I'm trying eSUN PETG on M2 with E3D v6, .60mm nozzle. Three consecutive failures within 0.25 mm Z height of each other. All at Z~3mm. I'm very happy with print quality up to that point. (Layer thickness set to 0.25mm) Failure is air printing accompanied by "clunk-clunk" extruder motor sound ". Tear-...

I'm planning a flexible filament test run on my vertical mount filament drive, and need advice on S3D settings and bed surface treatment. Also, recommended model to print.

24V M2 with E3D V6. Red 1.75mm SainSmart Flexible TPU

Here's the STL files. Also needed are: *(1) M5 20mm screw *(1) M5 nut with same thread pitch as screw *(2) M3 25mm screws (To attach filament drive to extruder motor) *(2) M3 15mm screws (To attach filament drive to extruder motor) *(2) M3 20mm screws (To attach clamps to Body) *(2) M3 nuts (Inserte...

The first photo in my initial post shows that.

I've been printing with my Vertical Mount Filament Drive on my MakerGear M2 using E3D V6.
I'll post STL files, list of the few parts needed, and instructions, tomorrow (July 7)

Download file "everything" & install. If it can't find them, they ain't there. A safe site for downloading everything & lots of other stuff Is https://ninite.com/?source=updaterclient

This has a good chance of making printing with "soft" filament more reliable. Same for ABS, etc. Also makes hot end maintenance less of a pain. http://forum.makergear.com/viewtopic.php?f=10&t=2454 And, after reading Jim's post above, I may be able to modify the design so the vertical mount filament ...

I have to ask a question about how the Bed Leveling Wizard works Many of us ignore the S3D bed leveling wizard entirely. The 3-point design of the bracket holding the glass plate and bed heater on the M2 makes it most convenient to just put the nozzle directly on top of each of those three points i...

i dont think they can do anything with the time. its all over the board. some people get results that are slow, some are fast and all at different rates that vary with the print. i am consistently 20-40% longer to print than what it says. A step in the right direction would be to delete the time es...

Here's the other 5 photos.
How do I avoid having them cropped by phpBB?
