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...

Glass build plate sprayed with hair spray is what I've heard works wonders. Never tried it myself since I have the heated bed.


As for Nylon filament: http://www.amazon.com/Taulman-618-Na.../dp/B00BGMM8TW I have a sample of this I've been meaning to run for a bit, haven't gotten around to it.
