Ugh - bummer to be printing for LESS than a Week - and now I have problems. Sadly - I an Error yesterday - Not really sure what is the problem - but, I essentially shut down the 3DP after it happened. Now trying to start up another print job shortly. This was the error:

This is what it looked like when it had failed and stopped printing (I just put everything back in the similar locations for the Photo Op):

But, here is the other problem - which is REALLY Frustrating!

This is the 1st Dragon I printed - the Dragon of which files were on the printer - and it has you print it at the end of the setup:

The Red was the main body - and it was Spool #1. So, for the Next Dragon - which I already posted - but, will do it again - I swapped the Red filament for a Glow in the Dark Orange Flouro filament - this was that print:

Next - I swapped the Glow filament to Spool location #2 - I put a different filament in Spool location #1 - but, when it was printing (in the FAIL pic above) - instead of it printing the new filament in Spool location #1 on the body - it seems it Automatically just printed Spool #2 for the main body - when it SHOULD have been Spool #1!!!!!

What the HECK!?!?!?

And - FYI - All I did generally was Unload and Load filament into each of those 2 Spool locations - and just did the print again! So - I'm rather surprised that it did it WRONG!!!!

Ugh...

YO DUDE - thanks SO MUCH for the Quick reply!!!

I will go check it out. I will also keep folks posted on my progress!

Just a Quick Aside...

1) I'm again DEEP diving into the world of 3D Design and 3D Printing this weekend - more on that in the next posting...

2) I gave a copy of the Glow in Dark Dragon to my neighbor - and nice young dude - who actually came over the other night to ask me to turn down the volume of my music on my PC. I met him Several times before - I felt REAL Bad about that - as his GF was Studying and it was bothering her. So - Today - I dropped by - knocked on his door - gave him the Dragon as an apology - and - DANG - the dude has a 3D Printer - got it about a Month ago or so - and is printing TONS of stuff - but, keeps it at work. I'm eventually going back over to him - to take pics of the COOL Stuff he printed - including a BIG Ray Gun looking thing from a Video game - which he printed AND PAINTED!!! More about him soon - hopefully in another posting soon...

But, yeah - I'm cranking on SEVERAL PRoject this weekend! Gotta PUSH the Limits of 3D Printing!!!!

Turns out - answer to my one problem was in the UI - I just re-assigned filament spools on the UI here:
