Nice R2

If you look closely, you can see my 1-1 scale Terminator Arm that I am building

Thought this was interesting for post processing http://makezine.com/projects/make-34/skill-builder-finishing-and-post-processing-your-3d-printed-objects/ http://www.tinkerines.com/post-process-your-pla-prints/

What a DUMP !! But I love it, I feel like Tony Stark

Devil. I was in exactly the same position as you a month or two ago.. i managed to convince myself to buy the UM2 and I am sooo glad i did. I have had a few issues yes, but nothing major and nothing that this forum and its wealth of knowledge and helpfulness cannot fix. Each day that I play and use the printer.. the more I learn..and the less worried I become that I may BUST something I dont think you`d regret it.

Looks pretty good to me Tom !

If the part has a nice flat bottom which you " think " would support the upper layers, then I use nothing.. just 60-64 degrees and nothing else... I do often use brim though, just to get the material flowing nicely. At first I was printing everything with 75 degrees and glue and bla bla bla... but nah, keep it simples

That`s a good point woofy! Although I have to say, since building my " Happy Corner " and installing the funkiest printer on the market... I seem to be collecting every single nut, bolt, spring, screw, washer.. bit, bob, every bloody thing you`ve ever known.. with the hope it`ll come in handy on that one design on day... I must take a recent picture of my messy man cave !

PAUSE. would be nice

Welcome aboard somewhereinia ( what a great name lol ). Don`t worry.. ultimaker kicks makerbot`s a$$ when it comes to printer friednliness

Hmmm... just watched the season finale of The Walking Dead..already wishing for the start of next season !! Had a glass or two of red wine... now having a hundred thoughts about how a bunch of us ultimaker forum members can put all of our creative minds together, start a profitable design and print business and work for ourselves.. making whatever we want .. when we want !! OK... back to wine I go... oh and im having horrible twisting filament issues arrgghhh !!! Im gonna take a carving knife to it!

Perfect Ju

I am using latest cura and today I am testing lots of filaments so changing a lot... so far so good! 14.03 right?

Keep us posted Shark, id be interested in trying this out if they get it sorted.

Has anybody got Siert Wijnia email address, I wanna send all these under extrusion images and ask for 1000 rolls free filament Just kiddin... best of luck to them all !

I`m struggling with all sorts of extrusion mess at the moment, I am almost certain that it is due to Ultimaker filament spooling... I`ve been using Faberdashery unspooled for a while with no issues, back to an ultimaker spool and lots of wasted prints :( I printed Three more cylinders, exact same settings with two different spools of filament. The unspooled faberdashery and NEW ultimaker blue were fine... the 1/2 - 3/4 used ultimaker blue is terrible ;/ It`s putting me off buying more ultimaker filament.

I know I am, pc`s ok too

Tried again today... on two machines. Windows Explorer 11. Still cant copy paste... arrghh !! New forum please

Robert, totally agree on the chamfer technique. I have developed this recently and it gives much nicer results.

Come on Ian, post some stills so we can see

I just cant copy or paste anything into this reply box... nothing. :( Wierd

64 degree bed and no glue...works for me every time

Whoa! Takei, nice work. Certainly looks impressive

Nice first prints! Tyre looks cool.

Is that the Eiffel tower that Form1 use with their SLS machine? Looks a decent model to try and improve on. Beautiful curves on your green female too!
