 lite for my nophead's mendel90 and now I'm back to the J-Head which is not working as good as it used to.

My first 3d printer - 9 years ago

So I just ordered my mendel90 kit directly from nop head and I have some questions: What PSU would you recommend to power it? I live in the U.S. What else am I going to need to make it work? (I'm currently reading the manual Any places you recommend to get PLA/ABS in the U.S.?
