I have failed prints 6 times now. No clue how you print without support. There are several pieces over 45% and they spagetti poorly. Also the extruder knocs them off even with raft.
I am on a TOM mk7, printing 30% fill, .27 layer, 30mm rate, 3 shells, with raft. I am close to giving up on this one.
Any suggestions?
I'm sorrry to hear you are having problems printing this model. Are you using thei aluminum build surface? I used a tom with the mk6 with a 0.34 layer. Is the room where you are printing warm enough? I used a raft once and it helpped. I have printed this model sucesfully a few times. which piece are you having the most issues with. Also did you get the newer version of the back of the skull? What version of skinforge are you using? Mabey try printing slower.
Is this exactly the same model as - Dinosaur skull -- sliced and scaled for Makerbot TOM by tonyv? I'm having issues printing that one and am just wondering is this version has been modified at all?
My problem is one of the pieces starts printing on layer 2, and ends up in a twisted mess of plastic, regardless of raft or support...
rweaving, did you have any issues printing the original? Did you use a raft or support to print this version?
Thanx
SO AWESOME! Love the video.
Agreed. This is what's so awesome about derivative rights. Someone with one set of talents posts a skull, someone takes that and makes something else awesome using it.
Thanks, it was a blast to make. I love being able to take my 4 year old's crazy idea and making it into reality.

How is it possible to print the teeth, they have a negative overhang?
I wouldn't say they have a negative overhand when printed vertically, but they do have an extreme overhang and require some cleanup.
