Tried taking the plate off but it’s soldered to electricals... no way to just disconnect. Goddammit.pic.twitter.com/Uq7FgchWH7
I give up. I’ve tried icing it, a spatula, swabbing isopropyl alcohol around edge, hammering gently from the side...
At this point I’m considering drilling a small hole so I can insert a rod and try to pride the damn thing off. It’s either that or give up on this build plate and get a new one.
Dammit. Drilling a hole and trying to lever it off didn’t work. Simply ripped the top off. This is with super draft low-fill settingpic.twitter.com/pRmOM4AIEv
Okay. Got it off. I slipped a box cutter under one edge just enough to get spatula under it, and that was enough leverage to get it off. Done building directly on build plate. Gonna try either blue tape or kapton tape.pic.twitter.com/XBrz5UiqU4
i like to just use one strip of blue tape on a corner, basically to give myself somewhere i can then easily work my spatula into. but i also use rafts so the slight un-evenness isnt an issue
Oh, this is very clever... I might try that. Why do you prefer to build directly on the plate though, instead of taping it all up?
over time it gets kinda messy with some tape being real hard to remove - wound up pulling off a chunk of that black plate coating from the metal, trying to remove some stubborn tape once! so now i try to use as little as i can.
however, i should also say when this happened, i had yet to get a feel for how different temps (both plate and nozzle) and different cooldown waiting times affected a print. i dont think it's an unavoidable consequence, and i likely could have kept the plate clean even w/ tape
So blue tape bonds to the black surface with heat? Not easy to simply peel off?
i think it won't be an issue if you routinely replace the tape, but i was lazy about it so i had problems. :/ i can't provide much more insight though, as now i usually either clip on a pane of glass over the plate, or use a small piece on a corner
whipping up some 3d files of simple circles/squares and figuring out the particulars of my print setup is really the only way i found the 'sweet spot' for my ender 3d - but once i got that bottom-most layer to reliably print without issue, the rest was gravy
