Is there any trick to printing columns (for example, a window pane)? All of the columns are square and 2.5 mm + in thickness, but when I print the model, it prints a very frail, spiral column. Any thoughts would be great Thanks
When you say 'window pane' that implies to me the actual glass, but then you talk about columns... The more info you can give the better, really: - what material are you printing in? - what software are you using? - any images you can share? Links to your model on SW? Files?
Ah yes - I meant window Frame, not pane Printing PLA Using Skeinforge (50) with Replicator G. Tried infill between 30-100%, printing at 0.27 mm, 230 C, upgraded the extruder (spring and bearing), print rate of 88 mm/s (with 0.3 ratio for base and perimeter layers).
Sorry, can't help. I use Shapeways services and they use sintering printers. Have you tried a specific forum for your printer?
