I am back to 3d printing.
Looking around for something to print that is usable.
just printed 2 soap boxes for my granddaughter, she will be on her way to college soon :-)
I use PETG filament
using the Ultimaker Cura 4.10 program for settings, slicing etc...
we figured our for our 3d printer:
I am using the Creality - Cr 10S pro v2 printer - auto correction - BLTouch sensor to detect exactly how far away the nozzle is from the bed.
Measures all the glass bed with points(16 I believe) to determine the ideal setting
I always level it first myself.
"glass" bed = 87 nozzle = 238 speed = I start at 25, then I move up - depending on what you are printing fan off Z = -2.29
These settings work great for me. You may need to tweak a bit for your machine.
Make surer you tighten the printer head (nozzle) so there is no play in it- tighten everything
found out some things are better printing at a slower speed
On to my next print
PS,
I do want to thank NallyCat, Nomad, RoBoHappy and others for getting me interested in 3d printing

Anyone 3d printing lately?
I have. Mostly work related stuff, nothing robotic at the momentm but some neat little things people have asked for.

For work, a SD card connector cover for an upcoming product (still a wip)
Jewerly cases. these were fun to print. Found on thingiverse.hi all
am printing the famous M1 GARAND with working inside.
Thanks RoboHappy,
seems 3d printing is hard to come by
