Thread: Settings?

Thanks, , Mike. the reason I backpedalled on what I said was that the Overture filament I was using said 25°-60°. The FlashPrint Slicer put 40° in, but that probably was my fault, not its.

Does your printer sit in an enclosure? Warping can be minimised by slowing the cooling of the model after printing. The smallest air movement will whip the temperature out of the hot print, making it cool faster and exacerbate any warping. Of course cooler ambient winter temps make things worse again. My printer sits in a coreflute enclosure, which the printer itself keeps nice and warm inside when operating.

Except, when I came down this morning I found that the filament had bound on the spool, snapped, and the thing had been printing fresh air for around ten hours... ☹️
The FF does not have a filament out switch, it does not have a pause/restart function, and it is infamously untinkerable... It's a bit like a D2, so many things you don't know you need until you own one.
