Here is a city Ive created personally and printed in miniature (see lighter for reference) I'm really wondering what happened to some of the buildings (pic 1). Is it too much plastic or out of alignment?
I recently lost a screw on the part that hods the best to the rod which honestly i have no clue what it is called! (pic 2) Can i buy one at the local hardware store or do i have to order another and if i can get one at the hardware store what size is it?
The next thing is a picture of a dial mount i have for calibrating the print bed i think it looks really cool attached to the head

where do you get nylon filament?

that fan thing is a turbine that you can attach to a dremel! here it is

Im planning on adding a reducer and a tube so i can use it for dust removal
-
Im starting to get good at printing! im so happy with print quality i just have to play with settings more to get better speed! here is some projects ive been working on.
this one is going to be my next project!
-
yah i actually received both the old one and the new extruder! i have 10mm between the washer and the printed part is that cool? Is there a ratio to speed and temperature? how does it affect print quality?
-
cheers man! ill print out the skull bigger and up load the prints! but i found out im also having trouble with the extruder. Sometimes it feeds fine (see first picture) then other times it grinds! (second picture) is there anyway to fix this i have turned the screw on the back of the extruder as much as possible and it seems to not help much i feel like i have done something wrong in the assembly or something! (see third picture) i have heard people saying that see-through plastic requires more pressure but im not totally sure.

its transparent green its a really weird color i think lol next im going to get a rainbow pack next from

ive heard their PLA is really nice!

i increased the temperature and now i got some perfect prints! so is it the faster you print the higher the temperature should be? ill post some more pics when this print is done!
-
here are some of the first prints ive done i get this problem quite often im printing at 200c speed at 70mms, .1 layer, 100% fill and florians settings for retraction and dwindle is it ending up like this because of extruder slippage? or what? here is some successful ones though!
the see through green is weird!

damn my computer is really wierd i just tried one last time doing the exact same thing ive done 10 times and this time it worked! thanks for the help guys!

Time is running down todays the last day i can use my girlfriends computer!! and im still totaly unable to install the driver!! i keep geting device cannot start (code 10) also i cant find any Prolific PL2303 windows driver on my system so i am pretty lost! i often have problems with drivers on this computer windows said that for 99$ they would get it running for me im almost tempted!!
-
well the nice thing is that its not broken!! i just got it to work on my girlfriends Mac but theres no way in hell she will let me use it to print as much as i want.. it has to be the driver but i cant figure it out!! thanks for all the help so far!awesome software, now that ive been able to use it!
-
now i have installed the audrino com port but it says device cannot start code 10 and the ultimaker is still registering as a usb!
-
It hasnt installed the driver sadly. When i try to add the driver in the add new hardware wizard it says that it cant find the software even though im directing it to my Arduino driver folder! when i connect my machine all i get is found new hardware usb device.
-
what driver do i need to install?
-
there is only baudrate that i can configure in Cura there is only auto for the comport
-
yeah with cura. but i cant really figure out how to configure a comport on my computer. Ive tried to search for a guide and they say to search through my system manager for com ports to configure them but i couldnt find any comports. soory im a newbie i just finished building this ultimaker and im dying to get it running its just sitting there!
-
searched for connection problems on the forum and tried to set baudrate on diferent settings noting worked any other tips to get my printer up and running?
-
yeah Ive looked at reconstruct me it looks like a better solution than nothing especially since you can pick up a kineckt for around 50 euros in the local classifieds. i think i might give it a try. Otherwise I think i have to wait until some new sort of technology comes or some new sort of cash flow comes!

Well i guess if you oxidize your nozzle it is doable for longer. Or stainless steel. I really think this would be a huge step in 3d printing being able to print circuitry into your 3D models.
-
How feasible would it be to print solder for rapid prototyping of PCB boards? Its melting point is 183 °C and they do sell it in 3mm thick rolls. it seems quite doable to me. what do u think?

The ultimate conversion: real 3D to digital 3D.
I was wondering if anyone here had any insight into 3D scanning. Ive looked at some consumer products that look very pricey and have been looking at some homemade solutions too but they seem quite time consuming and inaccurate. I would really like to have 3D scanner with my ultimaker it would make modifying/upgrading existing things alot easier.
What do you think about the pricy scanners on the market and the DIY types?

Post your latest print!
