Re: Printing with Raise3D Pro2 - 3 years ago
Thanks for that DragonFire. I'll check out the 'circuses' (I like that description ) I have a feeling that the baseplate was extruded down (i.e. below the XY-plane) and the other bits up (i.e. above the XY-plane). Would that give the slicer problems? Incidentally, I print with 0.8mm nozzles, 0.88 extrusion width and 0.64 layer height. (Quick and dirty - but then, I am not printing ornamentsby Vagulus - General
Re: Printing with Raise3D Pro2 - 3 years ago
My apologies for not getting back to you for eighteen months. I guess I just gave up trying and stayed with ideaMaker. However, all good things come to an end. Right now I have a problem with ideaMaker. Here is what my part should look like Part as Designed and here is how ideaMaker slices it Part as Sliced ideaMaker leaves me with an unwanted and unsupported bridge (red, arrowed). I can'by Vagulus - General

Thanks folks. I'll try to get some Isoprop. Hard to do. It's all in hand sanitiser these days .by Vagulus - Printing

First Layer Adhesion - 3 years ago
My Raise3D Pro2 printer has BuildTak on the Printing Platform. My filament is eSun PLA+ 1.75 mm. Platform Temperature is set to 50C. Nozzle clearance from Platform at 'Home' is 0.2 mm. My first layer does not stick to the BuildTak properly (even with 3DLac PVA spray). There is always some material swaying around in the breeze (so to speak). Download the gCode here. How do I get my First Layeby Vagulus - Printing
Where do I get a Slic3r Manual - 3 years ago
I have a Slic3r Manual which, sadly, does not correspond to my version of Slic3r (1.3.0). It references settings I don't have and misses settings I do have. That's very confusing for a beginner. Where can I get a Manual for Slic3r v. 1.3.0? Thanksby Vagulus - General
What Shells are they talking about? - 3 years ago
Getting model ready to export gCode and I see this reference to 'Shells'. What 'Shells' are these? Come to think of it, what is this 'Manifold' thing? Come to think of it, where would I find this information in the Manual? Thanksby Vagulus - Printing

Re: Printing with Raise3D Pro2 - 3 years ago
Hi frankvdh Sorry about any 'one-liners'. Unintentional, I assure you. My postings are my best efforts to make the issue clear but I guess the only thing to do if I am not successful is to ask for clarification. Checking the gCode for a print (I am no expert in gCode) I found no 'T1' command. In inserted a 'T0' into the startup code and the model printed with the Left Extruder as it should.by Vagulus - General
Re: Printing with Raise3D Pro2 - 3 years ago
I am getting some action from my Pro2 but after reading Slic3r gCode it thinks for about 20 minutes before doing anything then tries to print with Right Nozzle. All the Slic3r nozzle settings are set to '1' which should be the default Left Nozzle. Currently my Right Nozzle is U/S awaiting spare parts so I don't get anywhere. I have tried changing the Slic3r Nozzle Settings to '2' but still it'by Vagulus - General
Re: Printing with Raise3D Pro2 - 3 years ago
I have been using ideaMaker for the past year and I am tiring of its inconsistencies. I am working on changing to Slic3r (not Simplify3D) but it's not working for me.by Vagulus - General
Printing with Raise3D Pro2 - 3 years ago
Would someone who uses Slic3r to create gCode for a Pro2 please guide me through the steps. My best effort loads into the printer but does nothing. There's something I've missed. Thanksby Vagulus - General
