After the first PLA spool

With these my first 500g PLA-spools is gone. Here some examples what I printed till now. All together these are about 250g and the 250g left were used to try things out or for failed prints.

Shop for PLA and ABS-Plastics for Europe

It was quite hard to find a cheaper PLA-plastics offerer for Germany which could offer 1.75mm PLA. That is what you need for the Makerbot Replicator 2. Today I found a shop which offers exactly that in Amsterdam for about 28 Euro / kg PLA. That is close to half as expensive than other offerings. There are additional 10 Euros for shipping, but it is nevertheless a nice offer. Link top shop: Plastic2Print

Update: Hash Animation:Master v17.0 (c)

A:M v17.0 (c) is now available. Beside some solved bugs there is a new option to export with a higher resolution when creating polygonal files. Now A:M offeres the resolution settings of 1 polygone per patch, 4 polygones per patch, 16 polygones per patch and now new 32 and 64 polygones per patch. This is especially interesting when exporting STL-files for 3d printers because for a 3d print you should use high resolution data to print the best ...

Layer-Thickness

And now about the dark sides of the Replicator 2 or very likely any 3d printer: At this time I can not print at a layer thickness of 0,1 mm. I can print very uncertain time the printer will not extrude any more PLA. At a middle quality setting (for instance 0.27mm it is quite easy to print without a problem but at 0.1mm it is much harder to even start the print. What this is all about? It is about the precission of the adjustment. That includes ...
