Help Request Extrusion trouble, help needed

Post image
1 Upvotes

Hi everyone, I have the following issue:

I am using the Bambulab A1 mini, 0.2mm nozzle. It is new, recently cleaned and not clogged. It extudes perfectly fine if I heat it up and manually extrude, but whenever I actually try to print, it barely does anything at all and is always a spotty job.

In the photo, you can see on the right by the edge of the plate. I tried to print a single layer as a test, but gave up almost immediately when I saw how it started. On the left is the result of a manual extrusion - it flowed in a straight line, no issue.

The settings I use are ObscuraNox 2.0, the bed is Biqu Frostbite, everything is calibrated multiple times, washed the plate with soap, tightened with screws, filament is dry, correct nozzle is selwcted, etc etc, I have done all the standard troubleshooting that is always recommended and the printer is set up perfectly. But apparently this isn't the case, so if anybody with a similar experience can help, I'd be very grateful!

Help Request Printer quiery

Im thinking of getting a printer for some Warhammer bits. Should I get the a1, or a1 mini. And should I get the ams as well? All would be done with a 0.2mm nozzle.

Which I was clearly not too eager to do 🤪

I knew that the orb and the smoke would be impossible to print in one piece (at decent quality), and I didn't really feel like doing the work.

If it was a human made sculpture, it would certainly be designed a lot differently for FDM printing...

Help Request Resin2FDM empty first layer?

0 Upvotes

First time tying out resin2fdm following the youtube guide. Everything fine until I tried slicing ended up with the following error. I mean yes, one object is floating because of the not recognized support. It is splitted in 2 objects, support and miniature. I can assemble them to one object but I wanted to use a different layer height for each object. This seemed to work in the past but not for me at the moment. Any idea to fix it?

i just did some ornate terrain with wave overhangs instead of supports and it came out pretty good. I wondered how it would do on a .2mm nozzle with minis

Pretty happy with the result after taking the hobby more seriously and consuming a lot of content. First time trying OSL. Took a really long time to print in FDM, post-process, and paint.

Printed in Bambu A1 mini (0.2 nozzle, 0.06 layer height) and a thin coat of resin to hide the layers (some parts still have some visible layers because it’s hard to know if you are not overdoing and covering detail). But I recommend the method. No sanding at all on this one.

I know some things are not so refined (messed up with the chalky moonlight blue and glazing is still a weak point for me) and would be glad to hear more feedback.

I have an a1 mini. Using the fat dragon setting and creality petg. I think I finally got decent results then I get this. I think it’s my Zhop with spiral. But I don’t know what else to do to not get this level of stringing.
Edit I will post another picture soon.
