Full marks on the backscene painting. Looks like the gardener in the second photo is having a crafty kip .....

Sorry, but we can't see your picture. Could you convert it to either a jpg or png and post again, please?

I'm testing the parameters with this one. Does 'in bloom' mean flowers only or will any sort of foliage qualify?

Not sure Rik. I have my view here, but I've asked Peter (BWLR) for his thoughts since it is his theme.

Now all I need to do is work out how best to clean the print surface properly. Assuming that yours is glass, I tend to use IPA routinely from time to time, just to collect dust etc that has accumulated, and Acetone if it has any kind of adhered build up. However, if you let the glass cool down comp...

Hi Dave, Like Rik, I don't have an Ender, but I do have a Creality CR20Pro, which is very similar. I don't actually recall a plastic film on the bed when I got it 12 months ago, but it may well have had it. I'm sure it needs to be removed though. Do you have a magnetic bed or a glass one? My CR20 Pr...
