P.S.

I like this adhesive because the print is really glued to bed. While printing with the bed at 60C the model really glued down, evening hammering will not come off. Then after the print is done and the bed cools down below 30C the print comes off the bed very easy.

Printed this chap over the weekend. Not normally a trinket guy but this was such a great model I just had to.

Filament: Filaprint gold PLA and Real Filament nuclear green PLA
Layer height: 0.15mm
Print speed: 50mm/s
Nozzle temp: 195°
Bed temp: 55°

I will tweak the settings a bit. There were quite a few threads from retractions that I removed but some are still visible (a hot air gun will take care of them). I think in future I need to drop the nozzle temp to 190° or even 185°.

Took 19 hours on my CR-X but worth it. Maybe I'll do another one at max scale. One day.

I hear you big time about bed adhesion has been a major pain in my backside too. I can not do 2 prints in a row without troubles. And right now I am having trouble with the nozzle. I bought some on eBay and cannot print, it plugs up even after a new nozzle I can not manually feed filament through it. I have gone through 12 nozzles without a single print!!!

What printer are you using, mine is Creality CR-10? That is expensive filament, I am going to save up my pennies. My printer's max nozzle temp is 260C so I would have to upgrade the printer controller box.

Where can I get your harden nozzle?

==================================

I am very open mind to any suggests on how to keep these new nozzles from plugging up. Also, may I ask where you buy your nozzles from.
I have a CR10, upgraded to a E3D v6 hotend, and a Prusa i3 MK3.
You're probably right about needing to upgrade, before being able to print the CF nylon. I had upgraded mine before I had tried anything but PLA.
You can get hardened nozzles for the E3Dv6 from Matterhackers, they're in the states, if you're in Europe E3D has them.

This is a large flat dish that I originally intended to be a test after switching to a glass build plate. It is 200mm x 130mm x 20mm. The idea was to see if I get could better adhesion with ABS slurry on glass than Kapton and boy did it work. I was never able to print with PLA before because the part would always start curling up at the edges. Not anymore though. This dish stayed stuck to the build platform and is 100% flat (no rocking).

Material: PLA
No. of shells: 1
Infill: 10%
Floor/roof thickness: 0.4mm
That came out really nice, and I like the color.

20190422_120226.jpg I tend to use my printer to test ideas and make prototypes.
This is a bearing block made of PLA at 50% infill.
Printed on a Maker Select

Now I need a bigger one.:)
Now we got USB's with files lined up waiting to print.
thinking about a Creality Ender 3 3D to do more mechanical type stuff.
I could a bigger resin printer also.
this is kind of additive.
