MIGHIT need some help....

[JKnightandKARR]

  As the title suggests, I MIGHT need some help...  I took my Elegoo Neptune 2 3d printer down for general maintenance and cleaning, so trying with my Neptune 2D, which has never been used, till recently, due to lack of space to set up, anyhow, trying to print 3 parts I designed, 10x each so 30 parts total.  so far the first part, which is the top, I've had a total so far of 16 FAILED prints....  just started on printing 17-23 now....  I am NOT sure why, but the last 5 prints, like 10.5 hr-11hr job for 5 of the parts, quite literally was FINE until I left for work, then failed AGAIN.....  Normally this wouldn't be too big of an issue but this is for my wedding, and if I can't get this to start working, I can send filaments and files and will pay for help if I can't get this to start working....  I have white, clear/transparent and a Silk Blue/Silver PLAs, Light house parts, base is white, blue/silver top and transparent lens.  I only have like 2 mo to get this done, so if anyone has suggestions, or would be able to help print, I'd be FOREVER in your debt.

Edit: Stupid Filament snapped this time.....

Ok, switched back to the Neptune 2 and so far back printimg, looks like the gluestick i was using might have been part of the issue.... not sure....

That's awesome! I haven't done anything on my 3D printer since this article. I just recently got some new filament in, so I really need to work on some pending parts.

Yeah, this whole thing has been a royal P.I.T.A.!  like 31 failed prints......

You've been at it a lot longer than I have...I never really got any "new" projects started. The prints I made were the stuff on the SD Card. I had some difficulty getting things working properly, only to run out of filament and move on to other projects. So I will essentially be starting over again.

It's fun but also a pain sometimes!

Do you still have that other one that was never opened?

I do. It's in my storage unit at the moment, but if you're interested...
