I am trying to print the Maker Fair Robot thingiverse.com/thing:331035 (in 65pc) and got the problem that the parts won´t move as the perimeters get too close to each other.
I wonder if this is caused by the default Vellemann print settings for slic3r from the printer´s manual (now using slic3r 1.2.6).
Print settings:
Default extrusion width: 100 %
First layer: 100 %
Perimeters: 170 %
Infill: 180 %
Filament settings:
Extrusion multiplier: 1.15
Printer settings:
Retraction Length: 5 mm
Extra length on restart: 0.1 mm
I have already read something about calibrating the extrusion length and if I did this correctly, it was way off. Though, all the other prints before came out fine. Of course, those didn´t have such fine structures like the robot has.
Are you using the default values, especially for “Extrusion multiplier” and “Extrusion Perimeters”?
Is “Extra length on restart” really necessary?
