If you have trouble with the Z-Wobble, the Slim-Z-Coupling may help:

show us a picture of one of your prints. z smooth rods should cancel out the motion of the z threaded rods.

I'll print a few more samples. What would you like to see?

it would be nice to see the wobble issue you were having. images that have the wobble would allow members to diagnose if it is a hardware issue or is based in software math. before fix and after fix

just so you know z wobble issues are for several reasons.

something larger and in a color other than clear would allow people to see what your wobble free design has. keep in mind that many issues cause z wobble.

Well I know that, we 've discussed the "Z-Wobble issue" here:

[www.buildlog.net]

I just intended to post a solution that could be of interest for the forum members, considering that this solution may be used independently of the 3D-Printer Type.
Maybe I'm in the wrong forum?

I uploaded 2 pictures here:

Use "View Full size" to see the originals.

I haven't the same "Before-Pitcures" to compare but this is the result I achieved using the Parts I described on Thingiverse.

Macro please. Use sharp upper light to see shadows from layers.
And macro of vertical edge.

... I'm still experimenting with my old digital camera, however I uploaded a new picture of the cutted cylinder that better shows the layers.

Sorry I mean "sharp" as when light almost parallel to the surface and layer shadows help to discover defects.
