We've ID'd a major issue printing Pro PCTG on a @snapmaker U1. If you enable "Extrusion Flow Calibration" when sending a print to the U1, it calibrates at 220C, which is far too cold for Pro PCTG. This will give massively incorrect U1 internal calibration values, and your print will almost certainly look like trash. It appears the U1 firmware 1.6.0 isn't parsing/associating the Pro PCTG sliced temperature correctly and falls back to its built-in material temperature. This seems to be because Snapmaker doesn't have PCTG as a reference material in their firmware (even though it's a filament option on the U1 screen). Solution for now: do not enable Extrusion Flow Calibration when sending or starting a print on your U1. Instead, manually calibrate the pressure advance value following the instructions from Snapmaker's wiki: wiki.snapmaker.com/en/snapma… #3dprinting

I'll say this: AI has made finding and fixing Shopify product detail page inconsistencies MUCH easier and more thorough. Gotta love having my second office, I mean @DrekkerBrewing , just a few blocks from the filament factory!

No idea if there's an audience for filament factory white noise, but here you go. #3dprinting

Wow. As someone who backed the commercial license, advertised as LIFETIME, only for them to change the terms to ANNUAL after the campaign ended, this feels beyond shady. Are you telling me you put all that marketing effort into it and didn't notice the "mistake" until after you raised $600k? kickstarter.com/projects/uss…

We've invested in automation to improve efficiency and are able to get more aggressive with our quantity discounts, even in the face of rising raw material costs. youtu.be/7BU5l56yALc #3dprinting

"Your filaments bring back the joy to 3D printing." That might be the best compliment I've ever received. #3dprinting #madeinusa

Our automated winders are running. This is pretty neat. #3dprinting #manufacturing #automation

Would you just look at it? Pro PCTG absolutely RIPPING on our new high speed extrusion line. Automated winder install is next week! #3dprinting #madeinusa

Almost all of our raw material suppliers have raised prices or increased their MOQs in the last 10 days. On top of that, freight costs have increased. Just giving some insight into the current state of the supply chain. #manufacturing

Production line 3 is now up and running, purging PLA. Lines 2 and 1 are running PCTG. Tomorrow, we fire up line 4, a high-speed line. Our plumbing plan ensures chilled water for all lines. #Manufacturing #3DPrinting

If you've ever wondered what the heck 3D Clean is and what it's used for, this interview with Paul at @WhereNerdyCool goes into it in quite a bit more detail: youtu.be/f39Uk86xahY #3dprinting #madeinusa

Taxiing, taxiing. Do pilots landing at O'Hare get a Magellan flair for how many times they've pretty much circumnavigated the whole thing? #travel
