I'm interested in this topic because i plan to make some outdoor stuff.
I found this topic showing how a printed PLA object behaves in nasty conditions:
http://www.protoparadigm.com/blog/2013/06/weathering-of-3d-printed-pla-objects/
I'm wondering if applying paint or some kind of varnish would change this... i have no experience sadly, during my internet search i found some stuff talking about dipping in Epoxy?
This is interesting too:

Good point.
Maybe this could be added in Youmagine? As i guess that most of the printable hacks are posted there. Maybe just a logo "Tested and Approved by Ultimaker" or something like that.

You have at least 15 more days until i receive my UM2 so no problem for me
-
Great job
I guess this is one of the first things i'll print once i have my UM2 this will probably help me not to grow more white hairs ^^

Voici les infos que j'ai reçues par mail:
Lets begin with next week. We are looking at a lead time of 10 - 11 weeks.
That means orders placed until 13 december 2013 will be shipped during that week.
From that week on we will (finally) see some improvement and we will make some progress on the lead time.
Week 10 (week from March 3rd) will ship all orders until January 1st. This means the lead time at that point has decreased to 9 weeks.
Week 11 (week from March 7th) will have all orders shipped until January 16th. The lead time will be 8 weeks at that point.

Pour info moi qui suis en attente de livraison (commandée le 10 Janvier) j'ai reçu un mail dernierement qui me disait que les délais de livraison étaient améliorés et que pour moi ce serait 8 semaines. Donc oui il y a un délais mais d'après tout ce que je vois ca en vaut la peine...
Patience ^^

Commandée un dimanche, reçue le jeudi suivant. Elle n'a mis que 24h à être livrée. Arrivée en parfait état (kit).
Pour une UM1 je suppose?

ABS
Print temp 250°C notes: print with fans off, heated bed at 110°C, don’t print too fast
-
Would they be stupid enough to sell them in the Netherlands??
-
Tu imprimes avec du PLA ou de l'ABS ? Dans ton premier poste tu dis que c'est de l'ABS.
Il me semble que la température idéale pour le PLA ce situe entre 210°c et 230°c (théorie toujours ^^)

Nice video Vinay :ugeek: i always enjoy watching stuff being build :mrgreen:
I'm just wondering, is the noise normal ? It's seems loud to me (i'm still waiting for my UM2).
-
I am employed but send me 10 kits and I will help build them too... might take me longer than 10 weeks though having never even seen a machine lol
And you just keep one or two as payement ^^ count me in :-P (even if i'm not unemployed ^^)

Salut,
Bienvenue sur le forum
Je n'ai pas encore mon imprimante donc je ne te donne que de la théorie de ce que j'ai pu lire sur le forum dans la partie anglaise.
Est ce que les pointes apparaissent sur les parties les plus hautes de l'objet que tu imprime (comme sur la pyramide)?
Parce que si c'est le cas:
http://umforum.ultimaker.com/index.php?/topic/4125-bad-end/
This is a common problem and easy to fix.
The problem is that the nozzle never leaves the small area at the top and so the plastic never has a chance to cool down. The best and simplest solution unfortunately is to print something else nearby that is taller or the same height. I would personally probably print 2 sharks. Alternatively you can put a tall cylinder next to the shark that is slightly taller.
Be careful to look at it in the slicer and make sure that it prints both parts at the same time and not one part followed by the other. You can force this with a checkbox somewhere in the new cura menus or you can go to machine settings and set gantry height to 0.
Sinon y aussi ce sujet peut etre?
http://umforum.ultimaker.com/index.php?/topic/4045-poor-top-surface/
Moi j'aurais tendance a dire qu'il s'agit d'un probleme de refroidissement du plastique, comme la surface a créer est petite les couches du bas non pas le temps de refroidir assez avant d'avoir d'autres couches sur le dessus, donc ca fait une sorte de blob sur le dessus.
Encore une fois ce n'est que de la théorie. Sinon ca pourrait etre un phénomène qui s'appelle 'stringing' en anglais. Essaie de poser la question en anglais il y a plein de mecs supers callés

