i do have some of that and do wipe down when i lay new tape
-
I eventually run out of my gratis blue masking tape... I noticed it was made by 3M so ordered some wider 3M blue tape. The original blue tape stuck like a mother and after every single print the blue tape would need to be changed as it would tare in the removal etc etc. But the new blue tape (as well as trying standard white masking tape... and very expensive green 'frog tape') doesnt stick very well at all. I have to use V05 hair gel spray to get a slight stick as well as a raft. Im just wondering what you guys use to increase adhesion ? ps.. I haven't got a heated bed.

Thanks for you advice this is know complete. I am missing the different % i can set for my printing as i usually have ouside line : 90% inside : 120% fill : 120 support 150% and with the UC its one percentage for all. but thats ok i just set it at 70mm/p/s and be done with it

think i found it.. in cura export geode and save that to the card. out of interest does it need the stl files in there to or is the geode file enough ?
-
any tuts about ?
-
I finally got my SD reader and finished building my ulti controller... everything works fine now, and the card is recognised when i put the card in and get "card menu" etc etc etc now i see folders inside my SD card, but i don't see any STL's umm - err - ??? I'm almost certain the controller can read STL files and feel daft asking that question... what else could it be. It is a 2gb SD (standard) Fat32

non ultimaker related, but I'm sick of googling haha any programmers out there... I'm looking for a C++ editor and compiler etc (full suite would be nice) what do you recommend, i see the biggies are spoke of being MS and boolean. but can't find them. I did download C-Free 5.0 but that doesn't recognise the simplist commands like 'cout' lol a url would be nice ;-)

Sketchup export - Cura not printing what it should

i only wanted a few layers to print to see if i got the size right.. as the hole in the toilet is 41mm in diameter. But when i saw the whole of the bottom start to print i was confused... yes nancy i 'expected it to print like your vase, and then cancel print after 3-5 layers. i need the hole in the centre to only be 10-20mm vacant (it isnt exact)then a 7mm pin hangs from the button... through the tube/screw and then connects to a lifting leaver -
