I don't know how they package there stuff!? seems like someones is always missing something. They must hire school kids to package the stuff up for kitting.
If it were me id stock all the stuff in separate bins from start to finish. each bin would tell you how many of that item is needed. start at the first bin and go to the last loading in a cart or another bin. Bring that over to a table where they take that bin and box it as a complete set. How hard is that really? I don't mind a few extra screws, but i got a handful of screws I think were never even called for in the instructions.

I did get my first print done last night! I printed a 20x20 block and was drooling on myself the whole time! Simply fascinating! I do need to make some adjustments though, it appears that my belts need to be a little tighter there is some waviness on the sides of the print, also when it printed the top there is some gap between the lines. Otherwise I am ecstatic! Can't wait to print some more stuff! I think the next thing is going to be the LCD mount then on to fun stuff!

are you using the little spring tensioner they give you in the kit for the belt?

im in the same boat. Thats why I decided to take the leap and buy s3d. I didnt want to learn 3 different types of software to print when I know nothing about printing at all! I just took the plunge and I am not regretting it at all. Im having a ball printing and my machine still needs to be better calibrated.

Has anyone tried anything besides ABS or PLA in their printer? I was looking at TPE..... Would I need a different extruder or anything for that?

Hi i am having trouble calibrating my 2020 does anyone know where i can learn how to calibrate or maybe even tell me on here? Im having an issue where i sent it to print and it send the printer bed all the way to the front away from the extruder, im guess thats due to calibration correct?

What is the source of the firmware you flashed to RAMPs? If it was FT or therippa, then the end stops and motor directions (with the exception of X and maybe E) should be configured correctly. Try flipping the plug for the Y motor, which will receive it's direction. I didn't need to do this for Y but did for X and E.Quote