Patience Olivier ^^ moi commandée le 10 Janvier :eek:
Par contre visiblement ils tiennent compte du moment ou ils ont l'argent et pas le moment ou la commande a été passée.
On verra si c'est plus rapide pour la Belgique que pour le Quebec... en attendant moi je parcours le forum y a une tonne d'information super interessante a lire :geek:
-
En fait moi je n'ai que des connaissances théoriques vu que l'imprimante a été commandée au mois de janvier :(
Mais d'après ce que je lis sur le forum (je le parcours régulièrement depuis la commande ^^) il y a plusieurs méthodes pour qu'un object imprimé adhère bien a la plaque.
Il y a le gluestick qui est fourni avec je pense.
Pour ce qui est du brim en gros ça te crée quelques couches avant la premiere et ça "entoure" l'objet d'une surface plus grande (je crois que c'est paramétrisable dans CURA) l'avantage il me semble c'est:
1. Meilleure adhérence a la plaque.
2. Si jamais tu as un coté qui se lève, c'est pas l'objet final mais le coutour.
Si tu le met dans CURA et que tu passe en vue layer tu verras de quoi je parle. Après y a pas mal de sujets sur le forum mais en anglais (je maitrise bien l'anglais donc s'il y a des choses que tu (ou vous) ne comprenez pas demandez moi
Je vais voir si je trouve un des sujets que j'avais lu sur ça
http://umforum.ultimaker.com/index.php?/topic/4228-detachment-from-the-plate
Y a pas mal de sujet super interessant avec des conseils de gr5 ou illuminati qui semblent vraiment callé comme celui ci:
http://umforum.ultimaker.com/index.php?/topic/4175-how-to-improve-the-print-quality

I'm also in the same situation.
I think that it depends on what type of objects you will want to make. I tested a few and i'm quite lazy I want something straitforward where you don't have to read a ton of information or tutorials.
I've been trying FreeCad (http://www.freecadweb.org/) this weekend and it looks pretty easy to understand. I don't have much experience for the moment but i've been able to create an object i had in my mind in a couple of minutes
Google Sketchup is also pretty easy but i think it's limited in use.
There are a lot of softwares out there it's not easy to find something for total newbies like me. I look at blender and i was afraid by the complexity.
OpenScad looks interesting but i think you need to have some experience with programming and languages.

:mrgreen: Un voila encore un qui va passer moins de temps sur le forum d'un coup ^^ bon amusement
-
Browsing through this particular thread was one of the reasons for me to click on the buy now button
The phone case looks pretty nice great job

Did a quick search on google it seems that if you finish the game you are rewarded something ^^ didn't find how to but i found what the reward is

C'est bizarre que tu ne puisses pas sélectionner Brim dans Platform Adhesion Type.
Moi ça fonctionne. Mais je suis en version 13.11.2 je sais pas si ca a quelque chose a voir. Sinon tu dois peut etre activer Full Settings dans le Menu Expert -> Switch to full settings.
Y a un user guide de Cura qui est plutot interessant a lire aussi disponible dans Support sur le site.
Pour voir les couches de brim il faut passer en mode de vue Layers sinon on ne voit pas la différence.
-
Il faudrait des photos pour voir.
Si je comprends bien ta question, tu as les bords qui se soulèvent? Si c'est ça en anglais ça se dit "Warping". Il y a quelques sujets sur le forum.
http://umforum.ultimaker.com/index.php?/topic/3968-um2-warping-with-ultimaker-pla/?hl=warping
Si tu imprimes en PLA il faut que le lit chauffant soit a 70°c et ajouter Brim comme type de support dans Cura (ça aide bien visiblement)
Maintenant je ne te donne que la théorie parceque je n'ai pas encore mon UM2 :(
-
D'après ce que j'ai lu le bruit n'est pas un soucis.
Tu peux regarder la vidéo de Bernacules pour te donner une idée:
A un moment il met le micro sur l'imprimante et il parle de plus loin et on l'entend toujours clairement.

Ce serait pas du a un probleme de niveau du plateau?
How weatherproof is PLA
in Coffee corner
Posted
From what i've read it seems that the main problem for PLA is heat. If exposed to the sun a black object might begin to 'melt' and loose its form. Other than that the biodegradability of PLA won't occur in natural conditions.
I wasn't able to find many informations about this. My guess is white PLA should behave good outdoor.
