Or a different filesystem on the flashdrive.You may have to use a specific naming convention for the printer to see the file if you are outputting in the correct file type.
Dichloromethane (Methylene Chloride) commonly sold as an adhesive for acrylic. I've tried it but didn't have much luck, might have been user error though. It's definitely an effective adhesive for PLA.ABS. I think you can do it with PLA, but requires something more exotic than acetone.
When you say fromfusion to the printer what are you using for the slicer? It needs to be setup for the printer brand and type.Anyone familiar with an anycubic kobra 2 pro?
I am having an issue with getting a file from fusion 360 to my thumb drive to the printer.
It will save to the thumb drive but the u disk on the printer says empty table when I plug it in to the printer.
I did a 3d export and saved the file as stl.When you say fromfusion to the printer what are you using for the slicer? It needs to be setup for the printer brand and type.
Fusion will CAD, but cam in 3d printing the slicer is the cam. If your just dumping the stl to the printer it doesn't know wtf to do.
Did you convert to the object to a mesh?I did a 3d export and saved the file as stl.
I cant get the file to open in prusa slicer. File doesn't show up on any drives.
The file you're printing needs to be in g-code. You import the stl into prusaslicer and export g-code.I did a 3d export and saved the file as stl.

Need more info from I HATE PONIES . Iirc you can't just save an object as a .stl it needs to be converted to a mesh first so the slicer can actually use it properly. I'm at work at the moment but I'll do a quick idiots guide on how to do this in Fusion 360 when I get home.You import the stl into prusaslicer and export g-code.
You just click the 3d printer button, click the object and save it. Not exactly a complicated process.Need more info from I HATE PONIES .

Interesting. I actually have some some that I used to attach pieces of acrylic in the past, but I didn't realize it works as glue for PLA.

ABS+ has become my go to for most things. Seems a lot more predictable than PLA, no real strength issues, pretty cheap.Interesting. I actually have some some that I used to attach pieces of acrylic in the past, but I didn't realize it works as glue for PLA. Thanks for the info.
I haven't found much drawback to printing most things in ABS at this point though. Prints come out as nice as PLA, but it's easier to post process if needed. The only issue has been the fumes, which are mostly mitigated with the Nevermore filter. I say mostly as I still don't like hanging out in my office while it's printing.
Mostly random finish issues. Likely moisture based and while solveable ABS just rolls along. PLA+ is better for that but I have some issues with warping that I don't have with ABS+what kind of failures were you having with PLA
+1 can confirm it works well to solvent bond PLA.Dichloromethane (Methylene Chloride) commonly sold as an adhesive for acrylic. I've tried it but didn't have much luck, might have been user error though. It's definitely an effective adhesive for PLA.
I have not.Prusa will need a config file for your printer.
Have you done this?

I have ABS loaded in the printer. Post up the STL and I can see how it prints tomorrow evening.I can't justify a printer yet. And, I lost my capability as I quit my night vision job. I need a couple of parts printed. I'm happy to trade cad work for printing if someone wants to help me out. I'll model up something similar to the pic. The cross bushing piece won't be included. That will be my wear component and likely nylon. Anyone? Assume size is around 3" cubed.
Material in order of preference but this beggar isn't choosy:
ASA
PETg
ABS
PLA
Color doesn't matter and I'd be disappointed if they showed up without dicks on them somewhere. 😂

I know this place Is cool and all but i use the shit out of Xometry for work related stuff. Pretty cheap and free shipping.I can't justify a printer yet.

just ran a quick quote and it looks to be about $75I know this place Is cool and all but i use the shit out of Xometry for work related stuff. Pretty cheap and free shipping.
Play around with process and material. I usually do SLS nylon as it's the fastest. However I dont know the dimensions of your partjust ran a quick quote and it looks to be about $75
Tried to do this today. I got to step 2 section3 and then I didn't have any of the listed options.Prusa will need a config file for your printer.
