This is by far the MOST useful video using Silk filaments. THANK YOU!!

Great video, as always, man. I'll have to watch this more than once to fully understand it all as cura settings are a craft all on their own. Very well done. Huge thank you for the profiles. 🙏

Great videos: I am using Simplify3D version 5.1.2. A lot of these settings can carry over from slicer to Slicer program. Simplify3D however, does not have Tree Supports. I am going to try these settings on just some white PLA I have. With a Revo High flow Hotend I get some pretty good results as layer lines are concerned with a 0.6mm Nozzle and .5 mm layer width. With a .4mm layer height. This is good enough for fast prototype printing. Now since I have a design done I want a little more fine detail. And I am looking into Silk PLA as an alternative to Airbrush Paining. I found ironing and number of perimeter shells help a lot. I use either 2 or 4 perimeters depending on the part. It would be nice if there was a way to iron the sides of a print. I only have the option to iron the Top layer so that does not help much on a round or roundish model.

@Darkwingdad 7 месяцев назад

Simplify should have adaptive layer setting which will help on rounded areas

@ImmortalReaver 11 месяцев назад

Do you think a fan upgrade could help with prints curling up? When I get a new color of filament I like to print this golf ball sized skull 100% solid (only 32 grams) because it just feels really good to have a little solid skull. I position the skull so the "face" of it is pointing upwards, so no support is needed. but after it's been printing the edges curl up after it's about 3/16" into the print. it's not a bed adhesion issue because the part of the model that's touching the plate is still connected just fine. I've also tried various rolls of PETG and PLA at all sorts of temperatures and printing speeds.

@Darkwingdad 11 месяцев назад

Fan upgrades & duct upgrades would definitely help esp with silk it needs rapid cooling

@3dAngelo1 10 месяцев назад

@artofmelissa 9 месяцев назад

2:45 - Where is this located if you have / using the Bambu labs slicer?

@Darkwingdad 9 месяцев назад

In the menu “Quality” you can activate the option “Avoid crossing wall” it is the same as combing mode not in skin

@MillionMileDrive Месяц назад

I would say don't use adaptive layer height. It results in banding in my silk prints where the layers are thinner vs thicker. The amount of shine is different between layer heights. Not so much an issue with regular PLA but I wouldn't use it on prints where a uniform finish matters.

@Darkwingdad Месяц назад

I’ve had great luck with it, you just have to adjust the variance in the settings. My trick is setting the variable parameter lower so it can only get more defined on certain areas & not increase the height to cause the issues you seem to have.

@brianwaterman8185 7 месяцев назад

so for cooling, letting my fan run at 100% for everything after the first layer is ok? Reducing fan speed was going to be my next trial/error thing to test to reduce stringing. are there any settings you would change if you were printing something that had various stop and start points where the whole model isnt connected or if you were printing multiple objects?

@Darkwingdad 6 месяцев назад

Not needed, typically 90-100% with the right temp & retraction is all you need.

@brianwaterman8185 6 месяцев назад

@Darkwingdad perfect. Thanks!

Just downloaded you profiles and tried to use them in Cura 5.3 and got an error message. Trying to use them on an Monoprice Ultimate machine. Are these profiles machine specific and if so how do I read them for adaption. Love your videos as they are very informative. Will be trying silk soon.

@Darkwingdad 9 месяцев назад

It shouldn’t matter the machine but someone did comment there’s a way to import/export them if there’s issues.I haven’t had anyone tell me about an error message

Had to install the CSV add in then reset my computer. Then went to Extensions and fpound the import CVS profiles, They now load and just need to try them on my Monoprice. Looking forward to working with the silk PLA.Mine is from MatterHackers

I have used some silk in the past few months. This Inland Silk Gold had been a monster to dial in. Still do not have it dialed in. E Steps, flow, have all been calibrated. Have you have a problem with this brand of silk?

@Darkwingdad 11 месяцев назад

I personally have not used that brand. I’ll check into it & see who manufactures it. I have used close to 16 brands of silk though

HELP!! I've got a new roll of CR-Silk pla from Creality and I'm using your ultimate cura setting profile and I'm still getting a lot of stringing.... What am I doing wrong???

@Darkwingdad 5 месяцев назад

Could be moisture, have you enabled coasting?

@josephlee6651 5 месяцев назад

It's a new roll of silk pla and I used your ultimate cura profile for silk. It looks like it's coasting along print lines... I can take a picture of it, it's still printing. The stringing is really bad. @@Darkwingdad

@Darkwingdad 5 месяцев назад

@@josephlee6651 could be moisture, do you have a filament dehydrator?

@josephlee6651 5 месяцев назад

As it turns out, some of my filament, including this roll of silk, was sitting out. I just got a dryer and a vacuum bag kit. It's in the dryer now. I'll hold off on the pictures since I'm sure this is most likely the culprit. I've got it set for a 10 hour drying cycle. I'm switching jobs for a bit... Thanks for all your help! @@Darkwingdad

@josephlee6651 5 месяцев назад

I dried the filament. 10 hours in the box and got a worse result than last time. I've swapped the .4 nozzle for the .6 and I'm tramming again. I downloaded the "best" silk settings to try. @@Darkwingdad

I don't comment on videos so much... I really wish some explained settings like this and showed a small example of what is going on when they are applied.

I’m not sure if you watched the video fully but I literally show the differences between adaptive layers,monotonic settings & supports. This is also part 3, there are 2 other prior videos which show applied setting results

@@Darkwingdad yes i watched. that's why I comment. if there is chance to cover other settings in slicer as you did this ones and show examples of what results of them are will be great. Ill watch all of them since I learn what results are when they are set, and you did show example, not just explain what they do.

@@Darkwingdad English is not my primary language, so my grammar could be better. So, I need to explain myself correctly. No hard feelings were taken at all. Also, it would be nice to have creality-printed 5 guides. Since they changed things a lot in the interface and added some things, I am still trying to figure out what they do. I am using Cura and Creality Print 5, and cPrint 5 cut my print time by 10-15% with some new things they added. (again, I have no idea what they do at all =) ).
