A trick that I used for supports with a 0.8 mm nozzle is set their line width to 0.4 mm after realizing that they were impossible to pull off after I upgraded to a larger nozzle. I do this in Cura but I'm sure it is also possible on PrusaSlicer.
They come off as easy as they did before and do not waste that much plastic anymore

Man, that Magneto print looks INCREDIBLE. Nice work!!

I currently have a large fdm printer, as well as getting a giant Snapmaker Artisan shipped soon, so this is very applicable to my everyday life. I'm also planning on building a full size me for fashion design, so will be using this for that project.

I started buying 3KG spools from Polymaker once I got my Bambu. My solution? An $8 lazy Susan from Amazon. Worked on a 5kg spool I bought also.

Thank you WildRoseBuilds & Uncle Jessy! I will give it a go tomorrow on my Anycubic Chiron :)

I’ve never used bigger nozzles but you have convinced me I need to try them out. Great video thanks for making it.

[redheadsg]

0.6 nozzle is really good idea because you are not loosing details too much, even for small functional prints.

[thenextlayer]

My question/concern, though, is that OK, fine, the big printer can sling that big bed when it's empty... but what about when you have 3kg of filament on there in the form of a print

[hampsterkeed]

I've had a 1mm nozzle installed on a cr-10 s5 at school for about a month now. I don't normally print detailed objects, but I will say that prints with a mm nozzle are fast and strong. If you use two walls you can even run with 0% infill in some cases.

How is the Max always sold out? Frustrating

[Reviewd]

Good tips and great looking prints! Been using a .6mm nozzle on my CR-10 for years and love it.
Thanks in large part to you, I pulled the trigger on two Neptune 3 Pro's. They'll hopefully replace my two CR-6 SE's that are constantly in need of maintenance and repair. Just got the shipping notice yesterday.

Would love to see you try out some CHT nozzles that will give you more flow and be able to print faster :) They are awesome! Love that ending!

[johnmulligan]

Another great video. Your prints look gr8!

I been using 0.6 mm Hardened Steel Nozzles on all my 3D printers for about 6 months now! I don't even use the 0.4 mm anymore even though I have allot of those sitting around mostly Brass ones of them. I found that the temperature of the hardened steel nozzles do indeed need to be done higher heat than the brass ones?

I do mine now at around 214 c for PLA, 216 c for silk PLA, 228 c for TPU. and 245 to 250 c for PETG.
My easy Nylon needs 252 c. and my Carbon Fiber PLA is 220 c and the Glow in the Dark PLA or Rainbow PLA done at 226 c. I can't seem to do ABS.
Also speed has to be lowered allot for most filaments to get the good details done.

I maybe getting soon the Elegoo Neptune 3 Plus to replace my bad Tronxy X5SA. The Plus version is close to the bed size of the Tronxy X5SA just 10 mm smaller than the Tronxy.

One thing I have found though, even if you get the heat right and the speed etc. the one effect that makes the filament print well is, FLOW rate. most of the time I have to do around 80% flow rate on PETG or most except the PLA. You get the flow rate of the filament well done than the print will woke.

Do you ever print something with tree supports, look at it and think- man, this looks awesome with these tree supports...

[hanslain]

Prusa Slicer - for the MK3s, you can start by adding an MK3s with the .6mm profile.

[vincentclayton]

Can you share your profile settings for the Max

[tuskawilla]

@unclejesse what .6 nozzle did you go with?

[chrisvodopia]

I just put a .6mm nozzle on my Bambu p1p and the detail is great. I just need to dial the settings in a bit more

[Perram]

Fantastic video. Thank you for the tips!
