Hello all, i am a new user and i have build an Mendel. All motors seems to work and i can feed the PLA whem the extruder has 185 degrees. All with no problem. But when i load a STL file, the head is going into start possition, leftfront, and then happens nothing. I only can see in the software that it seems to stop at line 19. Please can anyone help? thanks Frans https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?151,172796,172796#msg-172796 Wed, 16 Sep 2026 02:45:45 -0400 Phorum 5.2.23 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?151,172796,172840#msg-172840 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?151,172796,172840#msg-172840
I prefer to heat things up before hitting print. This allows me to do some last second extrusion to make sure the extruder is primed and ready.]]> jbernardis General Mendel Topics Sun, 23 Dec 2012 13:06:57 -0500 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?151,172796,172828#msg-172828 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?151,172796,172828#msg-172828
