How do I make my HIPS stick?
Best Practices
- Invest in a Good Build Surface. Kapton tape can be applied on top of your heated build platform, creating an ideal surface for HIPS to adhere to.
- Print with a High Ambient Temperature.
- Adjust Settings to Prevent Layer Separation.
How do you get rid of hip filaments?
Once the printing is complete and the object has cooled, you remove the HIPS by submerging the object in Limonene. After 24 hours, the Limonene will have dissolved the HIPS leaving you with a print job that has clean, crisp angles, corners and overhangs. There is no need for knives, scraping or sanding.
What temperature should I print my HIPS at?
HIPS can be printed best with the bed set at 55-65°C: set your hot end temperature to 240°C! Some HIPS filaments include additives that make the filaments easier to print, but these same additives can frequently make the material harder to dissolve and remove if you plan to use HIPS as a support material.
What’s hips filament?
HIPS (High Impact Polystyrene) is a dissolvable filament that is frequently used as support material. It acts as a great support material because it is easily removed with Limonene solution, leaving the clean high-quality print that you want behind.

Is a hip dip good or bad?
‘Hip dips are caused by the shape of your pelvis. Although not everyone will have noticeable hip dips, if reduced to a skeleton, all of us would have an indentation where the hip bone meets the top of the thigh. Hip dips are a normal part of your body’s structure,’ he explains.
Can you use HIPS with PLA?
You can as PLA is not affected by Limonene (the chemical used to dissolve the HIPS) but it is not recommended as the print temperatures for each material (~180C for PLA and ~230C for HIPS) are quite far apart and the PLA may not stick to the HIPS.
Does HIPS filament need to be dried?
There are several filament ‘dryers’ on the market (Printdry, ebox), but even a simple toaster oven can dry the filament between uses….DRYING INSTRUCTIONS.
Material | Max Drying Temp (°C) | Duration (Hours) |
---|---|---|
PLA | 65 | 4 |
HIPS | Drying not needed | |
Aquatek WSS Support | 65 | 2-4 |
High Temp Break Away Support | 120 | 4 |

Does sitting down make your butt flat?
Sitting at your desk for eight hours might be good for your career, but science says it’s bad for your backside. Sitting down is literally changing the shape of your butt. “An anterior pelvic tilt (tight hip flexors) can make your booty appear flatter,” Giardano said.
Why do I have a dip in my hips?
Hip dips occur where the skin is tethered, or attached, to the deeper part of your thigh bone, called the trochanter. These indentations are more noticeable in some people. This is due to the amount and distribution of fat and muscle in your body structure.
What happens if you have tight hips in the front?
If your hips are tight in the front they can cause you to bend forward slightly at the low back all day. It may be hardly noticeable at first, but comes on slowly. What about knee pain? If there are tight muscles in your hips, that means that there are also WEAK muscles in your hip.
Is there a long term solution to tight hips?
The most important point of the above is that focusing on the tight hips is not a long term solution. The CAUSE of the tight hips is the weakness and instability of the deeper muscles. The only way to solve that problem for the good is to find someone to help you to address the causes behind the hips.
Are there any additives that make hips easier to print?
Some HIPS filaments include additives that make the filaments easier to print, but these same additives can frequently make the material harder to dissolve and remove if you plan to use HIPS as a support material. To improve bed adhesion, consider using an ABS slurry.
What should I know about 3D printing with hips?
Printing with HIPS can require some extra care to ensure that each layer of the print is securely bonded to the prior layer. Otherwise, you may notice splitting or cracking between layers. To improve the bonding between layers, consider lowering your layer height or increasing the extruder temperature.
