Okay #3DPrinter gurus, I’m having issues. I took an SVG file, put it into blender and converted it to STL. I had to size it up to like 3600%. The first print, acted like it wasn’t even finished. Second print, clogged the nozzle. Third print, turned into clumps of spiderweb filament all over the printbed.
Last night, when I tried cutting a model in half (again in Blender) and printed it, it printed really rough with no details on the bottom section.
What am I doing wrong and how can I fix this?

Yes, it’s a prototype made from #PLA but I painted it and added a clear coat. Seeing as it’s not a shelf or a load-bearing tool, it might hold up and only be subject to UV. If it doesn’t, I’m not terribly concerned as version 2 of #PETG is printing as we speak.

Currently in production. I’m testing a new PLA filament and seeing if I can print my bird feeder with the new material and settings. #3DPrinting #Dremel3DPrint

Okay #3D print gurus, I have a Dremel Digilab and I’m looking to print an 8 inch high bird feeder on its side. (See link). The first print said it would be 41 hours to do the main box (not the lid). What would be a good print quality to lower the print time without losing the structural integrity or making it too thin?

Also, I had to abandon the first print attempt because I used tape instead of a glue stick. Glue sticks often don’t adhere well enough. Any advice in this arena?

Bird Feeder with a level window by ak666666

A bird feeder with a slot for a transparent plastic to see the seed level. I used some blister pack for the window, just cut it to fit. Fusion project: https://a360.co/32GYglQ Plan to use it with safflower seeds for cardinals (UPD: cardinals and chickadees love this feeder.) Looks like the lid is held there with friction only, so if a squirrel uses it as a spring board it may open. Hope it won't. Thought of hanging it with the screws, but then found some Gorilla mounting tape. Let's see how it survives the rest of the summer and the cinter. UPD: relplaced the lid with a newer version, the one with an additional lip preventing it from tilting open. UPD2: put another version of the lid, less likely to be opened by squirrels.
