Marlin Probe Configuration - 11 years ago
In some firmwares that support probing I'm able to define what pin my probe is on. It would appear that marlin wants to use my min-z end-stop. Is their a way to separate the two in the software? I know it seems like a silly request but its the whole old-dog new tricks thing and i like the way i currently home my machine and I'm only using the probe to level my bed. Thanks for any help you guby jmarasch - Firmware - experimental, borrowed, and future

Ill have to look at what my accelleration is currently set to, thanks for the tip. As for the top z axis holders my machine is setup for m8 or 5/16th drive rods and probably wont work if your using m5 rods. What i dont like about the anti wobble device your using is that it only pushes the axis up it wont draw the z-axis down and then your relying on gravity. you can find my design files hereby jmarasch - Printing

I do use full steps for my z-axis. I have 5/16-24 rods and i use 0.1958 for a layer height. Im going to get some M8 x 1 on order and see of that helps.by jmarasch - Printing

So i took everything everyone gave me and did a lot more research. I printed up some parts to allow the drive nut to essentially float free. It help some but not a ton IMO. any other ideas?by jmarasch - Printing
Layer Striping - 12 years ago
Greetings, I've built a few printers now but have never seen this error or even know what to call it. I googled, yahoo'd, and bing'd my little heart out to no avail. When i print my outer walls are getting this fairly defined striping pattern to them. The pattern is very regular which led me to believe my Z-axis screws or ways had something to do with it, I took it all apart ran a die over myby jmarasch - Printing
