Yeah as soon as I realized I was enjoying myself, I ordered a few roles of different materials. I’ll give them a try when they land.

Dish soap is my usual go to!

it has been a while since I’ve printed, but now you mention it yes I seem to recall never having good luck with pla+

Thanks for the advice.

The heated bed was set to 70, however I’ve realised it’s actually only for the initial layer where it drops to 60.

Do you think I should try to consistent 60 or 70?

I do have an IR thermometer so I will give it a thorough probe…

As for an enclosure… This is something I remember planning when I initially got the machine years ago. Unfortunately one of the big selling points of the any cubic chiron was the enormous build plate! This means building of an enclosure for it eats up quite a bit of space 😂 It’s currently situated underneath a desk with three of the four sides covered, but I shall make a curtain to cover the front.

N.b. I can’t ever recall using any significant amount of the enormous build plate… So when I look to buy a new printer, I’ll definitely go with something a lot smaller, with an enclosure.

Thank you very much for your response, and the link.

I had a look at my settings for bed temperature. I currently have the bed temperature at 70 degrees. However it appears that is initial bed temperature. It then drops to 60. Thankfully I want to print a few more of the exact same model, so I will reprint on a steady 70.

I will give the bed to thorough clean with 99% IPA. A next perhaps a coating of PVA.

Thx again!
