No issues yet, or last time I was looking at it. Default temps for the profile they provide for Cura. 235C nozzle, and 75C bed.
I use a G10 bed I think, and it’s sticking so far. That dry box makes a lot of noise.
Just printing an alligator chip clip, supposed to be better with PETG.
Didn’t dry the filament, it was vacuum sealed. Should probably unload it, and seal up the dry box, or put it the dryer, which might be better. After it’s done.
There might be a tad bit of stringing. At least on the first layer.
Also, noticed the right Z rod going up a little high when auto homing after making it go up as far as I allow it to in the firmware. I’m losing some height, but better then it crashing into the top.
If there’s any problems, it’s probably print settings. Unless the Z rod or rods have issues.
So far COEX seems to make good filament. I should go to Hobby Town sometime, they might have their filament there.
Got to love this building, people must have their heat @ 75F or more under me. You need the AC on all year long apparently. I might move someday, if an apartment, maybe one where you pay for heating, so nobody can afford to have it @ 80F all year long.
Does PETG warp like ASA? No idea, didn’t use a brim.
Guess I’ll unload it tomorrow sometime, will probably print another one. Just not while sleeping.
Is the dry box loud as fuck or the extruder? No idea. But something is loud, when it’s retracting I think. Might be using a different retraction setting, but almost no stringing, so I’ll keep it.
Why not use OrcaSlicer? Too much work. Might be fine, since the filament was probably wet. But lazy, and Cura works without fuss.
And that premade dry box, bought on eBay, somebody made it, they used some kind of tape to hold the pieces in place. Well, some of the pieces moved. Tape didn’t seem to move though. So I guess it came unstuck. Not really worth what I paid, should have been secured better.
I thought PETG was harder to print, not COEX PETG. If you use their profile. I’ve printed PLA, ASA, and PETG now. PLA with wood in it too. Don’t have anything to print with flexible PLA.
Almost done printing.
Found something to print with flexible PLA, but you have to buy something to make it, a REM POD. Might require soldering, and I’m lazy. One part of it, they said to print in a flexible material.
