  • Well, hello fellow X2 owner. I’ve had mine for almost 2 years. Still tweaking settings, but I just swapped it over to klipper about 3 months ago. Still not going too fast with outer perimeters running 40mm/s. Inner perimeters at 80-90mm/s. Travel at 200mm/s, supports at 150mm/s. Still have a slight stringing issue with pla with small detail layers. But I’ll get you a picture later today of how my seams show up.

    But yes, you can assign the position of your seams in most slicers. Basic settings are random, aligned, and back. (Most of the time these are in relation to print bed front/back, not object, so rotating the object can effectively ‘move’ the seam)

    Also, most slicers have an option to paint on the seam.



  • Looks like a nice, quick print for petg on my sidewinder. Don’t currently have anything I need to hang. But added this to a collection so I can definitely find it later.

    Love the idea of printing it split like this. Accomplishes both the spread for anchoring, and decreases layer weakness in the structure.

    Thinking of either of these facts makes it seem like a better idea than any other anchor I’ve seen for printing so far. (Used to work in a hardware store, so I know of a few ways to anchor into drywall) Of course I’ve yet to see a print for a toggle anchor (usually have a spring and folds open once you put it through a hole in the wall). Nor have I really looked into finding anchor files. Just came across a few over my 3 years printing experience.
