Stringing is caused by the hot end being too hot for the fillament. I only use PLA and always printed at 200c, but I started to get a lot of stringing. I lowered the temp down to 197c and get a lot less stringing. I know it is not the same as you use, but it might help. I went to download the super slicer, which it did, but I had forgotten I already had it installed. lol. But I think it was an older version, so now, I have the latest version. Watching this video, I managed to 'pull' the model. I could never get to design and pull it into a 3d object on FreeCAD.
Thank you for watching the video. My printer doesn't like printing more than one instance of a model. It causes issues with print quality like excessive stringing but I accept I could tune the temperatures more. I just usually use the default preset that Super Slicer uses for printing without question. Since I modified the printer with a 1mm nozzle the presets don't work as well. I have to use presets for a .8 nozzle which may not be optimal. It prints very fast, very strong. With 1mm its fast but loses quality. Generally I print larger objects so speed is more important than quality. It should likely be printed on a printer with a .4 nozzle to get the best quality. Im so glad you were able to use `DSM. I tried FreeCad as well. DSM is much easier. DSM is very easy to learn by trial & error. Im totally self taught but also followed tutorials. Hopefully you should be able to get on better with it. I will be doing more projects coming up. Kind regards & best wishes.
@@NightStarLeafTech-vj3ez I am self taught too and still learning some stuff from watching your video's. I watch others too if I find a problem that I can't figure out. I use Cura 5.6.0 for the slicing and it upgraded to 5.7.0 and my printer stopped placing hte pla on the bed. I tried all sorts of settings and tried adjusting the z offset and nothingh worked. I uninstalled 5.7.0 and reverted back to 5.6.0 and found it was just as bad as the 5.7.0. Someone told me in a forum the updates write a patch in a copied part of hte last version and still uses the settings. I found hte original setting on my computer as it was dated hte date I installed it and reinstalled that one and everything was great. Printing has beed good since. I did use a lot of filament trying to sort out the problem with 5.7.0 though. If I could find a decent slicer which is just as easy to understand as cura, I think I would be happier. Cura is easy to understand and follow. Carry on with the vids I love learning more from you. Regards. Ian
@@ianallen2 You could try Prusa Slicer. Its pretty much similar to Super Slicer. I use Cura, Prusa Slicer & Super Slicer. They have different qualities. Principally I use the different ones to keep separate for different printers. I would heartily recommend Prusa Slicer if you are using an Ender 3. I have my Ender 3 running with Prusa Slicer. They are definitely worth the learning curve if you wish to try them. Each of the slicers have advantages and disadvantages. Most are available free. I normally use the free ones. I did try almost all of the free ones at some time but now use the 3 mentioned. If you choose to try Prusa Slicer, there is a set up wizard and you can choose the appropriate profile for your specific printer. Prusa have made these profiles available and they are ace IMHO. Quality is super right off the bat with little customisation needed, however you may find that Cura is better in some circumstances for some prints and these others better in others. The great thing is that because they are free you can have both or more. Whatever suits. I will be doing more with DSM coming up. I will go for a bit better quality next time. The CR10 likes single items when it will do not bad quality. I just did a box that was about 8 by 6 inches and about 6 inches tall. That was the long print I mentioned (16hrs). It worked great. Still not perfect quality but acceptable. It works but not the perfection that some like. Thanks for your comments and watching of course!
@@NightStarLeafTech-vj3ez Even on my printer, it doesnt like to print morethan one item at a time. It will mostly screw up on the second print, even if htey are on the same level and very close to one another. Stramnge, but it will print two perfectly when printing one at a time.

@@NightStarLeafTech-vj3ez Installed and they dont have the Ender 3 V3 SE. I think I have to go with either the Ender 3 V2 or the CR10.
