    Thanks Joel, great tip I bought S3D soon after buying my first 3D printer and it was the best upgrade I have subsequently used it on other machines I have built. I downloaded and printed this model on a newly built delta machine I am currently screwing around with. Dunno what to do with the model but it looks cool.

    I'm having tremendous problems with my Prusa I3 MK3 with the filament not sticking to the build plate. If I use nothing, it sticks very little or not at all - and I end up with the filament wrapped around the nozzle. I'm currently using Kapton tape, which seems to work pretty well, except for on any model taller than about an inch. I've also used that painter's blue tape - but it seems to sort of "melt" during the print, and it's really hard to get the piece off the build plate.
    Is there any other kind of substance / material that I could use to aid in adhesion?

    Hi Joel, I came across this video about connected surfaces and used it in another way to save a very cool dragon model. The model is beautifully done, but was put together in sections with overlap. By having S3D separated the connected surfaces, grouping them, and then adding the process, it made it a complete model. Null spaces in the center of the wing/body connected area and the head/neck connected are now slice properly? or infill properly. I have been printing for a 5 days, but watching your channel mostly has shown me enough to know there is almost always a way to fix something and as Thomas Edison said, "genius is one percent inspiration and ninety-nine percent perspiration." I just used some of your work in figuring out settings and identifying where the defect was (the hole) that was causing the gap. Do you have other tips on the software side for fixing models? I have seen your videos on trouble shooting the hardware.

    hi, I had a serious problem, I created support in meshmixer like separate models, I import model and support (model) in simplify3d but where I started to print I don't see nothing like slicing. I tried model separated and works, I tried to separate connected surface, but problem still remains. Can you help me? Please I am going crazy

    It's a problem in the source mesh for shure. If you look at it directly on thingiverse (with the model-view) you can position your camera inside the rocket-drives and see that column in the center already. I then tryed to import the STL into my CAD-tool and it never managed to load it in correctly (and I had loaded some pretty badly broken and huge meshes in that same software before without any problems). So something is really terribly wrong with the mesh.

    • @3DPrintingNerd

      +ExtraBase Oh wow, bad mesh? Crazy. I'm happy mine was able to print at all, then!

    Flash Print didn't find any glitches in the base, Can you do a 2 perimeter vase mode in S3D?

      +Mickice No, I don't believe so.

  • @lumpy8111
    @lumpy8111 8 лет назад

    Hi Joel, As always I really enjoy your vids. I was aware of this feature but never have I printed anything in vase/spiral mode. I'm going to give it a whirl tonight. I noticed you flipped your model by doing a X rotation -90. Not sure if you are aware of CTRL-L? You hit CTRL-L and click the surface you want to place on the bed. Works quick. Anyhoo. #HighFive

    For everyone else not using Simplify3D, most other slicers also have this ability. It'll usually be called Split or Separate Shells, but they function the same. If your slicer doesn't have that ability, Meshmixer also has a separate shells feature you can use!

    • @3DPrintingNerd
      @3DPrintingNerd  8 лет назад +1

      +Hoffman Engineering Hey, thanks for the tip! I did this in Simplify3D because that's just the slicer I use, and I'm very glad you were able to get some good info out for everyone else that doesn't use it. Right on! #highfive

    This is great but there's so many ways to fix a problem like this, you should really try out Meshmixer, for small fixes it's fast and a 5 year old can handle it. Just hit the make solid button and it gets rid of any inner shells or non manifold edges. Give it a go, I think you would like it.

    Hey Joel...did you hear that Solidoodle apparrently announced yesterday that they are shutting their doors? Looks like another 3d printing company shutting down...the phenomenon is starting to look more and more like the dot com bust...more and more 3d printing companies are going under but as of right now there seem to be new companies coming into existence as fast as old ones are going under. Do you think that the world is ready for 3d printing? What do you think about the fate of 3d printing...my suspicion is that 2 or 3 3d printing companies will rise to the top and dominate which has already pretty much happened. Im curious about your take on this new developement.
