Re: About MakerGear Video

It would be great to see a bit about how the kit components and assembled printers are QC'd and tested. Also being able to get a glimpse of the manufacturing and production process would be of great interest for potential customers (like me).

Re: Show me your sub-100 micron prints!

Yeah, I don't expect to eliminate ringing with the M2, just hoping I can reduce it vs my current printer. Here is a screengrab of the model. You can see there are some prominent wrinkles along the cheeks, but obviously the print has ringing issues as well.

Re: Show me your sub-100 micron prints!

Yes, it is ringing as I mentioned in the post. Some of it is the actual wrinkles in the old man zbrush sculpture too. I will post a screengrab of the 3d model tomorrow. The ringing is one of the of the downsides of my other [brand must remain unnamed due to forum rules**] printer. Hoping the M2 will...

Re: Show me your sub-100 micron prints!

Here is an example of what I'm getting on the [UNNAMED PRINTER] at 100 microns. If I can consistently get something along these lines of quality on the M2 but with less ringing I would be a happy camper. Unfortunately the Dremel doesn't have any way to adjust Jerk and Acceleration settings in the fi...

Re: Show me your sub-100 micron prints!

Thanks for the replies everyone. I totally agree on the points made about the need for tedious calibration to get reliable results out of 50 micron or less prints, and in most cases a really good 100 micron part would make me very happy. I'm getting some surprisingly good surfaces out of the [UNNAME...

Hello all, After trying (and returning) the [UNNAMED PRINTER #2] printer and currently using (and keeping) the [UNNAMED PRINTER #1] I am considering getting a 2nd 3d printer. I would like something a little more robust and with a larger build area and have narrowed the choices down to the M2 and [UN...
