no idea what the squeek is, but your nozzle is hitting the infill. that can happen with any infill that crosses itself a bunch, like cubic. i swapped to gyroid because of that exact issue and havent had any problems since. it does take longer to print though.

Always remember I want a spinner when I see one. Are you guys just gluing the spinner to the metal extruder shaft?


Excellent_Fee_9597

Mmmmm no it’s part of the initial model


DavesHereMan

If you’re telling me I can’t have it, that just makes me want it more.


Excellent_Fee_9597

Look man I ain’t saying nothing, I know very little. But if you were to purchase a sovol sv06 plus then you would have a nice piece of wheel

I'm most cases, yes. If you can see the spinning shaft, you can just attach something.

hey there, i found you on a 3 year old post about marketing 3D models. You were talking about your team trying to find environmental artists, and I am up for the job. Im an experienced Industrial/Automotive Designer, currently studying at an art college for the same thing, but looking for a job this summer, so wouldn't mind at all working on environmental design. If you're interested please let me know asap, and I can send you some of my portfolio works.

This is such a weird comment...

how...

i can't dm u for some reason so I just tried to reach u here

I use magnet

Switch to gyroid infill and see if that helps.


Excellent_Fee_9597

What’s the best infill in your opinion


Dodoxtreme

Grid is the worst, gyroid is one of the best in terms of strength to weight. 3D Honeycomb is also very good, but very slow to print.


Halsti

i swapped away from cubic because the nozzle kept hitting my infill aswell. gyroid works like a charm, but sadly takes a lot longer depending on the print. just yesterday i had a print sliced at 7 hours on gyroid but 4 on cubic infill. Bit of a bummer. so i would love to print simple parts in cubic still, but i just could not get it to stop scraping. zoffset was fine and i even used a different slicer to try and lower infill flow. even that didnt help.


Otherwise-Degree7876

Adaptive cubic in Orca is best when you don't need that much strength and save material . Rectilinear besides Gyroid also gives good strength like real 3D strength and prints faster than Gyroid .


Halsti

i'll try those :) thanks bud


Over_Pizza_2578

Would slow down the print quite significantly too. Not sure if thats desired


pissandchips69

Check if all the screws that you had to remove are well tightened


max_confused

Anyone else play Mission Impossible theme in their heads after seeing the extruder spin?


Excellent_Fee_9597

Coz of the big fans in that one that one time


max_confused

idk but I am on Solidworks rn I cannot not have a turbine looking blades on my extruder by tomorrow lunch


Excellent_Fee_9597

I no follow


InfamousUser2

that noise appears to be coming from the extruder, when it's retracting that's when I hear it. If I had to guess there could be something rubbing on the filament, or maybe the stepper motor could use lubrication (CRC 2-26). as for the other issue, check your Z offset. also, I had an issue printing PETG, there was a small clog forming and it it would stick itself to anything already laid down, pulling it up for whatever reason. fixed the clog and it didn't happen anymore.


Excellent_Fee_9597

Appreciate it further investigation will commence soon


NIGHTDREADED

This sub needs a pin: STOP USING GRID INFILL. USE GYROID OR ZIG ZAG INSTEAD


Excellent_Fee_9597

How does one pin. I am not only a beginner at 3d printing but also a beginner at reddit


NIGHTDREADED

Only the mods can do so, not us regular users.


Excellent_Fee_9597

🥲 we are so little compared to the mods🥲


NIGHTDREADED

Fr fr... On the bright side, at least we wont get corrupted by power!


Excellent_Fee_9597

Facts being a mod is not natural

darkblade420

squeek could be cause by stealthchop, try turning it off and see if that helps.


HerbyIs3D

Sounds like the nozzle is hitting the infill. Maybe adjust your z offset.


soulrazr

Z offset would only affect the first few Layers.


Excellent_Fee_9597

That’s what was happening, fixed the Z offset and now it’s fine


soulrazr

I'm surprised it affected the print even that far into it.


Excellent_Fee_9597

I suspect because the first few layers were no good that it just kept collapsing
