Re: Filament snapped above extruder gear???
So I just had the same spool break on me again. sigh, so frustrating. This time, it snapped above the extruder gear, AND there was a partial break inside the filament tube. Leads me to believe the breaks are already there? Pretty sure it isn't moisture absorbed as every other section prints fine, it...

well, my jaw dropped when one of the girls went to go get the print off. Good thing I didn't bring any sharp tools. but, I did have to re-level the bed a bit after that handling.

Okay, I tell the guys to put away the sledgehammer. Interestingly, the girls are rougher than the guys.......sthone wrote:NEVER pry prints off the glass without removing it from the printer first. I had a bad habit of doing this and over time I pretty much ruined the rail block on my Y rail.

Re: Testers Needed
Oooh, hopefully I get one of those extras. :) Does the new leveling kit make it easier to maintain level? Ever since I've put my printer in my office, I have other people handling my prints and some are not so careful on removing prints. If the prints are stuck, and they have to finagle the piece an...

Re: Filament snapped above extruder gear???
that is a cool use of the wood filament. I wonder if putting the spool holder on bearings would help reduce the stress? It seems free moving enough as it is though. I seen one out there on bearings.

I'm not using S3d for this, but wouldn't that setting just give me thinner walls altogether? My walls are good at 3mm +- 0.1mm. Not exactly - this is the thread I always go ...
