Re: Annealing PLA
The problem is after they cool down. The flat pieces then start getting bend to them.

Re: Recommended Primers for PLA
I have an airbrush (very small spray gun). Would that work for a urethane primer?

Annealing PLA
When assembling larger pieces together, I am often finding bending as the PLA strands cool.
Is there any safe way to anneal the PLA to relieve that stress?

Recommended Primers for PLA
Does anyone have any primer recommendations for PLA? (any not to use?)
I am doing ship modeling. 1:350. Have build my own parts. I need to get rid of the line patterns. The lines are small enough that it looks like some kind of primer would do the work for me.

Spongy Walls
I am using an M2 with Simplify to create essentially a box. I have made the bottom 1/8" and the walls 3/32"
The bottom is solid.
The walls are spongy and crack.
Is 3/32" too small OR is can I fix this using settings?
Thanks.

Re: Hot end is totally clogged
My hot end is clogged. I have disassembled.
However, part of the filament extends from the hot end into the drive assembly, forming a locking pin.
I cannot remove the hot end from the drive assembly to clean it out.
How do I remedy that?
