Good info Sublime I will read up on the spectra to see where I went wrong etc.., I also put a set screw on the Z, particularly the endstop rod, maybe my bearings are really tight. I also printed my parts on an Afinia so maybe the rod pockets were looser. So I find this hilarious and I am still picking my jaw off the floor. After assembling the printer, I figured why not and give it a shot. I siby goopyplastic - Tantillus
Just finished up all the major assembly this evening, everything seems to be working so far, will need to start calibration next. Expect to see some questions in this thread asking for help! Very nice to have this great knowledge-base to work with and such a neat little printer to occupy my time. Some pictures for you: Flickr Photostream with more picsby goopyplastic - Tantillus

Ok question about the LCD now. The lcd cable I received is a single 1x8 pin header. The wiring diagrams I have found online are using either: (1) 1x2 pin header for power and (1) 1x6 pin header for the lcd (aux4) or (2) 1x4 pin headers on aux1 and aux2.

Thanks for the info, I am guessing according to this diagram: The first (classical) option is the higher torque option we aren't using the common pins on the motor. And Tony's listing of: PIN1 / WHT = COMMON PIN2 / ORG = B- PIN3 / BLUE= B PIN4 / YL = A- PIN5 / RED = A PIN6 / BLK = COMMON That I would connect the following ramps -> motor connections RAMPS -> MOTOR I am a litby goopyplastic - Tantillus
I have the wiring kit from sublime and have the 6pin sanyo's with multicolored leads that tony is selling on ebay. I am wondering if anyone knows: a) which length motor wires i use for which motor, there are (2) 14cm and (2) 22cm b) which colors of sublimes motor wires would go to which of the 6 wires on the sanyo motors (I am assuming 2 go unused) c) diagram for wiring up the lcd, I have the loby goopyplastic - Tantillus
Since the 4mm shafts don't have flats like the 5mm shafts, do we need to modify them by putting a flat on them or will they work fine being round?by goopyplastic - Tantillus
What material are the smooth rods and what is the finish? unfinished/milled, precision ground?by goopyplastic - For Sale

I can do up to 5.5" cubed print volume, the print support generation of this printer is excellent so I can do prints that might be otherwise difficult to pull off on a reprap. .20mm - .40mm in .05 mm increments, 20/40/60/80% infill, I can remove the generated supports after printing or leave them for you if you prefer. I have 8 different colors of ABS at the moment and can offer quick quotes ifby goopyplastic - Job Shop: I make stuff!
