Thanks for a great video, really helpful. If you could share a list of changes or flow of the video in a slide we will be able to track what to expect in the video and jump directly to the point of interest if we wish to revert back to the video for a followup. Great work.
Hey, thanks a ton for the kind words! It's great to hear from you while I'm working on my new video. By the way, if you're looking for a specific part of the video, you can jump to it easily using the existing chapters. Is that what you meant by slides? Keep an eye out for more exciting content from me!
Do you have conversion table for setting between cura and PursaSlice because my original slicer is cura. My printout have been optimized in cura. I like to try PursaSlice, but I do not want to retest every parameters again which not only causing time, but waste a lot of materials due to fail print.
Hey @hicl5450 ! I totally get where you're coming from. Switching slicers can be a pain, especially when you've optimized your printouts in Cura. Unfortunately, there isn't a direct conversion table between Cura and PrusaSlicer. But don't lose hope! You can start with similar settings in PrusaSlicer and make adjustments based on your Cura experience. It may take a bit of time, but I'm sure you'll figure it out. Happy 3D printing!
wow!!! I've been searching for how to separate objects within STL files without using a CAD program and your video explained exactly how to do it with the slice function!! The text function was pretty cool too, I can see myself using that!! You have a new subscriber! Do you have any tips on making the supports easier to remove and less intrusive?
Thank you so much for your kind words and for subscribing! I'm glad the video was helpful to you. As for your question about making supports easier to remove and less intrusive, as usual, there's no one-fits-all answer, and it requires doing tests for the specific material and printer, but I'll try to give some tips: - print at a lower temperature, if possible. It will reduce the bonding strength of the support with your print - increase the Top Z-contact distance. Generally, I wouldn't go over 0.2 which is the default. - Increase pattern spacing, but that could make the contact surface look worse - if not already, try Snug support instead of Grid, that should be easier to remove, too - if possible, use "Support on build plate only" - reorient the print, or use the cut tool to get away with no support, or avoid to much support (Golden rule: "No support is the best support ;-) ) - Consider using support interface layers to create a buffer between the support material and your print, making removal easier. When using Organic Supports: - Try adjusting the support density and angle, as well as the other branch settings to find the right balance between stability and ease of removal. I hope these tips help! Let me know if you have any more questions.
great video. you did not mention which prusa printers support which new slicer features. There is a huge crowd of prusa users that are not sure I would guess. Awesome job I just subscribed...
The only feature that's mentioned in the video which is only supported by prusa printers yet is binary g-code, and that's only supported by Original Prusa MINI, MK4 and XL printers from firmware version 5.1. 0-alpha2. So it may be nessecary to update the printer to that version. All other features are generally usable with any 3d printer. Big thanks for subbing 🥰
I don't use N360 but guess it's a false positive. According to PrusaSlicers GitHub page there's an issue report: GitHub github.com › issues Norton 360 deleted files after unzip · Issue #11637 · prusa3d/PrusaSlicer I suggest uploading the PrusaSlicer installer to virustotal to have it checked by multiple virus scanners, and if most of them don't find something malicious then I would set an exception in N360 to get it installed.
Hi, the slicer just takes the provided model and creates a GCode-file from it. To print it you have to save the file to a USB stick, SD-card, or send it over network. Which method to use depends on your 3D printer model. Does this answer your question?
@@3D_Printing_Geek ah apologies for not being clear. I am new to 3d printing. So yesterday i was working on an object in tinkercad, exported it as .stl and imported that stl to prusa slicer ( my printer is Sovol sv07) within prusa i attempted to add text to the object however “add part” was not available, generally the menu i saw upon clicking the surface didn’t have as many options as in the video, the top part of menu options was the same however the it ends and i don’t get to add text to the object, only as a separate object on the bed..
@TheLooking4sunset Ok. Now I got it. Are you sure you're using the 2.7 version of PrusaSlicer? I just tried exactly what you described: Exporting an object as STL from TinkerCad , and importing it into PrusaSlicer. Then right click on the imported object, and I was able to add text.
@@3D_Printing_Geek thank you so much for investing so much time to help me, yeah it’s 2.7.1 ver. Running on windows, when I right click the object ( prior to slicing) the menu i see starts from top to bottom with: -add instance - remove instance - set number of instances - fill bed with instances - delete - set as a separate object - printable [it is ticked] -reload from disk … ending on - mirror - split -add support enforcer -add support blocker And that is it for me.. My best LFS
Ok. Try the following: select the model, then press T. That's the shortcut for the "Add text" feature. The menu item when you right click is "Add part...". Then you should see "text" as a choice, among others.
It’s alright updating software, but for godsake sort the bugs/issues out in the previous versions. People buying your lastest release printers for big bucks and having problems out the box. QC needs to be a lot better, when doing slicer updates they should checked 100% then 100% again before release so people don’t need to go back to previous releases where there have no problems. Seems there being rushed to see who make their slicer the best to use which is not always the case. Sadly I wouldn’t spend thousands on a printer that isn’t 100% out the box.
I appreciate you taking the time to express your concerns. It's crucial for companies to listen to their customers and work on resolving any issues. Your feedback will definitely help them understand the importance of quality control and delivering products that are ready to go right out of the box.
Привет @alexivanov6112, Большое спасибо за добрый комплимент! Я рад, что вы нашли эти видео полезными. Я приложил много усилий для создания этих видео, чтобы помочь людям узнать о 3D-печати и PrusaSlicer. Если у вас есть вопросы по видео или PrusaSlicer в целом, пожалуйста, не стесняйтесь спрашивать. Я всегда рад помочь. Еще раз спасибо за просмотр!
Nods...we all need some inspiration and we should strive to be inspired by the best ones while having an own and individual style. So, yes, I'm insspired but unique 😉
I appreciate your observation! "3d printing nerd" is definitely an inspiration for me, but I strive to bring my own perspective and ideas to the table. Thank you for watching! And if so, what about 3D printing professor, 3D printing doctor, 3D printing general, 3Dprintingpro...? It's just a catchy name that expresses my passion and love for 3D printing. 🙂
What are your thoughts about the new PrusaSlicer 2.7 features?
Which is your favorite? Leave a comment and let's discusss!
1+ year behind some other slicers.
They say slow and steady wins the race, but in this case, I think being fashionably late is the way to go!
Thank you for the great video!
Thanks a bunch for watching! Your feedback keeps me going, so I'm grateful for your support!

Try importing settings from your old gcode into Prusa slicer, it might work
