A bit of a disclaimer on my "time" stamps. By the time I realized my computer's time was not shown in my real start photo (5:50pm) I was on layer 4. I retook another photo, and that's why it shows a time of 5:51pm. As it stands, my 5:50pm start time can only be called "unofficial". The end time, however, was official at 5:58pm (I have no idea how many seconds, so this is all a bit silly anyway).

So, to be fair, 2n2r5's time still stands as the winner, easily. But I was close, damn close...

That was fun, thanks 2n2r5.

BTW, my perimeter speed setting in Slic3r was 100mm/sec, and I cranked the multiplier up to 300 after about 10 seconds of print time. Never once did the printer reach anywhere near these speeds, you know that, right?

When you go to print are you actually using the "Speed Maze" setting to slice?

Yes, this is a separate profile I created just to see what it would take to get to the 15 minute 'default' settings mark. The normal profile I use, which has slightly increased speeds, is reporting 21.5m using a .3mm layer height.

Edit: 21m included 4 solid base layers. Came out well, though there is some slight stringing and a thin hole lined up with one of the walls in the inner maze.

I gave this a shot, and it turned out quite nicely I think, but this sort of print isn't what is really challenging my printer.

It did lift a little, but I'm hoping to see the end of that problem when my glass arrives.

As always I am interested what other people may notice about the print.

This was printed using the 'default' Solidoodle .1mm profile, at 150% feedrate, 125% flowrate.

+1 Your machine is calibrated nice.

here is my attempt with abs clear and non moist

had to back my retraction off to 0.5mm kept getting holes on the starts

Save that clear abs. you will need it for the next SYTYCP challenge. Nice print!

I had to crank my speeds to 100mm/sec and layer height of .35mm just to get the ETA down to ~ 15min. What am I doing wrong here?

elmoret and I have been pushing our printers hard. I regularly print at 100mm/sec for best results on my printer.  I have just completed a new Linear bearing mod, and have yet to push it. I have tried the above print and a few others and been happy with the results except corners and starts.  Need to get a cooling fan installed to help with that.

Hey Nlancaster if you don't mind sharing what mods have you done to your solidoodle to achieve prints at speed rate?

how do you guys get those good prints at those speeds?

here is mine at 50 mms per sec ahahah

so what is the regular print speed that you guys usually use?

150mm/s. that's not really "normal" though. I'd say most people use 60mm/s.
