Heated Bed Cabling.....
Ok when I was trying to get the ribbon cable to lay nicely under the work surface I found that move the table up and down the Y axis sometimes resulted in the ribbon cable piling up the Y axis motor end and would have jammed up the movement. So here's my simple solution to fix that problem... Please see the picture.

Being on a ship there's no where to get Meths or Acetone to clean it.

LoL um no.... I work on a large Harbour Tug bringing super tankers in...
There's no Ladies around here. Hopefully I'll manage to get to Tesco soon and grab some, the next time we're along side.
Building this kit in a moving environment has been interesting to say the least.....

The printer worked first time once a problem with the SD card was sorted, and the machine oil cleared the nozzle.

Another Tip:-
Z Drive Screw Nut:-
Sat here watching the printer being very busy got me to thinking that there's a fair bit of loading on that M5 Z axis Lead Screw.....
When you think it's just a single nut holding that lot up it's not going to be happy.....
So I've just order a replacement that should I hope last a lot longer... (Cheap as chips....)
