Re: Polycarbonate Spool

I have used eSun ePC white and natural with good success. i printed with a nozzle temp of 300C. Bed was PEI over Aluminum at 110C. GIzmodorks Black PC was a waste. Never got more than a few layers to lay down before the parts would peel. ePC Black also printed poorly with lousy layer adhesion. I have a Makergear M2.

Re: Polycarbonate Spool

Thanks , I still have some problems with bed adhesion. My extruder does not reach 300° might be the issue.
