Topic: Amazing consistent prints with these Slic3r settings

I have finally gotten my Solidoodle 3 to print amazing parts consistently.  Attached is the first set of screen shots of my settings for others to try!

One thread is enough. Please post the remaining two pics here as a reply.

I imagine no one will try your settings unless you post up pics of the results.

Wow sorry. The pictures are posted right under the text.  Can you not see them?

Only pictures of settings.   There aren't any pictures of prints.

I wouldn't, but then again, I'm in the same boat.  I don't mind the speed as I get prints that are as good as I want them.  Could they be better?  Sure, but I like my calibration the way that it is.

Do what works and gets the results you're looking for.

You are far more skilled than I - I was just being sassy. 99% of my prints are just rectangles, so it's easy to go faster.

Hoppers, Tim... Really?  I'd say you should have better use for your time, but each hopper generates $$$, so I am in no position to talk... wink

I think I'm going to have to try ysb's bombshell print... just because I think it'll be a cool show piece... and let's face it, "bombshell."  Not your usual firearm, is it?

You would not believe how many people buy with hoppers than without. My SD3 is running 12 hours a day (when I'm home to feed it) to keep up.

And your filastruder(s) is/are running that same time-frame to keep the feeders up as well, I would guess.

The hoppers aren't hard to print, if you have a printer... some probably just don't bother.  I got the KS pre-built model just so I wouldn't have to wait to start making filament, but I have to make sure that I print one and have a spare...

devsidell,
sorry for hijacking the thread.  You're doing some good stuff, I would guess, but as the saying goes... "Pics or it didn't happen" wink  I would love to see what you're up to!
