  1. You might receive it too but I got an email from 3DHubs explaining the discounts:

     

    • Activation order completed = 10% discount

    • 5 orders completed = 15% discount

    • 25 orders completed = 20% discount

    • 100 orders completed = 25% discount

     

    That "could" also be region base.

     

    Yep got the same here too, looks like i need to get a few more orders on the go....

     

  2. Hi Didier

    Yes i have been using this little trick as i have done my fair share of fairphone cases now, i have also used it on other prints also since discovering it.. must admit i use this little trick using simply3d and not cura on fairphone cases so i can control where the z scare goes and also so i can print the bottom of the case really fast then set up a second process to slow it right down at then end to do the tricky bit...

     

  3. (and as far as I can tell, it was only announced in a single youtube comment, but thats besides the point)

    just because a vague promise was made quite a while ago.

    Dual extrusion was advertised on the product page when first released, just like the WIFI is as future upgradable, Also sander promoted duel extrusion at the 3d print show (London) last year to me and said it would be here in first quarter 2014 and showed me duel extrusion printed parts..

    It is also advertised on the FAQ page for the UM2 that it will be here in late 2014 (estimated)

    https://www.ultimaker.com/pages/support/faq/ultimaker-2-faq

    Don't seem vague to me

    But do agree it has to be a working upgrade and not half baked...

     

  4. pause at height is working for me on latest firmware, i tried it on previous firmware and it did not work, i then upgraded and did a print and it stopped at 5mm i thought my print was corrupted and aborted it, i did this twice before i realized that pause at height was suddenly working and i had left the plugin active from weeks ago :???:

    If i had read the readout it would have told me, but me being me i aborted without reading the display that said resume LOL

     

  5. Excellent Blizz that explains why i did not have the issue as i had already taken out the -0.13, with this set to zero i did not notice any ooze on my prints at all...

     

  6. LOL that was my first print with S3D to test out the support structure, i had no issues with but i did have 'only retract when crossing open spaces' on so i might try it with it off and see if i get the same results as you did .....

     

  7. Guys how long a print before you see it stop extruding because filament is gradualy working its way back up the bowden ?

    I did a 5 hour print last night and all was fine...

     

  8. So that leaves only the retraction during a print.

     

    Hi Blizz

    Like i said i have only been playing for just under a week so my advice might not be 100% just trial and error, i have done 6 hour prints all fine and used support which is the main reason for purchase..

    Any ways my settings for retraction are standard apart from i removed the -0.13 i think it was, Again still at work so i cant look at exact figures working from memory. Also i had under extrusion only on the infill so i changed the multiplier from .90 to .95 tried 1.0 but 0.95 was sufficient to fix my issues... hope that helps...

    I have an issue that once a print has finished, i then start a second one but the bed raises up while everything heats up then lowers and then does the start sequence do you get this ?

    Also do the settings on the display work during printing on a um2 i know speed setting does but do the temp settings work also ?

     

  9. Can someone please post S3D settings for the Ultimaker 2. I have been trying for hours to get it to work. When I start the print, the head just moves around as if it is printing, but no filament comes out. Then about layer 3, it starts printing very sloppy layers. HELP!

     

    I just invested in S3D and what i did in the script tab under start.gcode i increased the 8mm to 20mm filament feed at the start. its all new to me so cant remember the line of code exactly as i am not at home, but there is comments next to it that tells you what each line of code does so just change E8 to E20 this should get the filament flowing ok...

    It because at the end of a print the material is retracted more than the 8mm S3D specify's to feed at the start to prime the nozzle.

     

  10. Unfortunately it comes with kind of a steep learning curve before you get decent prints out of it..

     

    Hi Blizz was looking at this again as you have brought it up, What do you mean by learning curve before getting decent prints ? Also do you think print quality is as good as cura ? wouldn't want to pay for something that can not at least match the free slicer...

     

  11. Following-up, thanks EldRick for help on and instructions

    E-Step with MK8 after measuring 100mm of filament extrusion has moved from 282 to 300, that's 1.06383 multiplier.

    Very close to my empirical 106-108% increase in material flow.

     

    Hi Guys

    My MK8 arrived today, so to set it up properly i need to go into machine settings and change where it says E-Steps per 1mm filament from 0 to 1.06383 ?

    I ordered mine 3 days ago and it arrived this morning, yep all 1500 grams of 1.75mm, now got to wait until next week for them to fix their error and deliver the correct 2.85mm that i ordered.. was so looking forward to a weekend with Bronzfill :(

    Edit: have to say colorfabbs has been very quick to fix this error as i have just received tracking number for replacement Bronzfill
