Towards the end of 2022 I swapped two of our Prusas in the print farm out for a Voron 2.4R2 300mm LDO kit. Here’s my ownership experience to date. The initial build used the following: The Octopus pin chart helped. After some tweaking via the tuning guide and then using the great PIF profiles I […]
I built a Voron 2.4 to try to print faster than my faithful Prusa farm units could manage, but when trying to set expectations I found frustratingly few hard numbers in terms of what kind of volumetric flow people were achieving with a similar setup. In some ways that’s not surprising since a lot of […]
These are the settings I use for printing the wargaming terrain we sell. These work on our Prusa Mk3S printers and may require tweaking when applied to other printers – take them as a starting point. I find that 0.2mm layer height works as a good compromise between speed and quality, where if you want […]
This relates to our Kickstarter, and covers both PrusaSlicer and Cura approaches to printing the objects without supports. I’d strongly suggest using PrusaSlicer (which works with machines other than Prusas, including Enders) given the added convenience of the ability to choose the bridging angle as you’ll see below. By default, most slicers seem to use […]
These are on a Mars 2 Pro printer with a screen protector in place. These figures are for the Anycubic Eco Pink resin. Chitubox settings: Bottom Layer Count: 7 Bottom Exposure Time: 32s Wait Mode During Printing: Resting Rest Time Before Lift: 0 Rest Time After Lift: 0 Rest Time After Retract: 0.5s Bottom Lift […]
Following one of our printers suffering a bearing failure and trashing the linear rod, we replaced them with the following: PSFJ8-370 x2 PSFJ8-330 x2 PSFJ8-320 x2 LM8UU x10 With freight it ended up being about $200AUD for the lot. These have close to 10K print hours on them with no issues, and they’re less noisy […]
