I revived our very small pool today because it's starting to be hot outside.
One of the O-Rings had disintegrated and i already hat a trip to the hardware store today and it was closed by now.
So, I just loaded up the, at least 5 year old, Ninjaflex filament in my #prusamk4 and #3dprinted a new one in less than 10 minutes including "cad" (if you can call making 2 concentric circles that :) )
That's what i love about #3dprinting
Irgendjemand fragte mich vor einer Weile, ob ein Upgrade vom #PrusaMK4 auf den #PrusaMK4S etwas bringt. Ich hab heute das Upgrade fertiggestellt. Das Upgrade enthält … -temperaturbeständigere Teile, die höhere Drucktemperaturen ermöglichen. - eine 'Nozzle-Sock' die die Temperatur am … 👇🏻
Of course, this requires flawless interaction between the MK4(S) and MMU3 at the hardware level. I had some initial problems with this, but they had nothing to do with Octroprint.
In the meantime, I have made some extensions [(un)original heatbox, different buffer system, housing and a few other small things] so that I could start production.
I used the part cancellation feature for the first time today and I'm pretty happy about how well it worked. Not having to cancel the whole print saved a lot of time and material.
Wieder was erledigt. Jetzt neu: MK4S
Today I’ve advanced to a next level of 3D printing fan club.
Yesterday, when printing a part for my son’s base the printer went awry and messed it up. I’ve stoped it in the middle of printing. I’ve then tried a tiny few minute model, and it failed.
I’ve decided to run printer calibration and to my surprise it failed. I’ve rerun it 3 times with same result: Y-axis cannot be calibrated.
I’ve spend some time searching and it seemed that a Y-axis belt may be incorrectly fastened. I’ve used Prusa app to check it, but it seemed good.
I’ve been wondering what else may be wrong and had an “aha” moment and decided to check all screws. That’s how I’ve found out that the screws on this little piece have loosen themselves and were causing a slip when an engine was trying to push the printing bed really fast.
Now it works and I can go back and print the joints ;-)
Anyone know why the middle 80-90% of my prints are like this? It's all ripply and rough.
Guessing:
- warped print sheet
- uneven heating or cooling
- printing too hot
Printer: Prusa Mk4
Filament: generic black PETG
This probably isn’t going to end well. #3dprinting #prusa3d #prusamk4

I've spent the better part of the last two days assembling a gadget called a "multiple materials unit" (MMU) from #Prusa3D for my #PrusaMk4. Assembly is done and and I'm about to start updating firmware and calibrating the components. Then a test print.
Wish me luck. It's equal parts exciting and terrifying. I'll be happy I pushed myself outside my comfort zone when it's working (and it WILL ultimately work). But I'm going to have a knot in my stomach until I get there.
About to begin the assembly of an MMU3 unit for my #PrusaMK4 because I don’t feel like I’ve gotten in over my head nearly often enough…
🚀 Just printed a Nintendo Switch steering wheel with the Prusa MK4, featuring organic support! The support structure looks amazing! Can't wait to see it in action. 🎮 #3DPrinting #PrusaMK4 #NintendoSwitch #MakerCommunity

Yesterday I was watching the new Ghostbusters and so I had to print these little Mashmellows from @wekster2507 printed on a Prusa MK4 with MMU3

#3dprinting is just awesome!
20 minutes #freecad , 10 minutes printing on the #prusamk4 .
OK. Maybe I could have spent one more minute on thinking and measuring, but it works :D
Some really cool nametags being printed today on a #PrusaMK4 in the makerspace. Creations by 9-year old school children after a #Tinkercad class 🦾 👌

If you have a Prusa Mk4 and the MMU3, is it worth it? Not being able to use filaments other than PLA/PETG (without removing the MMU) is pretty annoying, but might be worthwhile since I have yet to print with anything else. I have eventual TPU use cases.
Wszystko już wydrukowane i czeka na zamontowanie #druk3D #drukarka3d #prusa #prusamk4
Tu jeszcze 2h i później kolejne 5h i gotowe. Dziś powinienem skończyć drukować części. W przyszłym tygodniu będzie składanie 😁 #druk3D #drukarka3d #prusa #prusamk4
To PETG. Bez zabawy w suszenie filamentu i jakiś mądrości opowiadanych w internecie. Jestem bardzo zadowolony z jakości wydruków na MK4. W zasadzie wszystko na defaultowych ustawieniach Prusa w Slicer. Tylko dałem znacznie większą retrakcję, bo bez niej jest sporo nitkowania #druk3D #drukarka3d #prusa #prusamk4
