Standard A4 size paper and feeler gauges are most common. Example: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9JAlERd41NQ
Dial gauges also work well, but require a bit of customization to your 3d printer. Example: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YE5Hr2b3sMY

If a print is interrupted, and you attempt to start a new print, the machine will need to be homed or at the very least be told what position the extruder is currently sitting at. If your printer has a print resume function, this is typically preferred to attempting to manually setup a second print ...

Can you upload a factory file? It's hard to say for sure what is causing this without looking at much more than printing temperature, infill% and # of top layers.

With a 7mm retraction distance, I assure you the profile hosted on that wiki page is not for a direct drive extruder design. The XML of the file even says that the profile is a copy of the CR-10. You'd likely be better off starting from the S3D stock CR-10 profile and changing just a few things. I'v...

Total newbie here, so please be kind.... How do i get these top surfaces to fill solid? https://ibb.co/Y4s53qK You may need to change your "Internal Thin wall Type" to allow single extrusions. If you attach your factory file everyone could look more closely at your extrusion settings and what setti...

Hello,
Prime pillar is continued after the last material transition. It's useless. Could you fix it please ?

You can stop the prime pillar using multiple processes.

This is great. It should also display which extruder controller is chosen for each type of speed adjustment. Because Simplify3D allows for different features such as infill, support, and perimeters to have different extruders assigned to them. And those controllers can each have their own extrusion ...

After another test here is what I get: https://partage3d.fr/images/fileuploaded/510_collide.PNG A collide inside the base for the second part! Any idea to fix this? The nozzle can't swivel to allow you to print in those corners. You need to measure what your sequential printing clearances are for y...

Nice! That was a convinient solution but I can't combine it with sequential printing :

Why can't you? There are multiple models and a process for each one, correct?

I've a, in my opinion, fairly decent guide on how to do this already in Simplify3D. https://forum.simplify3d.com/viewtopic.php?f=8&t=5977&p=25950#p25947 It focuses on adding speed to autoconfigure sections. But after you've done that you can easily remove the other settings in the autoconfigure "blo...
