How to print GLASS! The first thing to understand is a very slow speed is necessary, so patience is a must.

The key is three different factors.

20mm/s speed
0.1000mm layer height
No top or bottom layers, along with one single direction for infill
\nBy following the three keys above you can create a very translucent print. Several factors in positioning the printed object and direction the filament is laid down will give vearing results.
\n
The Best filament to use believe it or not is: OVERTURE CLEAR PETG. It even beat out Formfutura HD Glass.

This is for everyone not using simplify3D

EXTRUDER
\nNozzle Diameter: 0.40 mm
\nExtrusion Multiplier: 1.01
\nExtrusion Width: 0.50 mm
\nRetraction Distance: 3.05 mm
\nRetraction Speed: 30.00 mm/s
\nCoasting Distance: 1.00 mm
\nWipe Distance: 3.00 mm

LAYER
\nPrimary Layer Height: 0.1000 mm
\nTop Solid Layers: 0
\nBottom Solid Layers: 0
\nOutline/Perimeter Shells: 2

INFILL
\nInterior Fill Percentage: 100%
\nOutline Overlap 35%
\nInfill Extrusion Width: 103%

Internal Infill Angle Offset: -45
\nTHE INFILL MUST NOT ALTERNATE EACH LAYER. EVERY LAYER MUST BE LAID DOWN THE SAME DIRECTION.

TEMPERATURE
\nHot End: 265c
\nHot Bed: 70c

COOLING
\nNO! This will cloud the print.

SPEED
\nDefault Printing Speed: 20.0 mm/s
\nOutline Underspeed: 50%
\nSolid Infill Underspeed: 30%
\nSupport Structure Underspeed: 80%
\nX/Y Axis Movement Speed: 150.0 mm/s
\nZ Axis Movement Speed: 20.0 mm/s

Some of the settings are from Simplify3D, just use what's familiar to you. If you have any questions ask, I'd be glad to help.
