  • Ah nice, it seems that the adaptive cubic will make larger pockets? Neither cubic nor adaptive cubic seems very... cubic to me, though. Why is it called this?

    Adaptive cubic does indeed make larger pockets in areas that are far away from walls. As for the name, I myself imagine cuboid shapes standing on one corner. Prusa has a great page on different infill types: https://help.prusa3d.com/article/infill-patterns_177130. The only advantage I can think of for grid infill (that you're using) is that it reportedly makes better flat top surfaces.

    I manage a few Prusa printers at a school, and have set the default profiles to use 15% adaptive cubic infill.

    I change the infill in the following cases:

    • Large decorative item: Support cubic.
    • Piece that requires strength: Cubic , 20%, maybe add an extra perimeter
    • Very thin & tall parts: Rectilinear
    • Thin & flat: Grid

    Hm, OK, maybe - I think however it would have been difficult for me to keep it going when it sounds like I am destroying the printer for every layer

    I wasn't there to hear it, I might have felt the same :)

  • Gyroid infill used to be the default in PrusaSlicer, but they changed it to grid when the MK4 came out with input shaping and much higher speeds. Straight lines gain most from the increased acceleration. Gyroid will now make your printer vibrate like crazy.

    This is also not cubic infill, that's another one (which I would recommend over grid for structural pieces). I actually almost always use Adaptive Cubic infill, which saves a lot of filament.

    I also believe that your print would probably had turned out fine in the end, it doesn't seem like there were any catastrophic failures in your photos, despite the noise.

  • Could you somehow upload a 3MF file to troubleshoot? I suspect blender is the culprit here, especially with boolean modifiers.

  • I find the ckncept interesting, but I often don't remember the name of an app. I need to see its icon.

  • I've noticed that tuning pressure advance for each different filament makes a huge difference. The Prusa Minis I'm in charge of would leave huge gashes on seams until I tweaked pressure advance for that particular filament. Orca slicer has nice calibration tools for that.

  • Its honestly really hard to tell with this picture. If you send a better-lit picture of a brim using a lighter-colored filament, we might be able to provide better help!

    But something definitely looks off. It looks very thick and very uneven to me, but I also have no real sense of scale with this picture.

    In any case, if this is your brim, the mouse ears and other similar proposed solutions won't change anything.

  • This really doesn't look flat enough for a brim. Is your nozzle close enough to the bed?

  • It's called a "rhetorical question" for a reason.

  • "She told Who Me?"

    This managed to confuse me every time it was written, and it appeared a lot.

  • I kid you not, opening this post on piefed.ca gave me "Internal Server Error" the first time.
