Can anyone recommend a removal heated bed for the Flashforge Creator Pro, it’s just very awkward to get inside the printer to remove parts and the bed gets unlevelled constantly.
I am also looking for an external spool holder I can print off since getting to the back of my FFCPro is not convenient where it is positioned, can anyone point me in the direction of an external spool holder they’ve used and liked?
http://www.geckotek3d.com 411 Great beds and reusable once the machine is calibrated. I personally use them on 4 machines and have one plate which has over 500 prints and still uae it daily. One of the best cost per print with ease of use I have found.
I have been in the same boat as you with my ffcpro. I have done extensive research into this for the last month. There are a few options, the best seems to be the geckotek removable build platform. I have also found the zebra plate by printz but there are mixed reviews. The first removable build plate I looked at was the fleks3d which looked promising but again mixed reviews. In the end it all depends on the materials you are planning to print with. I print in ABS only and so it makes choosing a removable build plate harder. But I have settled on the geckotek since I have heard of any bad reviews yet and most have given it great reviews on YouTube and other sources. Finally as Go3dprint mentioned you could go with borosilicate glass. I hope this gives you some options and I think these are the top ones most people think of.
I only print with Taulman nylons and all print perfectly with the HT plate and I can’t recommend the NY (nylon) plates as they failed on more than one occasion due to too strong a bond.
I also use glass and hairspray, when the print cools off to room temp it normally cracks off by itself. If you are in a hurry get 2 or 3 glass plates. Then remove the glass and place clean glass on printer bed.
All 4 of my flash forges have 5mm glass beds from makersome, not only does it work well, you’ll also notice over time, the flash forge beds warp - or atleast all of mine and a few spares I have have warped.
