Topic: Slic3r giving me hell AGAIN

I had to uninstall and reinstall RH...after doing so (with same settings as I used before) Slic3r does this (on left, Cura on right) I had this problem when I first started and forgot wth I did to fix it. No matter what I tinker w it still slices and prints like preview. Not solid, gaps, flimsy...junk. Both sliced at .3 100% infill

Re: Slic3r giving me hell AGAIN

Looks like you have an extrusion width set incorrectly.
Try these settings.

Still junk slices. Slic3r does .1 as it should but .3 is being pita

Re: Slic3r giving me hell AGAIN

use .2963 and it may be worth your time to calibrate single wall (.48 mm) for extrusion multiplier setting using a layer height of .2963

Re: Slic3r giving me hell AGAIN

Thats what its at after whatever post I made that number was suggested. And did a single wall and it was perfect give or take .02

Re: Slic3r giving me hell AGAIN

Thats why I have no idea what the deal is. I like Cura just fine and does well, just puzzled why this is rearing its head again and/or at all w Slic3r

Re: Slic3r giving me hell AGAIN

I hate to beat a dead horse here but, that looks like an extrusion width setting issue.
or is that infill and you don't have it at 100%?

Re: Slic3r giving me hell AGAIN

Post your eeprom settings dialog, and slic3r ini again. Attach the ini, don't paste. Also the stl you're trying to print if you don't mind

Re: Slic3r giving me hell AGAIN

you are under-extruding, bump up that e steps per mm to 210 (105 * 2 = 210 for 1/32 microstepping) and re-do the calibration cube test

ill look at your settings in a bit, i had a hard drive crash so im reinstalling everything as we speak

Re: Slic3r giving me hell AGAIN

hmm.. your settings actually seem fine except your nozzle diameter is off - it is set as 0.42 mm. this is probably messing with the toolpath preview and it showing things just a tad further apart because of it. your machine has a 0.4 mm nozzle, so set that under printer settings -> extruder 1.

so bump up that e steps per mm, calibrate with a cube, set your diameter to 0.4 and try again. should work fine.

Re: Slic3r giving me hell AGAIN

Staring at print from front the measurement is .49, left .49, rear .49 and right .51

Re: Slic3r giving me hell AGAIN

Take the average of all those and then do .48/average. That is your extrusion multiplier.

Edit: oh, just use .49 if only one is off. So it'll be .48/.49 = 0.979 = 0.98

Re: Slic3r giving me hell AGAIN

The thing is the gap indicates the size of the extrusion lines. It doesn't mean there will be a gap in the actual print. It's awkward but that's how they chose to do it.

Re: Slic3r giving me hell AGAIN

That does seem to be the case, Jago. Left is Slic3r, right Cura. Printed solid and fine minus stringy bits. Thanks for info and help

Re: Slic3r giving me hell AGAIN

Your retraction is too slow, I'm guessing, because 1mm is more than enough. Try 70mm/s

I think you are either squishing the walls of the cube too much or your calipers are poorly calibrated/sloppy. From my experience with a .4 on an e3dv6, your extrusion multiplier should be lower if e steps is properly set.
