Resolved - Help! Slic3r will only slice 1/3 of the Model
September 19, 2014 12:58AM
I'm trying to print out the GlaDOS lamp, and I am able to load the model and see the full thing in NetFabb or Repetier Host, however, whenever I attempt to slice the Model using Slic3r, It will only slice up to layer 60, then stop. I'm unable to get it to slice the other 2/3 of the part.

Using Repetier Host and the latest version of Slicer 1.1.7

Before Slicing

After Slicing


STL Download Link (Too Big, wont let me attach)

Please Help!

I have downloaded that STL file and sliced it with Slic3r-mswin-x86-1-1-7-stable.
Result: No problems slicing that part in my environment, layer count: 284 layers.

My Slic3r profile is attached to this message, hope it helps!

Are you sure that you allowed sufficient time for Slic3r to finish slicing? Some settings cause Slic3r to become really slow, and it can take literally several hours to slice a part. If you copy or use the g-code file before it has finished it will only have the layers up to the point it had got to.

It would appear that something in my config is preventing me from slicing this properly.

Ormerod.ini Seems to slice this fine.

Edit:
I found out its my nozzle Size!
Changing the Nozzle size from 0.7 to 0.5 made it slice fine, but when i have it set to 0.7, it wont finish slicing!

Thank you 3D-ES, comparing your config with mine is what helped me figure this out!
