Anyone have any experience with Sulapac Filament?

Looking for something that isn’t plastic based. Seems interesting!

Man I love my new p1s this ender is problem after problem.

Anyone know what could have caused this enormous layer shift looking thing?

I am at a loss.

It's a stock ender 3 btw

Best free CAD? (zerobytes.monster)

I just got my 3D printer and am trying to get into making things through a CAD. I tried tinkercad and had fun with it, but would like to explore other free options (or at least ones that won’t break the bank). I bet this question has been asked a lot, so I’m sorry for bothering. I’ve just looked in a bunch of places and can’t seem to find an answer. Any answer is appreciated! Thank you!

I want to print PETG indoors, but just exhausting the air outside is pulling too much cold air into the enclosure, and causing layer adhesion issues.

Hi everyone, I'm currently having a hard time trying to fix an issue...

When I'm printing big flat surfaces like the one on the pictures, my first layer doesn't look good as you will see...

https://preview.redd.it/50e6youj7m9e1.jpg?width=742&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=d5154456e15cb4ac4da19dcdefdafd464ec1c8b7

My printer is an Elegoo Neptune 4 Plus (with latest firmware) and I'm using Orca Slicer 2.2.0, I'm using Elegoo black PLA+ for this example.

Temperatures are 210°C for the nozzle, 65°C for the bed.

What I tried so far is to do the Z-level procedure many times with both thickness gauge (0.1mm) and paper technique with hot bed. I didn't notice any improvements (I started from what I think is the good position then tried +/- 0.02mm with a step of 0.01mm).

I also did the screw tilt adjust procedure a couple of times then printer's auto bed leveling, my bed looks pretty flat in my opinion:

I would say it's more an "aesthetic" issue as my prints are more than fine in the end + it doesn't really appear on small prints but I'm a bit fussy and trying to fix this drives me a bit mad.

What parameters can I tune to improve that?

Thank you for your help!

Looking to pay for a few Patreon pages. Would be awesome to find someone that was geared towards hunting items as well as someone that designed little fidget toys for the kids. Suggestions?

Just got my 3d printer. Based on fumes and whatnot, should I set it up in the office or the garage? Plan on printing mostly in PLA+

Hi, I am a college student looking for remote printing solutions. I have six Ender 3 v3 SEs, and just want to add remote printing and camera monitoring capability. It seems like ESP3D fits well for this use case, but I have seen very low coverage across YouTube and Reddit. Is there a reason why the adoption is so low? What are the drawbacks of ESP3D compared to Octoprint?

Scan to stl? (zerobytes.monster)

I have an adjustment guide that is made from paper. I would like to print this so it is more durable. But has curved and radius lines.

Any apps that I could scan and it would convert the image to stl or other file type I could then bring into fusion or tinkercad.

So I don't know the command that I need to put in the gcode that waits to cool down to a certain temp before doing the auto eject and can it heat up for the next
