Re: Vase Mode creates two walls

Thanks.
The part had to be drawn with 0.5mm thick walls for the mid section, the rest was much thicker. Anyway ticking that box makes it work, that's all I care about.

Re: Vase Mode creates two walls

Fixed it, but not by working on the problem, more just luck. I watched a couple of videos on S3D & vase mode and in one of them the fellow mentioned the settings in the attachment, but not to fix the multiple-wall problem. I tried it anyway and it worked. 'Non Manifold Segments to Discard' And t...

Vase Mode creates two walls

I'm trying to print a particular part and in the region that's in vase mode it prints with two walls. I've selected one wall thickness and even tried zero walls, but two still happen. I've confirmed that with physical prints. On another part - just a plain cylinder to test further, it does have just...

Re: Newbie PETG Issues

Another thing you can do to help the part(s) cool before the nozzle gets back over them again is to print several parts widely spaced around the bed, so the extruder unit takes more time to get back to that part.

Re: Why has Simplify3D been abandoned ?

I'd suggest that everyone here get a copy of the Print Quality pages, if/when S3D folds so you have a copy of the good advice on those pages.

Re: Is there a 'ruler' available?

Not exactly what you want, but whenever you modify the part by re-sizing, rotating, etc, the XYZ box shows how large that model is in each dimension.

What filament are you using? It sounds like PETG, which does that a fair bit.

GCode Z-height isn't working

I'm running a Cocoon Create (I3 clone) with a Bigtreetech SKR V1.3 32 bit board, and a BLTouch. I'm trying to get the right starting offset for the first layer by entering the Z-offset height in the GCode tab. Nothing I've tried seems to make the slightest difference, it's still running the nozzle h...
