Definitely not dual extrusion. Daid just replied in the official topic about it that they re-assigned him from cura to research for dual extrusion. This means (assuming he's telling the truth - sorry Daid), that they're really not ready with that.

Quick print of an iPhone6 and iPhone6+ for a "pocket test". Just wanted to know if the 6+ will be annoying to carry around due to its size. For me, the answer is - unfortunately - an overwhelming yes. Hardware-wise this is the only of the 2 phones that remotely comes close to the current top range android phones. I was considering purchasing one, but given my level of annoyance it'll have to be a "regular 6"

Geen probleem hier met die shroud. Deze raakt het warme gedeelte niet en zit gewoon vast, dus zelf al zou de zijkant wat plastisch worden, het beweegt allemaal niet dus geen prob. Ik heb de indruk dat het wel helpt, maar ik heb het nog niet praktisch uitgetest, dus da's geen objectieve mening.

I bought 10m of bowden from ebay, to have some spare stuff. Haven't tried it yet on the printer as mine is fine, but the specs said that it was for the UM2. Perhaps that might be an idea for a possible future rage fit?

Solid Print 3D: perhaps a new fan shroud for better airflow and the leveling nut covers for easier leveling? Ultibrain: excellent transparency! Looks awesome.

Nice Dacht even dat je mijn foto gebruikt had voor die fan shroud

If you resolve it, let us know too will you?

For a recent woodfill print that burned at the end with the slowing down to respect the layer height I've asked for their opinion on how to improve: As always, the reply was excellent. Even though It doesn't completely apply to this situation, I did want to share their answer with you all. It might be of help:

*looks at the blender app on his other monitor* It sure can

Very good question that I don't know the answer to either... I've replied as well, but they haven't sent me an order yet. Just wanted to pitch in here as a reminder to myself I need to follow this up

@Didier yeah indeed. Especially for that woodfill, which burns so quickly, I think that is the only way. Luckily my modelling skills are adequate enough to make one of those

Leon: De gcode die uit cura komt is de geslicede data die je nodig hebt. Dus het idee is dat je gewoon eerst zonder plugins in cura je model klaarmaakt met instellingen voor het bovenste gedeelte, hiervan een "save" doet. Dan pas je de instellingen aan naar die voor het onderste gedeelte, voegt de swap plugin toe en wijst daarin naar de versie die je daarvoor bewaard hebt.

@didier indeed and its not something you can easily fix... The layer has to cool down. Minimum layer time by slowing down => burnt filament Minimum layer time by "waiting" (if that is even possible) => filament in the nozzle would burn, you'd have to purge it somewhere while waiting Perhaps printing some kind of column next to your piece at the same time so that it "gets out of there" every layer for a couple seconds?

I just do it like this: I'm lazy Yes, those are in fact pliers

Yeah I won't be using the laywoo-d3 again anytime soon. Definitely not before I have something with a bigger nozzle. I printed this at 0.25mm, 50mm/sec, 205ºC, 110% flow - according to the advice of the colorfabb dudes - and it printed beautifully. Except for the last cm As I mentioned in another topic already the intention is to keep the filament in the nozzle as short as possible as it burns really quick, hence the high total throughput.

My first "successful" (as in finished) print with woodfill: Unfortunately I noticed too late that it had considerably slowed down at the end - to respect the minimum layer time - and thus burned the filament. I was too late to correct it. I have a spool of laywoo-d3 as well around here but I have never managed to print more than half an hour or so before it clogs. The woodfill prints a lot smoother. I assume that the laywoo-d3 is similar to the coarse woodfil, which colorfabb indicates requires a bigger nozzle.

Isn't this some kind of "overlap" coming into play? as in 1.6 is not exactly 4 passes because it needs to overlap a bit for good adhesion. The setting is definitely there for infill vs wall, perhaps this is something for "wall vs wall" as well?

Ja die S3D kost wel wat helaas. Hun support is wel heel goed en de functionaliteit van het programma is ook ongelooflijk, maar ik denk dat het voor de meeste hobby-printers helemaal de moeite niet is.

Not only that: Don't link to the notification itself, link to the comment. It is *extremely* annoying and userunfriendly that you have to log in to see a stupid comment.

Heb het ook al paar keer voorgehad ja, helaas geen idee hoe het kwam / op te lossen. Maar je bent niet alleen dus.

That is how it is supposed to be, mine is like that as well. I do get the impression (but it might be due to the picture) that yours is not entirely parallel to the metal part. If the path somehow has too much resistance because of that it could also explain the underextrusion...

Didier then you are probably using a different one than I am. My nozzle still sticks out approximately 5mm from under the guard. I really like the fact that the entire plate the nozzle is mounted against is open with the guard, it makes cleaning easier.

No, unfortunately not. You can use the forum gallery. Just click on your username at the top and then pick "My gallery" (right bottom).You can add pictures there and then use the My Media button to paste them into your posts. It's a bit cumbersome, but it is how it is

aroth: I think you are posting your pictures private, 'cause all I can see here are "image not found" boxes.

You should organise some kind of volunteer weekend to get everything sorted and fitted
