			<description><![CDATA[<p>Using a Solidoodle 3 (PLA from FoxSmart,&nbsp; clean glass bed). I recently tried printing the set of test objects in the &quot;Make 2015 3DP Test Probes&quot;.&nbsp; [Google it, the forum won&#039;t allow me to post a link.]</p><p>Extruder: 185, Bed: 65, mix of Sli3er and Cura, mix of 0.1 and 0.2 layers.</p><p>1. Dimensional Accuracy: 4</p><p>Average deviations in X/Y were certainly under 0.2 mm, but I can&#039;t read any more accurately on my calipers. Using sli3er there are some obvious z-ribs (not z-wobble) so there may need to be some adjustments to layer height to clean it up the rest of the way.</p><p>2. Bridging Performance: 2</p><p>Sagging infill on top two bridges.&nbsp; The tops of each bridge are clean, so the sagging is n&#039;t so bad that it can&#039;t recover.&nbsp; This was printed using Cura on medium speed.&nbsp; Adding a fan to cool the filament as it is extruded would really help on this one.&nbsp; Slowing down the print and using larger filament sizes might help as well.</p><p>3. Overhang Performance: 4</p><p>No dropped loops, no dropped perimeters.&nbsp; The 60 and 70 degree angles were visibly rougher than the backs of the other angles.</p><br /><p>4. Negative Space Tolerances: 3</p><p>Three of the pins came out.&nbsp; Cura did a better job on this than Sli3er, but it appears that Cura does not retract as well as sli3er, which led to bridges that held in the last two pins.&nbsp; I think I can get to a 4 or 5 with more adjustments of speed and extrusion.</p><p>5. Find Positive Space Features Performance: 3</p><p>There are a few fine whispies between spires, so by the definitions this has to be a 3.&nbsp; Otherwise quality when printed with 0.1 was excellent.&nbsp; Some visible z-ribs, so further adjustments necessary to get higher than a 4.</p><p>6. Mechnical Resonance in XY: 2</p><p>Sli3er smoked cura on this one.&nbsp; I tried printing both the thick and thin walled ones.&nbsp; &nbsp;Sli3er had no visible rippling on the tick walled one and barely visible ripples near the notch and one corner in the one with 0.1 walls.&nbsp; Speed and flow settings need significant adjustment before Cura can handle this - blobs, lifted corners, blobs near corners and notch.</p><p>7. Mechanical Resonance in Z: 2</p><p>Very straight.&nbsp; No loss of registration, no ripples.&nbsp; Sliced with Cura at 0.1975.</p>]]></description>
