Here is my very first print on my newly arrived 3d printer. I've been wanting to play with one for a long time!

There are way too many settings and way too little information in the manual and set up documents - but I'll get there!

After a few mis-steps trying to get the machine and software to work, and work properly (that is a very general term at this moment!), something happened. The disposable print surfaces suffered a bit as you can see! I think the machine had the Z value messed up and was dragging the nozzle through the surface material.

The print is one of WheresWaldo's parts - a plain Garmin 1/4 turn mount plate.


Machine in action.

Part as it came off. Note torn up plastic surface (luckily cheap and replaceable).

Part with a bit of a tidy up along the base.

Testing on my K-Edge mount.

And you can watch the video...
