Little boy candy jar. Printed at 8 inches tall but it feels small compared to my other candy jars, so…
I am going to remodel and reprint it tomorrow. Needs to be a little bigger and fatter to hold more candy. It won’t be proportionally correct but it will fulfill its destiny to make my belly happy. Candy…get in my belly!

I am trying to go through calibration steps and swapped from some older material I had which wasn’t working to a new spool of PETG.
I used the defaults in Qidi Slicer but this happened:
and here are my speed settings… I’m running the nozzle at 240C and the bed at 60c

Hey all,
I recently bought the Creality Ferret Pro 3D scanner. My intention is to scan an object (lets say a game controller), and then model a stand and do a boolean operation to cut the scan from the stand.
Foolishy, I assumed this would be easy. I use the free version of Fusion 360, which doesnt allow conversion of mesh to solid (paid version does).
Does anyone have a workflow of free software which would facilitate this?
Thanks in advance.

Hey guys, I just picked up my first 3d printer.
Unfortunatley Qidi doesn’t offer a full user manual explaining each feature in the settings so I’m left to research on my own and can’t find much.
What do each of these do? Thanks for any and all help!

Please refer to attached image, its was a box shaped print but only one side has gaps, and very thin printing, please note that some area is printed as support is very poor, other real printing area (marked with red) is also very weak with little space and thin material
Looking for what could be the reason and how to fix it

It’s all over the internet but just in case someone has not seen it, Anycubic cloud server was hacked.
They are working to fix the identified issue.
Updated firmware is supposed to be released on 5 March.
