I don’t know how you have so many problems with that printer I have my for 8 months as one of the first printers delivered through Kickstarter and I have literally just hit $2,000 on orders and made my money back imprints 24/7 flawlessly in my room and if you’re having problems sticking that is with any printer all you need is a glue stick ever since I started using a glue stick I have never ever ever ever ever ever had anything lift off the bed. I print TPU ABS pla and carbon fiber pla , with absolutely no problem. I have only had to change nozzles. I even got a sample from Amazon on the bunch of different types of filaments and every single one of them worked just fine. They has minor glitches which they have fixed on the newer printers so if you ordered after me you haven’t even better printer hard to believe that you either have a lemon or you just don’t know that you have to tune every single filament you put in there. Especially if you have all that stringing. For you to say you’re going to go to ultimaker. I laugh , I have both printers in the other one is a joke it doesn’t even have an enclosure when you’re Printing and somebody opens a door and a draft comes into the room your print is almost ruined. I go to 3D hubs meetings with a lot of hugs from the area that come and get together and we talked about 3D printing and some of the printers there we have are ultimaker. For you to say that it is very very opposite of what all the 3D hubs in my area we’ll see about that printer not to mention the biggest thing ever which is the fact that the print size is extremely tiny compared to the n2 at 12inchx12inchx12inch.?
Well its probably due to a transport damage, as i experience one sided very rough and protruding surface as well, after 2 weeks the fan holders disintegrated due to temperature change hot/cold, polyflex does a terrible work and same print printed by the raise office and then send foots to me show the same awful surface and deformed print with even missing layers in the print, polysupport not sticking to the material its supposed to support etc. the only fair but not good print i had with my first print in proprietary PLA, the rest of over 40 trial prints with the settings Raise 3d is suggesting and slight variations of their settings just produced catastrophic prints staring with air printing, clogged nozzles, uneven and meteor hit surfaces, not sticking to buildtak you name it.
As i am a printing service business i have no time to sit down with every print for hours and trying to produce a decent outcome i can only say this printer which is advertised as plug and play and professional is in my experience total crap and a technical failure.
I invited two experts which are court approved as ethnical experts in this matter and they after checking the printer sec on my judgement.
its my experience and maybe i got a monday morning unit but thats the reality

Yeah probably transport damage and that sucks I did have a problem where one side of the prince always came out messed up and it turned out to be the actual nozzle I somehow messed up a brand new novel by trying to clean it with a pair of tweezers. Which was a rookie mistake but once I change the nozzle for a stainless steel one I’ve had absolutely amazing quality you should contact me just in case you still have the printer. So I can show you the quality that you should be getting I understand if you don’t have time to turn it that’s why I did end up switching to simplified 3D it required a little bit of tuning in the beginning but once I got the offsets right I have been printing sculptures that have no base and anything that was non 3D printable before. Now i am able easily print. I had ultimaker which I just sold it one of my friends that are starting in 3D printing. I’m so pleased and excited about this printer that I do kind of not get upset but I am a little bit bothered when I hear somebody having completely opposite experience I feel like I must help you so you can prove to raise 3D that you got a defective printer but just to help I’m not a negative person.
Do you print with polyflex and polysupport?
I can send you the STL.file so you can show me. Raise 3D could not.
regards and thanks for your offer to help. I still have the printer trying to return him to IMakr.
Here the test file, model in polyflex and support in Polysupport.

Interesting, What diameter filament are you using? Is it actually 2.85mm or 3mm?filaflex is 3mm is it not? This would be the main problem feeding it through to the hotend. I personally know from experience the 3mm simply does not work well at all, and it requires a slightly larger bowden tube… That being said, if the filament is 2.85mm(which is the size required) you really should not have any issues feeding it to the hotend at all.
i am using 1.75mm Polyflex and not filaflex
Hi Droneworks, what type of glue stick are you using? Does it work with ABS and HIPS too?
