Is this unique feature of Makerbot or because the material being used? I never get this 100% infill issue but my experience limited to PLA and never used Makerbot.


It's a Makerbot issue. They use a closed firmware and closed host. The user has very little control of any of the printer settings.  You Basically pick between Low, Medium, or High quality.

I talked to Makerbot support this morning and was informed that when  printing with 100% infill you will typically get
over extrusion.


Nice they did not mention that in the manual.. Although most of the time 80 to 90% is close enough to solid there is not much difference in strength.

Thanks Carl
I will recheck filament dia.

I tend to agree.  Looking at the top surface, the jagged junction between the square perimeter and diagonal fill are an indicator for me.

Since you are on a Makerbot it may be hard to dial it in. I can't remember how much liberty their Host and firmware gives a user.
