ratemyprint - 3D printing n00b
Hi
I'm 2 weeks into into the whole 3D printing universe and would appreciate feedback on my print to get better.
I found this Makita LXT battery holder and printed it and I'm not sure how to judge the quality of the print. Personally I think the quality could improve, but where do I adjust?
- Printed with MK4S
- It was printed with black PETG from a company valled 3DO
- Print speed: 100%
- Nozzle 230°
- Bed 80°
Your filament is a little damp and would benefit from drying — otherwise I would rate that print as good enough for the first month.
Every user builds their printer slightly differently and pre-built models are shaken up in transit so during the first few weeks of use the printer will run-in and settle its parts together; then you will have to go over the basic maintenance checks, lubricate and recalibrate. Even if you got everything dialled in perfectly today, it would all need re-doing.
Better to settle, temporarily, for a basic working printer and get some useful printing done, make your early mistakes, establish a routine and generally get used to the process. Then when you do your one month service you can take extra care knowing the new settings on your now stable printer are likely to last for several months.
