Scale issue on import

I have read many threads here about importing and exporting stl files and scaling issues. None of them address what I am seeing. I use 3D Studio Max and no matter what type of units I set it to when I import an OBJ it is always off scale. Clicking on the auto adjust scale option makes it worse. It s...

Filament curls around nozzle and doesn't stick

Hi I am new to Simplify 3D and filament extrusion printers. I recently bought a monoprice dual head extruder printer. I swapped out the nozzle it came with, with a .2mm one from Micro Swiss. My coworker has the exact same setup and he is having great results. He setup a test print for me to try. It ...
