    The small one i only need when i print with pla.

    • have you tried to print a skirt with 6 to 10 outlines, 2 layers high with very small distance from object (like 0.3 mm for a 0.4 mm nozzle)
      you will need to tear or cut off the skirt but it prevented almost all warping on my prints

    Oké i see this on thingiverse http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:1196270 do you think this will help.

    • To successfully print with ABS (which is all I print with btw) you really need a printer that can do it… I have an UP Box and an UP Mini 2… both print abs flawlessly… Since you probably won’t be buying a new printer here are some tips that hopefully will help… A good print surface to use with ABS is Buildtak … it really sticks well to…[Read more]

      • I’ve never heard a bad thing said about “Build Tanks”,,,,
        I got to get back to the grind,,, the only thing I can think off without doing mod work on your printer is un-bolt the small fan and turn it around so its blowing up instead of down onto your print,,, and slow the fan speed down ,, (the flaw with design is they set both fan to the one s…[Read more]
