1950 Chicago Coin Bowling Classic

White is such a @$#@#% to print.
This was a fresh roll of ASA. 1st 5 prints had layer adhesion issues @ 275C print temp and very bad Z banding. If I had not just printed the pins in ABS to tweak, it would have made me look into my printer mechanics. Maybe the 1st so many feet of filament was wet? Seems like it.. After about 5-10 prints the Z banding went away and printed these at 265C, 30% fan, 3.5S min layer time, heated chamber of 62C. Can't really print this fast(this was 300mms/18K, but long layer time. The more I blasted air to speed it up, the worse the layer adhesion was. But.. this was when I was tuning a fresh roll. I didn't want to force the issue to crank it up and just get them finished.
The lesson learned... filament can cause all kinds of problems that make you think it's something else. Layer adhesion, stringing, chalky prints, Z banding. For the Z banding, maybe that was a filament diameter issue changing.
I set this up for 1 pin print, then sent 2, then 8. 1 seemed to be the same as 2 and 2 the same as 20.
These are pins for a 1950 Chicago Coin Bowling Classic coin machine restoration.

What do you use to lubricate the rails? I have a vzbot that I built with custom dimensions and just installed the 516-0 with 48v, was wondering what your steps are to push higher speeds and accels

Chevron Black pearl SRI. Temp, fan, tuning flow, and a good rigid X beam for corexy.
