Proper Printing | Printing (carbon fiber) Nylon on an Ender 3 @properprinting | Uploaded 5 years ago | Updated 10 minutes ago
In this video I show what I've done to get my Ender 3 pro to print Nylon and carbon fiber reinforced Nylon. Nylon is pretty slippery and the carbon is abrasive which require some upgrades. It is very important not to print these materials with a stock setup which cannot handle the heat and you will be in for some disappointments. My method of preparing a filament (food) dryer is a bit experimental and it worked! I hope you enjoy watching this video and maybe get some inspiration.
