    JSFetzik got a reaction from Ben17 in 3D prints are curling on edges for bigger prints.   
    Try a brim and see if that helps. The extra surface can help keep things stuck to the surface.
     
    Also as suggested above give hairspray a try, I found it works better than glue stick for me. I use this Aquanet spray. You could also try a different type of glue stick and see if one is better than another.

    I also use it to run Octoprint for my 3D-printer.

    The 518 has been my only mouse for years and have not found anything else I like. To the point where I have 4 spares in the closet obtained from eBay.  ?

    JSFetzik got a reaction from Tandaralandara in I7-6700k and what gpu for Solidworks?   
    I work in IT at a manufacturing company, in the group that supports our CAD users. We don't use SolidWorks, but have used a number of other CAD applications.
     
    With most CAD software the video card only makes a noticeable difference if you are using relatively complex textures. If you are just using colors instead of textures just about any decent GPU will do.
     
    CPU cores might make a difference, but it really depends on the specific application. For example we have seen a number of CAD apps that max out at using 2 cores.
     
    During our last round of hardware testing before getting new machines we found that the biggest performance difference came from switching to SSD's. We saw a 10%-30% performance improvement. Particularly with large assemblies.
