  1. I'm getting so many notices that are ghost ones....

    I can't think of any other sites I frequent that have so many basic issues with their forum/community website.  :(

     

    Yep, that's why you generally don't build your own forum. But what could the problem be, spammers still?

    @SandervG, looking at your profile it says last post 5 days ago. However, this post was after that:

  2. It looks like a cooling problem. Judging from the print you are working on an UMO(+). The fan coming from one side could have this effect, although it's pretty intense here.

    Could you supply the model, perhaps there is a better orientation? Or a dual fan setup could work. Alternatively you can use a big room fan and point it at the printer from the other side temporarily.

    If all those are no option, print 2 of these models at once, that will allow the plastic to cool down more before starting the next layer. And print at a lower temperature if possible.

    It could also be a stability issue, that the right leg of the print was moving during the print?

  3. @ultiarjan You are right:

    But from what I understand Helian does more than Colorfabb does. They also do other stuff and work together indeed with : http://helianpolymers.com/category/products/

    Also, from Helian Polymers:

    ColorFabb brand of Helian Polymers is a producer of filaments and innovative materials for 3D printing. Helian Polymers is official distributor of Eastman Amphora™ 3D polymer.

    So it seems they use a specific plastic from Eastman.

  4. Regarding safety and particles, you should look into colorfabb materials, they actually do extensive research and testing. As for smell, there is a typical one, but not bad or unsafe, as long as you stick to PLA.

    Are you saying colorfabb PLA filament is the safest?

    I haven't seen them compare, but I do know there is test results from their own material available. I'd use any PLA(that is not from cheap china stores/resellers).

    @ultiarjan, Colorfabb is a brand name from Helian Polymers, one of the industries largest plastic producers. So the production of the filament happens from their selfproduced plastic :)
