Printed parts cause PEI sheet to warp  

RE: Printed parts cause PEI sheet to warp

first layer looking good so far, that's a lot of x's lol

It should easy to print.

right but let's see if the reduced filament runs prevent the warping.  This is the only print I've actually seen it pull the corners of the build plate up.  But with the changes inspired by dan's suggestions let's see what we get.

@ssill2

Standing by to see what you get.

don't hold your breath lol it's a 24h print 🙂

RE: Printed parts cause PEI sheet to warp

@ssill2

Wow.  I have had a couple longer but not many.  

RE: Printed parts cause PEI sheet to warp

@cwbullet

Meh lol that damn Huey was 3 days with all the filament changes

RE: Printed parts cause PEI sheet to warp

I think more so then the X'es in the middle area that the slots in the side will do the most good.

@ssill2

Yup, that is once nice print.  Did you fly them?

@swiss_cheese

Maybe so but I’ll see how this thing turns out first.  The design is pretty simple.  I might have to get another spool of this stuff

RE: Printed parts cause PEI sheet to warp

@cwbullet

Nope it’s just a mode lol. My wife’s dad flew them in Vietnam

 🤣  You guys are print wimps:

You got me beat! Wow.  Though with the mmu and all the filament changes I could see a print taking that long

RE: Printed parts cause PEI sheet to warp

@tim-2

That is impressive.

I have ridden in a lot of birds and that is one of my favorites.  Hard to knock out of the air.  

RE: Printed parts cause PEI sheet to warp

@cwbullet

Good quality when you’re getting shot at I suppose lol

RE: Printed parts cause PEI sheet to warp

@ssill2

Yessiree - now your talking designing for 3d printing.  You could get rid of the supports entirely - but that's for another day

RE: Printed parts cause PEI sheet to warp

@ssill2

You really aren't reducing filament.  You're reducing long strands of it cooling down and pulling in the lay-down direction.

RE: Printed parts cause PEI sheet to warp

@dan-rogers

yep. Anxious to see how this turns out.  Thanks again for your help

RE: Printed parts cause PEI sheet to warp

So far I don't see any warping yet.
