MakerWare Profiles for Polycarbonate on an R2x

Here are some MakerWare profiles that I have been using with Polycarbonate on a Replicator 2x.

PC is:

  • Crystal-clear like T-glase
  • About twice as strong and tough as ABS, but stiffer than Nylon
  • Suitable for mechanical use up to ~150C
  • Prone to warping like ABS

THIS IS EXPERIMENTAL. YOU CAN BREAK YOUR PRINTER. USE AT YOUR OWN RISK. READ THE INSTRUCTIONS TO SEE MY HARDWARE SETUP BEFORE ATTEMPTING.

I have attached the vase STL for the pictured print because Thingiverse requires a model to be attached to Things, apparently. The original is here: http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:31722
