    I follow so many youtube channels about 3d printers. Most of them is about hardware and firmware tweaks in order to get good quality prints. They use expensive hardwares, upgrades etc. But you, sir, always have good cura tricks for the same goal and it's awesome. It's free, it's practical and I appreciate that!

    • @FilamentFriday

    • @LuLeBe
      @LuLeBe 2 роки тому +1

      Biggest upgrade you can make is firmware tweaks after that. Go look into linear advance etc to improve quality at high speeds above like 70mm/s for walls (meaning 140mm/s with stock cura config), that way you can get an ender 3 to roughly 150mm/s, provided you have good enough cooling.
      Of course the model itself makes the biggest difference though.

    I'm new. I finally got my printer about 2 months ago now. Of course, I've been watching videos, and learning the ropes for several years now. There is still so much to learn, but I'm enjoying the learning process. It's different between watching the videos before, and after, getting a printer. Watching before getting a printer was generalized in my mind. Now that I have a printer to apply things too, it's much more specific. Much more detail oriented. Thank you for all the help, and sharing your wisdom with us.

  • @TurboSqu1d
    @TurboSqu1d 3 роки тому +1

    Very smart use of slicer settings and infill pattern.
    This trick also simplify the modeling, you save time since you don't need to create the pattern, instead of that you rely on the slicer to do it for you.
    Another benefits, you can change the pattern without changing the model, and you can print a closed version.
    As said very smart, thank you for sharing.

      @dftdbs1010 2 роки тому

      Pfft. Dude, infill is something anyone truely dedicated to 3D priting will know, its like not knowing how to format your ink print. You may not know this but ink printers all the way back to the 90's can print in different formats, making your image/text larger or smaller etc. The most basic of skills when it comes to printing. Fan speed, infill speed, nozzle temperature, supports, are all things you have to be familiar with to print usable things.

  • @Xploit66
    @Xploit66 3 роки тому +10

    If for some reason you really wanted the design to match perfectly, you could export a second arm that was just the "infill" portion you wanted to change. Line it up in Cura and use that to modify it to print as infill. I use that trick for things all the time when I want specific sections to print infill only but theyre irregularly shaped. The trick to getting it lined up easily is to put a super small of set line around the entire model.(kind of like a skirt) so small that cura doesnt try to print it, but that basically makes both models the same size so all you have to do to line it up is select them both and center it. If that makes sense.

    • @Blissful_Soundscapes

      Do you happen to have a link or anything illustrating this...? I'm new to 3d printing and this ALMOST makes sense to me... LOL

    • @zioxei
      @zioxei 2 роки тому

      @@Blissful_Soundscapes if you model something on your own then you put a pixel thin square around your item. So in case you want to split your model into two pieces Cura will judge the shape of it by that thin square instead of the shape of your model. The square stays the same so the two pieces will fit together. Without the square the different pieces will not align if you try to center them on your printer bed. Then you just select the infill model and set wall count and top/bottom layers to 0.
      btw I'm also trying to figure this thing out just as I read his comment, lol. I haven't even modelled anything yet.
