Was not happy with how slow it was so i thought lets see how the 3 nossle does. Well took the 1.7 off and found two huge metal shards took them out now bam. Runs like a dream]]>https://www.soliforum.com/user/13779/2016-02-28T17:17:39Zhttps://www.soliforum.com/post/118230/#p118230<![CDATA[Re: Filimant]]>That doesn't appear to be MG94. Other types of ABS have different flow rates.
You need to have a clear, unobstructed path from the nozzle to the floor. Letting the filament hit the table is going to cause problems.
Also your filament guide is too far from the nozzle, which causes waviness and kinks.

The Kickstarter kits were $200, so even with an upgraded motor the total cost is less than a current kit.]]>https://www.soliforum.com/user/221/2016-02-27T21:37:56Zhttps://www.soliforum.com/post/118164/#p118164<![CDATA[Re: Filimant]]>but for 70.00 is it really worth it]]>https://www.soliforum.com/user/13779/2016-02-27T18:56:11Zhttps://www.soliforum.com/post/118150/#p118150<![CDATA[Re: Filimant]]>The original Kickstarter motors were the slowest, there are considerably faster motors available now.]]>https://www.soliforum.com/user/221/2016-02-27T18:41:35Zhttps://www.soliforum.com/post/118147/#p118147<![CDATA[Re: Filimant]]>ok well wonder if my motor is going bad. It seems really slow. also noticed I had the heat band almost to the front moved it to the back end will try again when I get home to night and see if that made a difference, also adding insolation around the whole shaft]]>https://www.soliforum.com/user/13779/2016-02-27T17:12:57Zhttps://www.soliforum.com/post/118132/#p118132<![CDATA[Re: Filimant]]>That depends on the material you're using, at 180C you should see around 8-12 inches per minute with ABS (assuming you're using a Kickstarter setup, which I think you said you're are?)]]>https://www.soliforum.com/user/221/2016-02-27T05:18:33Zhttps://www.soliforum.com/post/118096/#p118096<![CDATA[Re: Filimant]]>what temp should I be using at 180 it seems to barely come out.]]>https://www.soliforum.com/user/13779/2016-02-27T05:12:20Zhttps://www.soliforum.com/post/118095/#p118095<![CDATA[Re: Filimant]]>There's no trick, what you see in the photo is all there is.]]>https://www.soliforum.com/user/221/2016-02-27T00:53:02Zhttps://www.soliforum.com/post/118069/#p118069<![CDATA[Re: Filimant]]>I can when I get home.
