.1mm Robot Chess King

Very nice, definitely interested to see how it is with a fan going. Can you post what program/settings you used to slice/generate gcode?

This was Slic3r.  I haven't been able to get it to work with Skeinforge.  If a part of the layer might have the fill exposed due to the layer above being set back too far, SF will make it a solid layer.  As a result, it kept putting a lot of solid layers in, which piled up more and more plastic until the nozzle would start dragging in it.  It also wasn't good for cooling.   All the extra layers also meant the SF version was going to take 2 hours longer to print than SLic3r.

It's 105mm tall, and took about 5.5 hours to print.  A .3mm should be 1/3 the time.  I set the layer height to .1mm, and 1st layer to .3mm.  Cooling activated with a 20 sec minimum layer time.  I have my Extrusion Multiplier set to .92, but that will depend on how your own printer and plastic performs.

Thread width shouldn't be much less than the nozzle size, which is .35.  Slic3r will calculate thread width automatically.  SF sets it as a ratio of width to height.  The default there is 1.4 which gives .42mm thread at .3mm layers.  If you change the layer height to .1, that will make a width of .14 which is too small.  So if you want to try .1mm layers in SF, you should set the width to height ratio in Carve to something closer to 3.5.
