When I first started 3D printing, I didn’t know much about calibration tests so I just went straight into 3D printing objects. After some experience in the field, I learned how important 3D printing calibration tests are. The best 3D printing calibration tests include the 3DBenchy, XYZ Calibration Cube, Smart Compact Temperature Calibration, and the…
3D printing can definitely be used to 3D print food safe objects such as cups, cutlery, containers, and more. Learning how to 3D print food safe objects is important if you want to use them for that purpose. To 3D print food safe objects, use a stainless steel nozzle, print with a certified food safe…
3D printed parts can be improved by using connecting joints & interlocking parts within the design, but they can be tricky to 3D print dimensionally. After having some failures with 3D printing these parts, I decided to write an article on how to 3D print them correctly. To 3D print connection joints & interlocking parts,…
After getting into 3D printing, I came across terms such as firmware, Marlin, flashing, and upgrading which was pretty confusing at first. I did some research about 3D printer firmware and found out what it all means, so I wrote an article about it to assist other people. This article will discuss firmware-related topics such…
FDM (Fused Deposition Modelling) is the most popular 3D printing technology among hobbyists. These printers have carved out a niche for themselves as the premier choice for low-cost, desktop 3D printing. Therefore, if you are a beginner looking to enter 3D printing, chances are your first 3D printer is going to be an FDM printer….
Knowing how to calibrate your hot end and heat bed with PID Tuning is essential for making high-quality and consistent prints. This is something that every 3D printer user should know about, so I’ve decided to put together a detailed guide for this topic. To calibrate your hot end and heat bed with PID tuning,…
