Hi,
Making large document trays for A4 papers, 30cm x 23.5 & varying height 4cm to 10cm
Want to make several of these so trying to use as little filament as sensible and secondary be as fast as reasonable. in 2 parts spliced & glued as of course cannot get over the 256mm.
Std. 0.4 nozzle
Using freecad designed & printed with 1.2mm wall thickness
Actually seems about right, strong enough (so far) but wondering if I am being as efficient as possible.
I have never swapped nozzles but do have 0.6 & I think 0.8 I bought a while ago.
I was thinking at 1.2mm would mean 3 passes of 0.4 but don’t know if this is how it works or exact or correct with 0.42 mentioned
I think this is a solid wall or perhaps 0.42 & 0.42 with infill but think not.
(I should go back & look a the splice!)
Not sure at what point it will make it a double wall with a infill gap?
Would I be better getting a dimension that that has 2 thinnest walls possible but some sort of infill. If so what dimensions would I need in freecad & any settings to adjust in bambu?
I print flat & verticle but do need to use manual support as along that length 1.2mm can flex. got away with it once but 2nd time spagetti! but with odd buttress supports so far been OK.
Thanks I/A
