]]>]]>you don't need to change the screws, just remove the stock nuts from underneath the bed and screw those thumbscrews on in place of them.
Stock SD2 does not have nuts of any kind under the platform.
If you prefer printing ABS, an enclosure is absolutely crucial. Most of us use acrylic panels, but as stated, you can even use cardboard, construction paper....the list goes on. Just keep in mind the flash point of any material you use for said enclosure.
Maybe this link will get some ideas going? http://www.soliforum.com/topic/5480/sho … our-cases/
it always breaks away after the 6-10th layer ....
]]>As for a case - you can easily make something on your own. Many use plexiglass sides so they can see into the case while printing. Cardboard is also usable, but I would not leave the printer unattended if using that (fire potential). thin sheets of foil backed styrofoam insulation board work well, too, as does foam-core poster board. A little imagination goes a long way here.
]]>First of all the configuartion from Repetier Host (Lastest version means Latest downloadable version)
The problem is, that all my prints start doing well and after the 6. layer the print loose from the Heated Bed.
My heated bed does not raise over 93° C. I dont use a Case for my SD2 Pro as it wa snot delivered.
I use a GlasBed and hairspray.
i want to use these http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:36939 so i change the default screws? because i dont rly. know where to connect the Thumbscrew with the bedlevelscrews.

Iam using my SD2 with a GlasBed
Thanks alot
also witch version of RH and Slic3r do you call latest? I find some versions are easier to work with on my SD2 so I have at least 3 but the newest one requirs deleting all versions b4 1.0 and I prefer running RHv0.86b / Slic3r 0.9.9dev and sometimes RH 0.95f / Slr 1.0.0RC3 as these are the only recent ones that can be installed on same computer use seperatly. all newer versions requir removal of any old versions and are what I call dumbed down so not as flexible especially on pre-repairs with a quick netfab app built in that wont proceed to print till its satisfied file is repaired enough. and I have several STL file repair tools for this. and Azerate is correct about settings. I have dozens with minor changes to each for different items printed and file name reflects changes/what its used for. took me months to learn how to save them and select/rename file each time saved. I have began changing the ones that start with Solidoodle to SD so its short enough to read full name in pull down menus which do not expand like most on the older versions. but if you change a name of a file the old file/name is still there until deleted. you also need to back track where these files folder are saved so you can backup a copy for updates to Slic3r and restore them in any new versions.
]]>]]>So let us start with your settings. We can give empirical observations and suggest changes if needed.
Please give a full detail of any modifications you have made to the printer. Stock acrylic extruder? Stock hotend? Any mechanical or electrical change may also vary the setting.
