Hey guys and gals I am not sure what is going on here I cant find any info on this on google so I came here. Ok so trying to set up my auto bed leveling and for some reason my printer is saying its moving my X axis to 170mm for probing but it is only moving like maybe 50mm here is my ABL config to where my sensor will still reach the bed. #define LEFT_PROBE_BED_POSITION 45 #define RIGHby twitch - Firmware - mainstream and related support
Thanks guys for the replys. What I ended up doing is hooking a 2n2222 transistor to the output of my induction sensor and then hooking that to the wires for the old end stops and are currnetly using both like I orginally wanted. the old end stop was set just lower than the induction sensor as a emergency backup for crashes.by twitch - RAMPS Electronics
Hey everyone thanks for looking at this. I am in the middle of hooking an induction sensor to my printers z end stop for ABL. The sensor is fed 12v and and if you meter from the 12v+ to the sensor output then you get 12v if you trip the sensor it drops to 0v. If you meter from the 12v- and the sensor you get 0v until the sensor is tripped then you get 12v. I hooked the sensors output to my z axisby twitch - RAMPS Electronics

Search ebay or the NSA I mean google for asic block erupter. They are little usb sticks that mine bitcoins. And when I started mining btc was $125 a coin now its over a grand. I have 2 powered usb hubs with 5 block erupters each daisy chained to the pi. The pi is running cgminer to control the miners. I have a 5v 75w power supply running everything but will be downgrading to a 50w to save some poby twitch - General
I'm using asic block erupters. Dont buy em unless you can get em under $10 each.by twitch - General
Cost per coin is over $1000 on most exchanges. I got all ten miners for $85 shipped on a group buy. And I have like $1400 into the printrr then 2 7 port powered usb hubs off ebay for like $10 each. And so far I have made almost $1200 in bitcoin. If btc hits $1200 a coin then I am paid back... the only decision then is to cash out or ride it till it crashes.by twitch - General
Hey everyone I thought I'd share my printing setup with you. Its a mendel max modified to almost double the z height. It has a raspberry pi running things a ps eye camera for remote video and timelaps. She has 10 asic bitcoin miners getting 3.3gig hash. Trying to pay for the printer and mining setup with it. So far I have made 3/4 my investment back in less than 3 months. You can see it atby twitch - General
I run a raspberrypi with octoprint. I mounted a web cam to my mendel and have full web control. I use a ip cam app on my phone to check in. Just make sure you have password protection for octoprint... I need a pw for octoprint, pw to access the proxy and have the web dir pw protected. Overkill maybe... but when you figure this thing could burn down the house I'd say cheap insurance. And I alsoby twitch - Reprappers

Hey everyone I wanted to share my story and give a review for my new Mendel ZMax from Ultibots. I did a lot of research before ordering my printer and I believe I bought one of the best quality kits on the net. I stumbled upon Ultibots website during my quest to find the best kit I could afford. I was looking at the Rostock Max or a MendelMax 1.5+ or 2.0. The 2.0 was just out of reach and not scaby twitch - General

A cheap ups with spike protection or a line conditioner would solve the power issues. Also watch what cords your usb cable is near some will bleed interference into it.by twitch - General

I just built ultibots.com's mendelmax 1.5 and I am very impressed with their kit. It comes with stuff I didn't even know I needed until I needed it. It is a all in one kit.... and Brad is awesome he called me from his cruse ship a few weeks ago while on vacation. Now that's customer service. Also his kits ship in days not weeks and is a USA based company out of Florida. I built their kit withby twitch - Reprappers

Hey everyone I just finished building a mendelZmax which is a taller version of the mendelmax. I have a issue with my Y axis end stop.... in ponterface (spelling) my Y axis was backaards when moving it but hit the endstop just fine. Now I fixed the Y axiz to be correct but homing now goes the opposite direction away from my end stop. How do I fix this? Do I need to move my endstop to the front ofby twitch - Reprappers

Hi everyone I will be buying a RepRap kit in the next week or 2 and have a few questions. First I am looking at these 3 models: RepRapPro Tricolour Mendel - 3Dstuffmaker's Mega Prusa - MendelMax 2.0 - And now on to the questions 1. The frame of the Mendel and Prusa are threaded rods and the Max is all aluminum is there a benefit to the Max that would justify that much more cost $400by twitch - General
