Hi,  
Ramesh here ,. Greetings to all,  
Hope all are safe .  
I would like have members who are created their first successful projects in SM2 kindly share the pictures so that everyone will understand and correct their settings of each module.

By seeing and reading many users am eagerly waiting for my SM2.  
Thanks in advance.

What settings are people using especially for their first layers? When I use Luban and the default print settings (Fast/Normal/High Quality) I always get some bed adhesion issues even if I print immediately after doing a fresh re-calibration. It seems leaving the bed heading for a while makes a difference.

Hey, i print the first layer every time with 120% width and at slow speeds like 8-16mm/s. (depending on the calibration)  
I would recommend you to make your own profiles in luban.

@Davidius, i think this thread is a showcase thread, may you ask your questions in other or your own thread 😉

Pair of Earrings made from the sample acrylic. Haven’t sanded the edges yet, but pretty happy with this result. Simple 2D CNC designed in Fusion 360. Luban borked on my SVG from Inkscape, which is a little sad. Also found docs out-of-date on both Autodesk and SnapMaker side.
