Yo guy noob here,
I have recently bought my self a sidewinder x2 as my first 3d printed, and I don’t know much about 3d printing for now, anyway to get a good understanding on how great I have calibrated the printer I have printed the usual benchy, but I have this spots on the print
(can’t embedded any images because of the lemmyshitpost drama)
Are they normal? And if not how can I fix them?
Here is an image of my seam line:
And here shows a bit of stringing between the small layers:
And how do you smooth that part of the print? By melting the plastic with a soldering iron?
I suppose that could be one approach, but i believe most people use sandpaper or a hobby knife (x-acto knife). Commonly followed by other post-processing (e.g. priming, painting)
It’s mainly a visual thing on my pieces, one can hardly feel it when your run your finger over it. I would like to get it a bit smoother, but haven’t been able to get it smoother with slicer settings yet.
