  1. So I noticed this on a few prints, and it has bugged me a little. is this caused from vibrations? Look by her neck: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B1ya71IwpTg5TjJobmg4Ql81ZHc/view?usp=sharing
  2. I left my the same when I swapped over to the 1.75 mm head. So far the only thing I changed was the temp settings. Spool says 180-210, So I leave it around 205-207. And maybe put the flow to 95-97. But thats just me and prob doesn't make too much of a difference.
  3. I mainly got it because I have 14 roles of 1.75 sitting here. That and im more interested in the exotic stuff that seems to favor 1.75 more from what I see. Im not really looking to use it for a performance advantage. if I can get the same results as I did with the stock silver that came with it I will be happy. Anyone recommend a good 1.75mm silver brand that resembles the Ultimaker Brand? Also Im a cheap-ass lol. The $20 roll of Hatchbox compared to the $60 Ultimaker stuff kinda had me
  4. Looking at the ones I have.. I see a 6, a 2, a 4.0 and well an X which I assume is .15. I just look down the Nozzle and figure it out for the most part. I need to print some case to hold these lol
  5. What kind of screws are in the main body of the UM2+? The screws that hold the side panels together and pretty much the entire machines XD. I looked through some of the PDFs but are unable to locate those via google search by what they are called here. I'm hoping to find some different lengths of the same looking screws. You know for add ons like a door and such.
  6. Got everything up and running! Woot. Did you happen to change any retraction and heat settings for the new filament?
  7. Both. None of them make it all the way down the chambers. Instructions say to use a drill if they are too small. Have been doing that but then again I spent nearly $200 for this thing so hopefully they will send me one that actually fits correctly. Sent out an email.
  8. Yeah well I didn't have that luck. The holes on the new one are too small. I'm pretty sure I damaged my censor cables by trying to get just halfway in. Tried drilling them bigger as instructed with no luck. And the nozzles are great, they are all marked .40 with tiny half cut off numbers on the other side. So I have to make sure I don't mix them up and stare at the tiny hole to see if they are correct.
  9. Hey all. So here I am in the middle of a 16 hour print in my room with my computer... my god it's hot. I have a ceiling fan, but im too afraid to turn the sucker on and ruin the print. So I got to thinking about enclosures. Looked around and saw a few neat ones online. Actually looking to build this door now: Also looking at these feet to help keep the under belly cool: But as i read a few post, over heating on the motors can be an issue? They are already hot to the touch as is. So I go to wondering.. on the side panels where you can clearly see the motor area... why aren't there any kind of fans? Even the small ones would be a big help. perhaps even a heat sink area on the motors. Can we buy side panels for the ultimaker 2+? For the top I was thinking about simply extending it a little bit with some clear panels and leaving the top open just to block drafts. With those upgrades and the heated bed it shouldnt be much of a problem?
  10. You tried the kit? How was the install? Any tips or anything I should watch out for leveling wise and so on?
  11. Saw the Ada Fruit video on using the more commonly used 1.75 filament with the UM2. So I picked up a role and tried myself without any luck. Is there any settings or upgrades I should try?
  12. Does that work on PLA as well? Every time I see it mentioned I see ABS.
  13. I looked over the vaping guide and it seems like a cool idea... But Chloroform on the other hand I thought was a hard to get or rather illegal substance for the average Joe. Any ideas or better methods? I only see a $50 bottle online. And that's it really...
