I'm sorry, I mean I use that setting for Slic3r, not firmware. Using 0.35 was giving me visible gaps between extrusions. The extruder's steps/mm and filament diameter are correct and no increase in flow rate seemed to help. I have virtually eliminated backlash as well. Changing the nozzle size did wonders, everything else works fine.
What intrigues me is that the quality drops so quickly when ch

Hey guys,
i am having trouble with infill settings less than 60% (rectilinear).
While prints with 60% infill create a beautiful looking lattice, As soon as I go to 50%, though, it looks like the filament "curls up" instead of sticking to the layer below. All other parameters are the same.
Here is a collection of photos of both tries, you can easily tell which is which.
Some data:

I see, that makes sense! I haven't bought the motor, so I don't have a feeling for its power just yet! But 1.75mm filament seems to be about the same price as 3mm one and easy enough to get, so I might just aim for that from the start.
Funny you should be the one to reply to my post, I'm currently designing my own printer, after your Mendel90! Designing everything from scratch, though, can't wa

Hello!
I have the RepRapped parts to make the Universal Mini Extruder, which is originally designed with 1.75mm filament in mind. I don't have physical access to the parts right now so I would like to ask,
is it possible to modify my existing parts to take 3mm filament instead of 1.75mm? Will this be as easy as drilling out the holes which the filament goes through?
(I will most probably buy a
