Boron Solar Charging with 1.5.0-rc1

@picsil ,

I am still fairly new to 3D printing so I share this in part to see if others have had the same experience. I have found ASA to be harder to print with particularly due to its warping as it cools. However, I also understand that the vapors given off by ASA are more toxic than PETG and can damage plastic parts on the printer if you are using an enclosure.

I have been able to reduce warping to an acceptable degree by:

  • Recommended nozzle temperature: 260 °C
  • Recommended bed temperature: First layer – 105 °C, all other layers – 110 °C.
  • Slowing the first few layers print speed by 25%
  • Adding a "Brim" to help attach the part to the hotbed

I am looking forward to learning more about 3D printing and making cool enclosures like @phillycheeseman has been doing.

Thanks,

Chip
