Awesome, thank you so much dc42. I am going to do some more reading, I will be back with more questions.

I did have to pull the thermistor out of the old block through a birds nest of filament and worried that I might have damaged the leads, but it seems OK and give reasonable values on temperature.
I think I've since figured it out and, as suggested earlier in the thread, it seems to have been the nozzle. I soaked my old one in acetone (took 3 or 4 days to fully dissolve the ABS), th

Have you messed with your thermistor when replacing the blocks?

Just to confirm, should starting script look something like this?

M500?
Are you saying that if I dont use M500, if my ABL probes 16 points it wont store those 16 points (topology) and use them for the print I just initiated? I need the M500 then?
Thanks

Ditto Cura vs Slic3r. The seams/start/stop points seem to be more visible with Slic3r. One thing to do is try playing with retraction settings. I run at 3000 mm/s^2 and 30 mm/sec with my 5:1 geared extruder and get pretty good results with slic3r:
These are recent prints, sliced with Slic3r using random start/stop:
I recently tried a friend's S3D and it seems

I suffer from a similar issue but I have a cartesian machine. The funny thing is, I have another identical machine that runs the same hardware/firmware and it prints perfectly flat edge to edge. One my other machine it creates a huge gap at one end and a nozzle blocker on the other end. Same inductance probe, same everything (Except z offset of course, different for obvious reasons). Not sure why

Hello,
I was referred to this section after I asked a few questions in the other forum about 24v boards, and which is the best one to go with for my setup (bondtech QR extruder needs 24v).
I was told a Duet would do the job. I did a lot of research and found that this board is perfect for me. I need to run 24v, I use simplify3D exclusively and all my machines run ABL.
I have a few questions

Thank you for the input GroupB.
How do I get in touch with DC42 and the reprap firmware community? I will be needing a lot of support if I wish to convert all my machines to Duet on 24v. If you could point me in the best direction it would be very helpful thank you again.

Thank you very much. I like the duet because it is 32 bit. And less expensive. I do need to know a few things. Can i use auto bed leveling with this board? Is there firmwarw support? I noticed dc42 is latest firmware. I will need to know if i can edit firmware and make adjustments as i do now in marlin.

Hey! Whats the best 24v system?
I am using a bondtech QR extruder and I contacted bondtech regarding some issues i had with the extruder ( I have more than one) and they said I should run a 24v supply to the drivers to get the full power of the geared extruder. I was thinking of switching to RAMBO but it is expensive (I need more than 1) and I had my eyes on RUMBA. Do any of you guys have any o

Hello,
I googled this issue, where the inductance probe shows triggered/open almost randomly on pronterface. No matter what I do, LED on or off, on the probe, the M119 command sends me back inconsistent results. Nothing was perfectly clear as to why this was happening when I searched. I thought at first it was my resistors, maybe I wasnt giving the ramps enough voltage to see the high positio

That's a pretty high acceleration for a moving bed design - I run 800. You might want to start low and work your way up once you have the machine running reliably. Same thing with XY jerk. Personally I hate the way the printer behaves with high acceleration and jerk settings, I'd rather wait a little longer and have things run smoothly, but I understand everyone has different prioriti

Hi DBeck,
There are a lot of reasons that it could miss steps. I pulled together the Shifted Layers Page to document many of them.
Y axis missed steps are often because of an imbalance in the relationship between driver current, mass, torque, speed, and acceleration.
When you lowered the voltage, you were actually lowering the stepper motor current. The fact that it skip

Hello, I just finished building a machine. Everything is square, belts right, bearings new, motors new etc.. I am using an acceleration of 2500 mm/s2. Not too high, but not low either. The machine should be able to handle this easily. The bed is under 1 kilo. X carriage under 350 grams.
I use 20T GT2 pulleys. The Y axis skips every now and then, I am not sure if the belt is slipping because the
