Get the MOST out of Cura with EXTENSIONS!
I've been using Cura for a long, long time. Its been great but there are ways to make it better. In this video I go through my top extensions available to improve your experience with Cura and the general capabilities of the software. I also go over a new to 5.7 feature and discuss some things I would like to see in future updates.

GHOST BUSTING! A systematic approach to stop ghosting. also, should printers have shock absorbers?
มุมมอง 9K3 หลายเดือนก่อน
I got called out in my last video about fuzzy skin for having a bad printer, or at least in desperate need of tune up. Serious ghosting issues in my prints. So in this video I go through several settings and ways of tuning your printer to get rid of ghosting or ringing with a mix of hardware and software tuning. This includes belt tightening, speed changes, wall order, printer mounting surface,...
This one setting will take your 3d prints to the NEXT LEVEL!

Do you know about fuzzy skin? It is possibly the easiest and quickest way to improve the look of your 3d printed parts. Layer lines? GONE. Ghosting? GONE. Z Seam? GONE. In this video we dive deep into fuzzy skin and how this simple setting works. Once enabled, it is only two settings (thickness and density) to change and a nice textured surface gets added to your prints. Perfect for giving prin...

    It looks like one of the issues that your printer has is too low of a current on the x and y motors. It looks like you have layer shifting that could be resolved by increasing the current to your motors. Since you increased the tension of the belts, I thought that would have resolved some of the issue, but you might want to try adjusting the motor current. I hope this helps.

    This is a great video, I especially like your systematic approach with the tables to compare and the special test pieces. I wonder a little about some comments like" you have a poor printer" or "with clipper you nowadays have not such problems". First of all, it's a good idea to get the best out of the hardware you have. Also, from my point of view, it makes sense to get to the bottom of these problems like ghosting and understand them. Klipper does a similar thing in the end to avoid these effects. You shouldn't let know-it-alls get you down, I think both the approach and the execution of these videos are very good. And even if the fuzzy skin video had the idea of compensating for a few shortcomings, in the end it is a great video with the result of using the technology to get a different kind of printing surface. Please keep going creating such great content.

    • @willofthemaker
      @willofthemaker หลายเดือนก่อน

      Thanks so much! Very kind words. But ya there is a lot of great new tech that almost makes this moot. But people still have older machines or cheaper machines that might not be so feature rich so still good to know some of this stuff. I've had to focus on a couple other things (starting a business selling 3d prints I create) but should try and get back to video production soon!

      Is it in one axis? Like purely X or purely Y? If so you need to tune your steps per mm. Check out www.layerfused.com/3d-printer-calibration for a good calculator. I'd say TH-cam how to do it with Bambu. I'm not sure how to do that on those printers

    Texture the model in blender would be better. However, I see some other issues. You may want to check your belts. Tighten them a bit as your layer lines are not consistent. You're getting under extrusions, may be time to replace the nozzle or check the flow rates. Maybe turn line width up a little bit by like 0.1 or 0.2. That doesn't really look like ghosting, so much as you can see the grid infill. Use gyroid infill at like 13%. It'll be stronger and those vertical lines will improve. For the z-seam, turn on hiding, Smart hiding isn't very smart. Also, you could get a concrete slab to set the printer on. It'll take down vibration.

    TBH I'm a bit tired of ppl telling klipper here and there. Klipper is not the magic solution to all issues (Marlin has its own input shaper implementation since v2). If you get such massive ghosting etc, it's probably because your printer is not well tuned or you're simply asking too much. Even an old and ugly A8 can give out decent prints. And yeah, fuzzy skin is a good way to hide problems : D
