GitHub STOP HELPING ICE | @Pᴀᴜʟsᴛᴇʀ2: Not only are you retaining heat, but if the extrusion is even slightly over the nominal amount of material desired, at 100% infill there's nowhere for the excess to go and it will necessarily exert forces that warp your print (usually even causing slop to extend upward and collide with the nozzle, resulting in the print getting knocked off the bed). | |

One of the problems with 100% infill is you are retaining a LOT of heat within the print itself. Because of this, it isn't able to cool correctly or quickly enough to setup. It doesn't surprise me your print pulled apart. What I'm surprised about is it didn't pull apart more. Using a 30% infill will most likely cure your ills ... you could probably go down to 20% and still get the same strength and rigidity. Way more than what you need, IMHO. | |
| Apr 23, 2020 at 15:38 | comment | added | Stratubas | Thanks! There's a "wall line count" setting, I'm assuming this is what you mean "how many layers". The default (which I used) is 3. If increasing wall layers count increases strength, how is that different from infill? If I use 10 wall layers, for example, so that the whole mass is "walls", wouldn't that be the same result as using 100% infill? | |
