The legs broke as always but now I just glue the pieces in and it’s fine!
If changing the entire hotend is too complex you could try with just the thermistor, it’s a plug and play matter, so that should be quite easy.
Amazingly, I hadn’t thought of that yet! you’re right, I will try to do this before changing the whole He. Thanks!!
What do you mean the legs broke as always? Can you show a screen shot of the sliced model and/or the STL? As it stands (heh) these look like they would be difficult to print in one piece.
Added +1 for happy kids.
It’s not a slice problem, I have a cheap chinese printer that never really worked very well. I think the hot end is broken or something. Do you know when you print something too cold and the layers don’t stick? That’s what always happens. I printed those in 235⁰ and they still came out fragile with the layers breaking so I just glued the legs with some epox and now it’s good. Its just a toy so it doesn’t need to last long, but it is very frustrating for sure
Do you have layers of better layer adhesion and layers of worse? Not to ask the dumb question, but what does your hot end temp look like over the course of a print? You could need something as basic as a PID tune or you might have a failing wire.
Yes! sometimes is better and sometimes worst! I tried learning how to change the hot end but I’m still really new and have no idea so I though about buying a more popular one, like ender, and then trying to fix this one
