Re: Tips for fixing warping and delamination in 3D printing?
Most of the bases seem to be covered. Tape, enclosed print space, spray, check temperatures, etc.

Some forums advocate the use of nylon filament over ABS, (sorry no links at the moment), but I don't have any experience with that. Someone who does extrude nylon should chime in...

We covered our original bed with a flat piece of aluminum sheet metal, and then a layer of replaceable duct tape. It gets replaced every 2-3 prints.

What tips do you have for people without a heated bed? We have a BFB 3000 from our school, which has a HUGE print volume, and dual extruders, but no heated bed...
