minus-squareCobraA1@kbin.sociallinkfedilinkarrow-up1·1 year agoI printed some tiny but detailed board game pieces recently, I don’t think I’d get the detail I wanted with a 0.8. I also have Revo installed so I’m okay with swapping nozzles frequently.
minus-squareShadowRam@kbin.sociallinkfedilinkarrow-up1·edit-21 year agoFor years now, I’ve always want to see someone try a dual nozzle setup. Same material, same filament, but two nozzles sizes. Small nozzle for outer perimeter at a low layer height. Large nozzle for inner perimeter and infill at higher layer heights. Maybe in the future, someone will find a way to control nozzle size dynamically.
