Heating bed to 110 takes a looong time..Normal?

This is the first time I've ventured to try a new filament type, since I typically print in PLA... I'm trying to heat the bed to 110 and it is taking what seems like forever! It gets to 109 and cannot seem to make it to 110! I see it bounce around at 109-108.8... Have others had issues with this? I'...

Re: Just setup OctoPrint. Any tips?

What settings are folks putting in the Octoprint profile for the M2? I wasn't sure if any of that info will matter in the way I plan to use it... I was thinking to simply mount the watched Octoprint folder from the computer I use S3D on and save my gcode to that folder from S3D...I'm assuming Octopr...

Re: Dual Extruder Settings in 2016?

Re: Dual Extruder Settings in 2016?

Thanks Jules! I've read allot of your posts on the dual extruders, and you are definitely an authority on the topic!! So if I plan on dedicating each extruder (for the most part) to a type of filament...say 0==PLA and 1==Ninjaflex, then the nozzle adjustment is set once. It seems like the only tedio...

Dual Extruder Settings in 2016?

I've been reading allot of the Dual Extruder posts this evening and I was wondering if the various scripts and tweaks are still necessary, today, when running Simplify3D with the Dual Extruders?
