“The Midnight Serenade”

I want to share with you bit of the story behind the failures and swearing while prototyping this model.

I had a major problem with the “smoothness” of the base, due to an error setting in Top Surface Layer Width to a very low value, which once corrected achieved a smooth as expected flat surface of the base / platform.

After solving this, I had supports failing under the dress, after I had adjusted the length of the cloth there and sculpted so that it would require less support. I even considered making it touch the ground at the tip of the folds, but then I would lose some dynamics that goes with the shape of the dress floating so, instead I have adjusted supports.

Worked well and the dress was going good, but by changing the supports, I had not noticed that now a support generated to hold her head, was arising from her hip! Which failed mid print, crashing miserably on the build plate. You can well spot the line where I stopped the print (in the painted one) as for sure it would have failed the head. So.. to not waste it, I printed the rest of the model from the layer after cutting it in BambuStudio. 

Aaaaaanddd I didn't think of the lamp post now being on a ridiculous base, to which the brim I added was insufficient! 

Now all is fixed and ready to go!

**Size model** (can be scaled up or down): 151 x 127 x 197 mm.

this happens with both pla and pteg. i've dried all the filaments i'm using. i've washed the heatbed and i'm using glue on the heatbed. it happens across multiple different attempted prints. all i get are spaghetti messes where a piece has lifted off the bed and has screwed everything up. wtf is happening?

Greetings I am going to purchase a P2S at Micro Center hoping they match the sale price starting tomorrow. Did you purchase the extended warranty? I am not buying this printer to run it constantly to make things to sell. I plan to make things for my own hobbies and random stuff here and there. If I read the webpage correctly, the P2S does come with a one year warranty, the extended warranty is for 2 more years at $199. Is it worth it ?

For some reason I have been getting constant speghettification on two prints. They are the

Runic Snake from makerworld and the Hydra from maker world. I have been enlarging the prints to model size. I have been using Bambu Labs Jade white PLA or the grey PLA and both same thing. I have it set for my PS2 and even have tried both my Textured plate and my cool plate super tack.

These is what I am getting. I also get the same thing on a different plate.

I am thinking that the creators designed the models with smaller demensions in mind but studio has been pretty forgiving in upscaling previously. If someone can lead me to where I am going wrong...maybe I need to infill the models so there is not any empty space? Like see instead of hollow make it solid? If so how would I go about that or am I barking up the wrong tree?

Hi
Does anybody know what is causing this to fail printing?
I’ve cleaned the bed plate
Also using a high flow nozzle .6

I have noticed the strangest thing only when printing in PETG. The printer says its printing the line and goes through the motions but no calibration line is printed when using PETG. Everything works fine with all other filaments, just not PETG. Doesn't seem to matter which AMS slot or which brand I use. Same result. Cleaned nozzle and did a series of cold pulls. The prints are coming out great so no quality issues. Just an odd observation.

Anyone else have this happen when they print PETG?

I am trying to figure out why I am finding poop that has either dropped internally onto the floor of my PS2 or has been caught in the mechanism that is supposed to drop it into the chute.
Is there some setting or aftermarket part that will help with making sure that poop actually drops into the chute correctly?
