[Effects on the printer with 15hr+ prints]

Ahh that's good to hear. I was a bit worried about over heating or something along those lines.

Fingers crossed the prints go well but I wont be shocked if i goose at least one long print lol

 

[Effects on the printer with 15hr+ prints]

I have some large prints I need to do, and the print times are between 17 and 24 hours. So my question is what are the effects to the printer with prints of this time scale?

Also has anyone else done large prints that have take a long time and what where your experiences?

All hints and tips are much appreciated

Thanks for the welcome

Its all boring cubes atm while I play with different settings to see what happens. I have a 1.2m long RC body I'm going to print out in sections and glue together. Its going to take some serious printing time lol

Hi All,

A big hello from another noob in the UK

Recently got into the world of 3D printing and got hold of a Ultimaker 2:)

My main use for the printer will be prototyping RC parts for a variety of projects I'm working on and have planned for the future.

So far I've just done a few test prints and used this forum to help me dial in the settings ...... I feel getting there now and I appreciate Its not a plug and play platform. But If it was easy it would be boring

I'm sure I will have a few hicups across the way so bare with me if I post a few questions lol ...... I promise I will read the topics first before spamming the forum with questions everyone asks.

I'm looking forward to the endless possibilities this awesome tool will open up to me
