I print my ABS model. It prints beautifully (as in it looks great). When I flex spots that need to flex a little bit, the ABS just snaps off. I am using only finger pressure, not pliers mind you. I can just snap off a 5mm thick piece, with not a lot of effort.
This shouldn't be, so I am clearly doing something wrong.
I am printing eSun ABS at 235 C, bed at 100 C, .3mm layers and 50% infill. In fact, I can, with effort, break a 3cm construct along a layer line.
This suggests that the layers really are not fusing/bonding.
My printer is not in an enclosure, it is in my basement where it is always cool.
What should I do? to correct this. Please keep in mind that I cannot afford a huge enclosure...
Many thanks,
