How to start 3D printing in Brmlab
brmlab-independent preparation (creating GCODE)
-
download
config files (thx2 Ax) and
optimized configs for drevena printer here - names are: filament -
ABS_drevo, slicing -
drivi
-
start slic3r (gui version) and import configs -
File -> Load config bundle
load your .stl file
Plater/Add
(above perspective view, “upper left corner”)
try
Export G-code...
(right tab, pushbutton)
if everything looks like it is working than you're ready for getting to next stage
brmlab-dependend preparation
check if you can connect to printer (
drevena or
zluta) , what you probably see (if you sucess) is Octoprint UI, which is running on RPI to which printer is connected.
in this step just ask somebody who is already involved in 3d-printing, he'll help you easily from this point. If you don't have account please contact
ray or
Yan.
after you sucesfully and comfortably print with supervising (probably only few prints) you can ask for permission to print alone. Permission will be granted after you will show knowledge crucial for safety and correct printing (you only need to show that you can understand and print by
3d printing cookbook , nothing more). We hope that this procedure will lead to state when you'll find printers in operational state more often than nowadays.
