Really really stoked to seemingly have kicked my warp problem. I really think that these parts are some of the best of my 3d printing tenure. under the advice of @Thomas_Sanladerer I went out and got some glue sticks. I wasnt able to get Tesa locally like he suggested so I just got one of every kind Walmart carried. Turned out the frist one I tried Elmers Craft Bond works amazingly for both ABS and PLA.
These parts are all @Coex3D ABS, printed on an e3D_v5 hotend at 120c to glass covered in glue stick. .2mm layers, 20% rectilinear infill, sliced in Simplify3D. Most of the parts were printed with no raft or brim, except the bearing holders as there isn’t much contact area with the bed.
Great job man. Just out of curiosity how long does it take you bed to hit 120c?
about 20 minutes which is annoying but tolerable. I have a 24v kapton heater from trinity labs(RIP) and the one i got from you to try on the next build.
We use UHU Stic which has totally changed the way I print ABS. It sticks amazingly well, better than ABS juice even, better yet it detaches by itself as it cures. Makes printing ABS a dream. So much cheaper easier and less hassle than ABS juice or Kapton, with better results.
UHU Also works for:
Polycarbonate
PET type filaments like TGlase and _XT
PLA of every weird variety.
Everything flexible, NinjaFlex, Flex PLA etc
HIPS, ABS-PC, All the Lay-xxx filaments.
The only thing that it doesn’t stick well is POM and FEP. No surprises there though!
UHU was what I was looking for but couldnt find locally. I could buy it off every office stores website though. Im going to order some this week to do some comparisons, but man Im still floored at the prints I got this weekend. I need to change my glass out though. I am printing on 1/4" tempered on the advice of the glass store. Its worked well for about 6 months now but started to shell this weekend. Ill probably order some borosilicate from @LulzBot this weekend.
