YAFF - Yet Another 5 Footer Falcon Build
- Thread starter Dazza007
- Start date
Scary detail produced by computer and printer. Yes, “tools” that are told what to do by a smart human. Interesting the number of hand tools that have become automated by electronics even in model building. Scary also, the product has realism that is museum quality without die casting. Excellent work.
Howdy, I have uploaded one Pit for you to try out, it takes me a bit of time to get it ready for breaking down into greeblies, so I would like you to try this one out first and let me know how it goes before I do the rest.
So look in "Part06 - The Pits\Resin\Pit_Rear_Port_Top.stp " and try Dave's blender trick to break it apart
I will also upload the F3D files if you want to load it into Fusion and have a play there.
Cheers D

Daaza new file for PIT worked out, when you have a chance please upload the other pits....
Will do over the weekend, just finishing the last of the Mandible Pits (only have one more bit to add to it and then calling them done) then will do a bulk upload/update

Darrin, you've been getting great result with the .2mm nozzle. I just ordered one for my printer and noticed Orca slicer does not have a preset for a .2 nozzle and .04 layer height. Would you mind sharing your settings? Interested to see what speeds you are running. I am getting pretty good results with my .08 layer height setting but wondering if it would benefit me to slow it down just a bit especially with a smaller nozzle.
Sorry, disregard. I forgot the 3mf files were in the google drive

The .2mm Nozzle at .08 is fine for the bulk of the work - still 4x slower than the .4mm nozzle, but surprising how much detail is missed with the .4 one. The only place i would suggest slowing down would be for the side walls that are slightly curved.
By slower I mean the print head still runs at the same speed - it just has to lay down 4x as many lines, so takes 4x longer
You should be able to use the default .2mm nozzle 0.08mm layer height, and just change it to 0.04mm - then save off as a new profile. (This is what I did) - that does double the time as well - so worst case scenario your prints are now taking 8x longer.
In the photo below you can see that the bolts on the Command Post part nearly disappear on the 0.4mm Nozzle compared the the 0.2mm - and a lot more detail comes through.
Oh and 1 more tip - make sure your Build plate is cleaned before starting any of the bigger parts at 0.04mm height, as its not very forgiving if its slightly off

Dazza, I just saw that you uploaded a batch of files including PITs with feasibility to ungroup and I worked on that minutes ago....figures so nice, amazing, level of details and resolution of mesh outstanding, thank you so much for the extra work on that, I would like to ask you one additional assistance, the docking ports, inner part, is almost all together in a single mesh, any chance to make same adjustment as you did with Pits? I mean feasibility to ungroup it in Greeblies level, I tried it out with STEP and STL but no sucess so far
When you set the layer height to 0.04 in Bambu Studio, does it give you a warning about exceeding the layer height limits? If so, do you do anything about it or just hit ignore? The lowest I can go without the warning is 0.05.

I didn't get any warnings - just looking it up it is recommended to go around 25% of the Nozzle Width, so 0.05 would be correct
Mine did work well tho
Thanks! I think I will try 0.04 on something small and see what happens.
Exactly going to be no shortcuts when it comes to painting, there's plenty of other resources out there that cover the intricacies -
