Printed Piece Coming Off Support

Every time I try to print a round object on the bottom, like a ball, the round object comes off the support during printing. So mid-print the object releases and the printer then just prints a stringy mess in air. The support structure stays in place on the bed. Any tips on what I need to fix in ord...

Can See Model Detail in Print

I am having trouble with models I design. I can see the underlying structure I built the STL file with, the circles, lines, rectangles, etc. I am using Fusion 360 for design. I'm not sure where to start, but thought I'd toss it out here to see if anyone has ideas... Below is an image from Simplify 3...

Flashforge and Speed

I have two Flashforge printers, creator and pro. I'd like to try to get as much speed out of them as possible at each quality. The default in Simplify 3D is 3600mm/sec. Has anyone tweaked this? What speeds are you able to successfully print? I only use ABS.

Thanks in advance!

Two Different Printers From Simplify 3D

I now have a Flashforge Creator Dual and a Flashforge Creator Pro that I would like to be able to print to from Simpilfy 3d on the same Mac computer. I've heard of people doing similar, however I have not seen any details. I just got the Pro so I have been resetting Simpilfy 3d to change the printer...

Looking For a New Printer

I am looking to get another 3D printer. I currently have a Flashforge Creator Dual Wooden model. I've added a glass bed, a top and plexiglass sides along with filling all of the holes to give me a semi-sealed print area. I'd like this machine to be a backup machine as well as an experimental machine...
