I have the rc1 of the current new slic3r and I notice that since I upgraded, I have a really hard time getting support material to break away. It feels much more strongly attached and thicker. This is using the same PLA that I've been using for quite a while and I never had this issue before. Slic3r doesn't give a lot of settings for support material so I'm not sure what I can do to get the materby albill - Slic3r
How does one buy one of these frames? I'm in California in the US.by albill - For Sale
Did you sell this? I notice the ebay auction ended and the video was taken down. You're actually only a few miles away from me since I'm in Oakland.by albill - For Sale
You need a forum for your foldarap 2 work unless you're going to discuss it here. I'm planning on building a non-folding version as a 300 mm extrusion cube that incorporates your design ideas. I'm trying to think about the best way to do Z though.by albill - FoldaRap
How solid is this design? I was going to use the PG35L in the one I'm building right now.by albill - FoldaRap
The build proceeds (yes, one end isn't screwed in so I can slide other things on): I had a question. What are these holes into the middle of the extrusion cross section in the bases for? Nothing seems to screw into them but there are holes there...by albill - FoldaRap
I moved the 't' slot plastic out .5mm on the four impacted pieces. I printed the first one and it fits! If this works for all four, would you like me to submit the sketchup as a "misumi-sketchup" to your github as a secondary file? Misumi is the cheap extrusion here in the US that is 20-20.by albill - FoldaRap
It looks like with the current design, which has gone to a flatter 't' for the printed connections on the feet, I have four pieces that I need to figure out how to increase the gap on. and it turns out that your gap isn't 2 mm after all. It is 1.5 mm.by albill - FoldaRap
That said, the pieces that aren't made into triangular 't's seem to fit from the newest set:by albill - FoldaRap
I think the issue may be the extrusion size. How thick are the 't's on your extrusion? I'm using Misumi which has a 1.96mm or so thickness in the 't': and then I have my prints, where I measure the gap: I even have some pieces that another fellow made for me (from a slightly newer? rev, it seems), and they don't fit either: So...there is .4 to .5 mm more aluminum than there is gap. I'by albill - FoldaRap
Yeah but the misumi extrusion still doesn't fit in my pieces. :-)by albill - FoldaRap
Hmm... Well, I've never had any indications before that my machine wasn't well calibrated but I'm measuring 1.55mm on my ends. This is in PLA too. :-) That's odd. I'll try to figure out how I can address this. Since the end pieces are three hour prints, it is an interesting problem that takes time to check.by albill - FoldaRap
If you have any suggestions on altering the STL files to fit my 20-20 extrusion that seems to be thicker, I'd love suggestions. I've never made t-slot focused STLs before.by albill - FoldaRap
For the extrusion, I've gotten misumi 20-20 with 6mm slot. I notice that I can't quite get it to fit the printed ends so I got out the calipers. The gap on the prints for the slots to go in looks to be 1.5 mm. The thickness of the aluminum pieces that slide in (that make the 'T') seems to be 1.9 mm on my misumi pieces. Is the extrusion you are using slightly thinner, close to 1.5mm?by albill - FoldaRap
