  1. In short, yes, it helps a little. Curves provide less surface area per unit volume (a sphere has the least possible surface area relative to the volume of the solid), and that reduces the rate at which the material in…

  2. There are many different approaches to solving this issue and most of the answers already are spot-on. However, the fundamental reason for the "warping" is incorrect and inconsistent temperature across the material.

  3. I would guess that there are two possible sources for the problem. First, your long board may be warping. This will be the result of grain direction or stress due to humidity/moisture changes.

  4. Cool environmental conditions are the single biggest contributor to ABS delamination. Delamination or edge/corner cracking is caused by warping stresses when the first layer adhesion is stronger than the interlayer…

  5. For ABS it will warp unless you build a heat chamber. That said the tricks to reduce warping come down to: Material, i.e.

  6. As the question continued in comments, it can be read that the build plate had over-tight screws and loose screws on the build plate. This uneven tension could lead to stresses that warp the bed, e.g.

  7. The first thing to understand is what causes warping . Warping is caused by the thermal contraction of the plastic when it cools down.

  9. I used to have the exact same issue with my Ender 3. I fixed it by applying some glue to the plate before it started printing; the glue makes the filament stick and not drag behind the toolhead without adhering.

  10. Since nobody had any idea what cause the problem, I investigated for a full week. The problem is related to Fade Height and .... a warp bed , since I have ABL (Auto Bed Levelling) and Fade Height enable.

  11. I'm glad that's an option for you as it's generally the best course of action in such a situation. Although sometimes one can remove warp successfully there's no guarantee it won't try to return.

  13. Perhaps this is due to the aluminum build plate warping/crowning as it heats? I use a PEI print surface on my Monoprice Maker Select (Wanhao Di3), which has an 8.5"x8.5" build plate, and I've had no issues with the PEI…

  15. In my view this is a question of "Do I control my materials or do they control me". Your concern that your warped pieces may not meet well is valid.

  17. Consider using a different material. Since you're on a replicator 2 you're probably not printing with ABS (which would be a terrible choice for a large, flat model) but probably with PLA.

  19. thanks for all your thoughts and suggestions. In the end, partly because of the tools I had at my disposal, I just gambled on using a filler – in this case, Big Boy Body Filler .
