Printing with Mosaic Palette 2 Pro
the860engine replied to the860engine's topic in Materials & profiles
@gr5 You are right, and I have been scanning through the links that Frank posted about using Palette with the Ultimaker. It looks like I should be able to use the Palette. I plan on digging into it a little deeper and will be sure to post what I find. -
Printing with Mosaic Palette 2 Pro

Or any other references I can read into about making it work with my S3? -
Printing with Mosaic Palette 2 Pro
the860engine replied to the860engine's topic in Materials & profiles
It seems like I will still need to pursue purchasing another 3D printer to achieve the multi-color prints I am looking for. Thank you, everyone for your input. A little disappointed that my S3 probably won't be able to do everything I was hoping it could. Does anybody have any experience with Creality, Makerbot or any other printer brands working well with Palette 2? -
Printing with Mosaic Palette 2 Pro

Thank you for the information. This is pretty upsetting, I was looking forward to working on multicolor prints but now think ill have to find another printer for this purpose. -
Printing with Mosaic Palette 2 Pro
the860engine replied to the860engine's topic in Materials & profiles
I was looking at the S3 conversion kit to make it so I can use 1.75mm materials, and the mosaic hub to use for interaction between the palette pro and my S3. Do you have any experience with either of these addons? -
I really want to purchase a Mosaic Palette 2 Pro, but am concerned that I wont be able to access or download the profiles for the 1.75mm material I would need to print with, should I buy. Does anybody have any experience with the Palette or any recommendations for where to purchase materials to use with it? Thanks, I really want to upgrade my S3 to be able to create multi-color prints, but don't want to spend hundreds on the Palette just to run into problems.

Poor finish/continuity on round print
the860engine replied to the860engine's topic in Improve your 3D prints
@willryan3 stumbled across this in my digging through SW. You need to set you STL output parameters in the system options/document properties-->Export/Import menus. Sorry the image is so sloppy (comp screen with cell phone camera), but I hope this helps! -
I am trying to print something using two different colors of pla together. They are simple nameplates with white background and black letters, or that is what I want. Can i choose at which layer the printer changes with extruder to use in Cura? or select extrude features to print with each extrude head?

Poor finish/continuity on round print
the860engine replied to the860engine's topic in Improve your 3D prints
It seems to have worked out really well! I don't have plans to reprint that model right now, but you can tell already from the attached views from KC that the model has been created with much finer tessellation. -
Poor finish/continuity on round print
the860engine replied to the860engine's topic in Improve your 3D prints
Luckily, I still have access to student licensing, so I downloaded the student trial of KC to check some of the features it offers. How do I get to these settings for my model? would I need to import my model, first, as a .prt to save as a parasolid? Do these options just present themselves at time of save, or are there deeper settings? -

@Framar what kind of software is keycreator? how much does it cost? -
Poor finish/continuity on round print
the860engine replied to the860engine's topic in Improve your 3D prints
is anyone familiar with the setting customization in NX? I guess, if I need to, I can try to generate my stls using that if my prints would be cleaner. -

the860engine replied to the860engine's topic in Improve your 3D prints
I have been using SW to generate models for my s3. Are you familiar with where settings might be? I feel like SW doesn't give you as many settings when generating an stl file, though. -
Cura saying 'Not Supported' when I load Breakaway
the860engine replied to the860engine's topic in Materials & profiles
Thanks. I just feel like something like that would do well hung on the wall behind my printer. -
Cura saying 'Not Supported' when I load Breakaway
the860engine replied to the860engine's topic in Materials & profiles
@maht do you know of any charts or tables I can find online that visualize all of the information for all the materials the s3 is capable with; almost like a tap & die hole sizing chart, but with the different materials listed with compatible print cores, and common uses and strengths of the materials? -
I am printing a pint glass of usual dimensions, standing up-right, but as I watch my printer work, I am noticing that the round o.d. of my part is more like a 100-sided round-ish polygon. Is there a way I can eliminate this appearance from my prints? Is it software, model, printer, or operator error? I calibrated my XY last time I loaded an AA 0.4 print core for use with breakaway material. Could something I did incorrectly during calibration be the reason for this issue?

Cura saying 'Not Supported' when I load Breakaway
the860engine replied to the860engine's topic in Materials & profiles
Thanks @Enigma_M4! Just got my s3 in the mail last Wed and feel like the package didn't come with very much product information included; was hoping there would be more documents in there, at least a usb loaded with a user manual, or something that would have tables with this information in it. At least for Ultimaker brand materials. -
Cura saying 'Not Supported' when I load Breakaway
the860engine replied to the860engine's topic in Materials & profiles
@maht Do you have a reference that I could access for which print core to use with which materials? This could really back me up in the future as I continue to broaden my uses with the s3! -
Cura saying 'Not Supported' when I load Breakaway
the860engine replied to the860engine's topic in Materials & profiles
Thank you! Foolishly loaded it into the BB 0.4. -
Can anybody tell me what I am doing wrong? This is my first time trying to use the Ultimaker brand breakaway material with my Ultimaker s3. I have loaded the material into the machine, no problem. The issue comes when I try to load a model into the Cura software, and update material settings, but it says "Not supported"? Is it something I am doing with my model, the material, or Cura? I am trying to print a custom pint glass. Any ideas? Thanks!
