Create Page - start working on 3d printers
A lot of our tools are complex, expensive or dangerous. Many of those same tools have very informal certification requirements. I'm interested in creating, at the least, 'certification checklists' which can be used by certifiers and certifiees alike, regardless of whether we implement stricter certification requirements or not.
== 3d Printers ==
A checklist for a 3d printer should cover the basics of FDM printing, the software toolchain, basic setup and maintenance of the machine.
Topics:
* FDM printing in general
** How it works
** What's possible?
* Prontrface
** Manual control of machine.
** Heat
*** Nozzle temps:
**** ABS - ~230C
**** PLA
****
*** Bed Temps:
**** ABS - ~85C
**** PLA -
***
* Slic3r
** Default configuration files and important slicing settings
** Overview of layers, perimeters
** Speeds
** Run through each tab and give a brief description
* How can 3D prints fail, and what should you do when they do?
