Kira doesn’t care about regulations

To be fair, I think he’s just regular fluid

I got the EIBOS one on Amazon. Not sure it is that different from the Sunlu and others that have been mentioned but it works fine for me. I had a very humid house, lile 60%+ in the summer. I had a lot of problems with petg and even pla before I got that box and none after. We just moved and new house is thankfully normal humidity, but I’m still using it

Good tip - I don’t have a runout sensor installed so I was not aware of this

I need to do that - I haven’t finished fully calibrating everything. I still need to calibrate flow and pressure advance as well. The current settings are pretty good for print quality so I haven’t messed with it much but the last few prints I have noticed some issues with dimensional accuracy that affect tighter tolerances

I use Cura 5.4 and the only changes I made were to the start and end gcode for the machine (per the guild I linked). After that, I did a few prints with my regular profiles, then started cranking up the speed a little at a time. So really the only setting I changed was the print speed and start / end gcode.

The printer handled everything else - honestly it feels a little like magic to me, even though it’s just software. I’m a software engineer so I feel like I should have a better grasp of it, but printer firmware is pretty far outside of the type of work I do. One thing I do know is that Klipper manages acceleration itself and doesn’t use the acceleration gcodes sent from the slicer - those get ignored and Klipper decides how fast to accelerate (this is configurable using moonraker or the config files).

I think the thing that makes the most difference in letting you print at higher speeds is the input shaping. I don’t understand all the inner workings, but it using the processing power on the raspberry pi to compensate for the vibration of the printer, letting you print much faster without getting artifacts in the print that affect quality. Here is some info on that

I’m sure there are a lot of slicer and Klipper configurations that I can do to improve things even more as well

Great little machine! I have one as my first and only printer and I have been loving it. Prints PETG and TPU very well

You download them directly from thr Humble bundle website. They appear to be DRM free.

They are all available in PDF but only some are available in all formats, and the rest are either only PDF and MOBI or PDF and ePUB, if that matters to you

I thought so but I’ve only ever used it on taller TPU prints where I want them to basically be hollow so I’ve never seen it look quite like that!

Those look great! What is the top left one?

There’s a type of cubic that starts out lower and increases in density as it reaches the top to support the top layers. That’s mainly the one I was thinking of. I can’t remember the name of it though. And lightning is suuuper fast but provides basically no strength

Same. Sometimes you want something fast. For things that don’t need to be sturdy at all (little display figures and stuff like that) I’ll use cubic or even lightning infil

That’s a good tip - I haven’t tried that yet. I’ll give it a shot next time I need something sturdy

Looks great! I don’t use a Macbook anymore or I’d test it out.

Are you printing in PLA? I have really been enjoying PETG for mounting things as it is a lot less brittle. It will flex a lot more before it breaks

Yeah I do like that it doesn’t jerk the printer, just a little wiggle!

This is PETG also - it makes for super sturdy prints.

I haven’t had a use case where something is too thin for gyroid yet. I can definitely see that being useful though!

It’s like a little dance for every layer

I haven’t tried that one yet. I don’t see that one in Cura - is that in prusa slicer?

That’s a cool idea for the coaster! I might do that if I ever get into pouring resin
