[Lost in Tech] set out to examine a variety of 3D printing nozzles. Before he got there, though, he found some issues. In particular, he found that his current crop of printers don’t take the standard ...

On a fused deposition modeling (FDM) 3D printer, the nozzle size dictates how small a detail you can print. Put simply, you can’t print features smaller than your nozzle for the same reason you’d have ...

So here's my problem: I want to change to a .6mm nozzle but when I do it appears that while the spacing of the paths the slicer makes assumes a .6mm line width the amount extruded is woefully ...
