I would stick with the FT-5. It just works better out of the box over an extended Kossel. Once you have a solid printer id would build the kossel.by Ish - Prusa i3 and variants
Since posting the question I have had a large delta with double the build of a standard one and a folgertech FT-5. Both work well for their purposes.by Ish - Prusa i3 and variants
If I have to replace the mofset which one do you recommend? I read that NTE2986 is he standard one I watched this video and learned a few things but it made my head hurt.by Ish - Printing
I am using the host software. The temp does show and I do see it moving slightly if I cover it with my finger. I'm not 100% sure which LED you are referencing. Is it the one or the right of D9 in this picture? [1.bp.blogspot.com] I dont think I see the LED turn on at all. All I see is the LED on the Arduino Board turn on. Say the wiring is fine. How do I troubleshoot some more? BTW I have oby Ish - Printing
I have a delta printer with a silicone heatbed which is clamped down with a glass plate. It work a time and all of a sudden it stopped working. I have tried to redo the wires to make sure the connections are more secure and cleaner to no avail. I just want to list something to be clear. Heatbed is enabled in marlin Headbed temp sensor is connected to board next to hot end thermistor On the poby Ish - Printing
I'm building an XXL Delta printer. Its actually double the height and width of the Folgertech. Basically I have a folgertech kossel and I've sourced longer beams, belts, rods, etc. The Frame is pretty much set with almost all the wiring done. Just waiting on the magnetic effector and rods to top it off.by Ish - Delta Machines
Thanks for this info. What I've decided to do is take the design of Folgertech's Delta and doubling the length on rods and beams.by Ish - Prusa i3 and variants
Is there a kit for a large format 3d Printer? I'm looking for a something that will print large items in the dimensional build volume of say a Gmax XT or a Taz 5. Maybe someone has a shopping cart of stuff to make a Prusa with longer beams. Ishyby Ish - Prusa i3 and variants
I would love to see a Prusa XL version with double the build dimensionsby Ish - Prusa i3 and variants
I have not tried a metalizer paint. Thanks for the info.by Ish - Look what I made!
I'm making another one that can be worn by a model with pose-able fingers.by Ish - Look what I made!
Someone buy one and test it. lol. I plan on getting one next pay day.by Ish - General
That's what i'm guessing. It kind of looks like a metal crock pot.by Ish - General
Has anyone looked at getting a 3d print polisher similar to the ones found on Aliexpress? I wonder how this ting works. Here is a video if it posted on youtube. Check out this link on Aliexpress Here is one on ebayby Ish - General
I finally received the firmware for the Anycubic Linear Delta, and have put it on my dropbox.by Ish - Delta Machines
So i ordered this model... Assembling this thing was a pain but it's done. I had so many issues putting this thing together. In the manual is decent. Nothing really too detailed. It even mentioned loading a marlin firmware and offered no link as to where you get it for my particular model. Is there just a generic firmware that works on all models or should i wait for support from the seller?by Ish - Delta Machines
I'm stuck between the linear system vs pulley system. Is it worth getting the Linear system? Linear Pulleyby Ish - Delta Machines
I know I want a Delta and I see a lot of DIY Delta printers to choose from and I would like a little advice. Thanks! Whats the best most commonly used printer for the money that also has the potential for future upgrades? Whats the best place to buy a delta printer with the best support? What software do you use? Can you use Cura? What are some general tips and things to look out for? Heatedby Ish - Delta Machines
