Re: Buildtak

Did you just got 203 x 203 and stick it directly to build plate? Do you have pictures of your prints on it?

Re: Buildtak

Really? That's cool! Can we see some pictures?

The MakerLab on my campus has Makerbots that use PLA, and they also use BuildTak. I never really thought of using it for ABS, but if it works, I'd be very curious to try it out.

Frustration is part of the process.

Re: Buildtak

yes i got the one 203 203  works realy great first the z offset was not good enough so i needed lower the z offset
if print  0.1 = z offset  0.09  0.2 = 0.19 0.3 = 0.29 or more just needs little bit more push to the bed then it sticks like glue no warping  the only bad thing is if the head crashing into bed  then it melts a hole .
i will buy a new one later this one works like a charm
