Re: Issues printing at 0.2mm - 6 years ago
Quoteorbitalair I seriously doubt you get good objects with a 0.4mm nozzle at 0.4mm layer height, the layers are barely sticking to each other. Exactly. .3mm is my max I can print with a .4mm nozzle. If I do .4 the prints are fragile and break easy because the layers dont bond well.by Floyd - Printing
Re: Varriable belt tention - 6 years ago
Wow yea get that fixed. Looks like nothing is parallel in those pictures!by Floyd - CoreXY Machines
Re: Under Extrusion pattern on wall - 6 years ago
Also make sure you are printing internal then external on the perimeters. I had mine reversed at one time and showed the same thing.by Floyd - Printing
Re: How to make ABS stick to bare aluminum or copper? - 6 years ago
I use purple glue stick on clean glass for ABS and PLA with great results. 60c for PLA and 105-110c for ABSby Floyd - Reprappers
Re: Filament swirling - 6 years ago
There is the issue. Flip it so its going over the top of the roll and not from under it!by Floyd - Printing
Re: Marlin shows gibberish - 6 years ago
Mine did the same thing when I went to 1.1.8 Marlin version.by Floyd - Reprappers
Re: My coreXY design is progressing to the build stage - 6 years ago
Quotethe_digital_dentist Winner winner chicken dinner! It came out of a scrapped Stratasys machine. Awesome! Good to see parts being reused.by Floyd - CoreXY Machines
Re: My coreXY design is progressing to the build stage - 6 years ago
That looks like a heater bar from a Stratasys printer. I juts had to replace the blower fans in the printer at workby Floyd - CoreXY Machines

M600 beep - 7 years ago
Where are the beep settings for the M600 command. Its INSANELY loud and id like to tone it down a bit. My wife woke up thinking the smoke alarm was going off last night! Im guessing it would be in the config.adv but wasnt sure. I already turned down the normal menu beeps to a light chirp and id like to do the same for the M600.by Floyd - Firmware - Marlin
Re: How to calibrate z=0 - 7 years ago
Agreed. when you start a print it tries to home X Y and Z before printing.by Floyd - General
Re: Poor print quality of gears - 7 years ago
The STL is much better and round but your printer isnt printing close to a round shape. I think you have something wrong with your printer setup.by Floyd - Reprappers
Re: Poor print quality of gears - 7 years ago
Looks like you have some huge extrusion issues. Shouldnt have any issues with that file EDIT: After looking at the file in a slicer thats a terrible thing to try and print. The part is very low polygon resolution and the teeth are very tiny and only last maybe 2-3 layers total.by Floyd - Reprappers

Prints look good from what I can see.by Floyd - Extruded Aluminum Frames
Re: Printing software on 2017? - 7 years ago
Ive been using Cura for some time now on my i3 with great results. Tried Kissclicer and Slic3r and didnt care for them.by Floyd - Printrun/Pronterface
Re: Command to change Homing Feedrate? - 7 years ago
Download the latest Marlin and start getting it setup for his machine. Its a hassle at first but well worth having a copy of Marlin for your own machine setup.by Floyd - Firmware - Marlin
Re: Change Marlin Z_MAX_POS with gCode ? - 7 years ago
How can you temporarily grow your printer 100mm? Why not just set it at 400mm and leave it there.by Floyd - General
Re: Underextruded layers - 7 years ago
Have you measured the filament diameter? I have many spools and they are all a little different. It doesn't take much to not be right anymoreby Floyd - Reprappers
Re: Some Edges of ABS Print Not Sticking - 7 years ago
Thats fairly cold for ABS. I print mine at 240 the entire print. I cannot print one benchy out of ABS at a time because of cooling. Try printing 2 or more to improve the print.by Floyd - Printing
Re: If you could get any part AT COST - What would you want? - 7 years ago
I agree. I was just answering his question. Motors, bearings and the lot are fairly "cheap" for a build. The brains are the most expensive bit. The Duet is a GREAT board and I understand the price. I make things for a living so I know. Its just I can buy quite a few cheap Ramps that "work" at the price of one Duet. Just part of the conversation, not looking to hang you out DCby Floyd - Reprappers
Re: If you could get any part AT COST - What would you want? - 7 years ago
QuoteSimba Sure, which ones are you looking at? Duet Wifi. Would love to have one but for 170 bucks or so its a bit out of reach so im forced to use the cheap Ramps combo.by Floyd - Reprappers

Re: Marlin - Thermal Runaway - Discount easy controller - 7 years ago
Your heater isnt heating up fast enough or it cannot keep the temperature. Make sure you dont have a fan in the room going. I cant print ABS temps with my ceiling fan turned on because the bed heater cannot keep up with it blowing.by Floyd - General
Re: Marlin - Thermal Runaway - Discount easy controller - 7 years ago
QuoteArnold #if ENABLED(THERMAL_PROTECTION_HOTENDS) #define THERMAL_PROTECTION_PERIOD 40 // Seconds #define THERMAL_PROTECTION_HYSTERESIS 4 // Degrees Celsius I have mine set at 70 period and 4 hysteresisby Floyd - General
Re: Marlin - Thermal Runaway - Discount easy controller - 7 years ago
Did you have a fan going? I had this issue with the latest Marlin and had to back the runaway settings up a little to keep from getting this error.by Floyd - General
Re: blobs on Benchy - 7 years ago
ABS needs a bit of time with cooling. I could never print one benchy and have it look good. When I printed two at the same time it looked much better.by Floyd - Printing
Re: CoreXYU -> CoreXYE - 7 years ago
Can you use gears and such instead of a long continuous belt?by Floyd - General
Re: ABS printing problem - 7 years ago
How big is that part? Are you printing just one at a time? That second picture from the top almost looks like underextrusion but its hard to tell with the glare and all. ABS likes to go slower and have loads of time to solidify. I print mostly all ABS and I print at no faster than 40mm/sec and print at about 240cby Floyd - Printing
