Do duet and smoothieware support dual x carriages?Quote

There is zero reason to port marlin and waste time and money and resources when these other better firmwares options already exist.

I strongly disagree
Marlin is bloated, its old and hacked to bits and it makes many compromises just to barely function. (some of those are due to trying to run on an under powered processor)
If you want to support 32 bit firmware support the smoothieware guys or the duet firmware guys.

>Smoothieware, running on a Smoothieboard, saves a lot of time, and to me that's a feature worth paying for.
Smoothieboard is an ironic name as it doesn't even do x16 microstepping accurately and has glitches in the the ADC. The last time I paid any attention to the software (which was admittedly a long time ago) it didn't even manage to coordinate the motors to stop at the same time.

Ever tried RepRapFirmware?

Does it run on a Smoothieboard? I don't have a Duet.

I also think they are innovating things like UBL to print objects onto uneven print beds and compensate to remove the unevenness from the object. That's a good idea, assuming that flat print beds are not always easy/cheap to achieve.

Probably not, because your not supporting those firmware to request it, or better yet add those features yourself.
Also because its a feature that 99.999% of us don’t need

Well try G1 X 100 F1 and listen if the microstepping works. See [hydraraptor.blogspot.co.uk] for the reason it doesn't and the simple fix. This problem was well known in the RepRap world after my article so I was surprised to get a Smoothieboard with Rosc = 10K and found it ironic.
I stopped following on github, and it may have been two years ago, but at that point I read that the ADC produces bum samples of 0 or FFF due to a hardware bug and has to be filtered in firmware. The motors weren't synchronised due to the firmware being far too high level and modular and you were running out if program space. At that point I lost interest and it has been gathering dust. In the meantime my requirements for 3D printing have outgrown it.

I will stick with Marlin because Im sure that people who develop it will do even better job with 32-bit version, I cant wait for proper Re-Arm board
