–> Filament stopped adhering to print bed after a while
No random layer restarts
Higher layer height
much more flow
First layers are okay, Adhesion only occurs on motor override
1,6w 0,8z 7f 0pct
35°C filament, no fan, no bed
OK: first layer sticks with uhu-glue
After ±3 layers: material doesn't want to stick onto itself.
–> Increase extrusion width from 1.7 to 2.2 (future me: extrusion width doesn't change material flow. It just changes the distance between lines)
–> Layer height 1mm everywhere
Beeswax 01
35°C filament, no fan, no bed
Using Uhu-glue
There are gaps between lines
not enough extrusion

3D model: cone
Beeswax 01 (0,8z 7f)
nozzle: 35°C
bed: 25°C
result: Prints beautifully. Z-axis skipping (Z-axis motion is too fast). Layers delaminate easily, as they are not fused.
Beeswax 01
nozzle: 40°C
bed: 25°C
result: same as above
Beeswax 01
nozzle 45°C
bed: 25°C
result: flakey / grainy texture, but stronger layer adhesion.
Beeswax 01
nozzle: 50°C
bed: 25°C
result: super flakey
Beeswax 01
nozzle: 50°C
bed: 25°C
warm up time: 15min
result: a little more consistent
Beeswax 01
nozzle: 50°C
bed: 25°C
warm up time: 40min
result: same as above
Beeswax 01
nozzle: 55°C
bed: 25°C
warm up time: 30min
result: separated material: half oil, half solid. 3D print has a dripped texture. The tip of the syringe is cooler. The body of the syringe is much hotter.
Beeswax 02 (1w 0,5z 7f)
nozzle: 60°C
bed: 25°C
warm up time: 50min
result: Almost completely liquid. Too liquid for the nozzle width.
Beeswax 03 (1w 0,15z 7f)
nozzle: 60°C
bed: 25°C
result: Still a little smudgy. Good consistency: creates homogenous lines.

Beeswax 4 (0,6w 0,15z 7f)
filament: 70°C
shape: cone
result: a luer tip with 0,6mm inner diameter cools the wax down too much, resulting in jams and sudden eruptions of hot wax.
Beeswax 4 (1,18w 0,15z 7f)
filament: 70°C
shape: cone
result: OK, but printing too slow: cools down too fast
Beeswax 4 (1,18w 0,15z 20f)
filament: 70°C
shape: cone
result: Material flow stops. There is a weird buzz which I think is an unprime event.
Beeswax 4 (1,18w 0,15z 20f)
filament: 70°C
shape: cone
head control: unprime set to zero
result:?
Beeswax 5
filament: 35°C
shape: vessel v1
result: layers too thick, had to change material flow rate multiplier to 1.5.
