Nowadays, desktop 3D printers that come with 2 extruders are more powerful and affordable. (the latest A10M is available for merely $259 after a discount, with an upgraded motherboard/LCD/Frame). Still, many, especially beginners are intimidated by those dual extrusion systems. In light of this, I am presenting to you this step-by-step guide to dual extruder…
3D printing can present all sorts of problems. Whether you are a newbie or an expert, chances are you are constantly tweaking a bit here and a bit there just to get the desired results. There are, however, a number of things you can do to get around some common issues in 3D printing and…
In FDM 3D printing, sometimes the nozzle may deposit unwanted plastic on the printed part where it is not supposed to while the extruder is traveling to a new point; the plastic then cools and sticks to the object, making it look hairy and unsightly. 3D printing stringing can be a common problem especially if…
Layer shifting, in other words, known as layer misalignment, is when the layers of the print are not properly aligned, and the print can be unsightly(mostly a failure). It is a common issue in 3D printing and can be tricky, especially if you are a newbie. This article will walk you through the possible causes…
When the first layer is not staying flat on the print bed, check whether the bed is level. An unlevel bed would cause the object to warp and/or cracks in the higher layers of the object. Leveling can be tedious and time-consuming, but it’s well worth the effort(If you hate this you can always choose…
Here is 2nd episode 3D Maker Salon by “Jens West”, who is working with 3D printers from a long period, going to share his experience on Dec 27th at 8 a.m he will be LIVE. I hope you all enjoyed the 1st episode of 3D Maker Salon by “Andreas Braun” who is well-experienced in 3D printing and…
I know it is the most awaited post which is related to the recycling and storage of the 3D filament. This is the 3rd part of the 3D printer filament guide in the 1st 2 parts I explained about the importance of the 3D material, what is the 3D filament made of, list or different…
In the previous guide to 3D printing, you came across the importance of 3d printer filaments, what is 3D filament made of? list of 3D printer filaments and in-depth knowledge related to Standard filaments. Therefore, various types of standard filaments, its applications, advantages, and disadvantages, extrusion temperature, and pricing. Now in this guide, you will be…
