think if i was going 24V I use mks mosfet to control the bed, inpart to keep the heat off the main board.by jinx - General
@ Andornot wondering about this " if you require custom graphics " could be fun personalising the surface but how much for example would this add to the cost of a 8" plateby jinx - General
its good to see it up am a convert, its proven itself to be brilliant with PLA more reliable than kapton tape and cleaner than gluestick.by jinx - General
OOO I stand corrected you can lower the Z in the center but first XY needs homing. good old Tomas now jinx lowers head walks of to the corner!! orders his probeby jinx - General
"But the Z will not home at the centre of the bed !!!" and it never will it aint meant too. in firmware "marlin" you can set the center and how far to travel after homing if you using marlin look for these lines in config.h line 721 "they're abouts" // Travel limits after homing (units are in mm) #define X_MIN_POS 0 #define Y_MIN_POS 0 #define Z_MIN_POS 0 #define X_MAX_POS 180 #define Y_MAX_POSby jinx - General
you dont need skype or google, just explain whats happening and provide pics. the more details you give the better the responses folks can provideby jinx - General
you gonna have to hack it, at least I never seen that type in factory made bipolar formatby jinx - General
Quotestandard _chinese_ Volcano with an NTC thermistor the volcano clones, v6 for that matter commonly come with NTC 3950 Thermistor 100K in marlin that be 13 or 11 but it aint 1 in thermistor selectionby jinx - General Mendel Topics
is the bed level to the gantry? sounds like restricting the fila flow, and the filament being knurled to death! on the hobbed bolt/gear of the extruder. you calibrated the E steps in firmware?by jinx - General
I so need to get away from gluesticks!! grootby jinx - General
QuoteWhat do you mean by header? Cant seem to google it. Also red breakout board? was thinking of these Endstops see the black end of the leads "those are female headers" i just swap over to those though not sure how you mount them on the current brackets!by jinx - General
QuoteThere still is the question of the thermocouples though. On ramps someone mentioned they were able to use this to work with but how will they work with MKS? am no expert on the mks gen series but you can consider the mks board a single board RAMPS with access to the same pins on the aux ports so what ever works on the RAMPS should work for the MKS. seem you gonna have to solder new headby jinx - General
QuoteCan I just pull off the motor drivers from the mightyboard and then attach them to the MKS then? NO appears from your pic those drivers overhang the headers, on the mks gen you just want have room " short answer before coffee!".by jinx - General
what a gem!! Quotetevo IMPORTANT: Follow the E3Dv6 Assembly guide to assemble the HotEnd correctly. Images below provided for guidance. now you think there take a common approach to mounting that hotend being similar to the chimera cold end.by jinx - General
QuoteCan the boards handle nema 23's? have a quick read through this for the duet and thisby jinx - General
what about carbon rods, is it an option over 600 mm Tech2c attempt on the hypercubeby jinx - General
dump the ATX idea unnecessarily noisy things these days with relative low pricing of LED PSU LED PSU your question should be 12v or 24V think both your board option are happy with 24V just match the rest like motors, Hotend heater and bed.. get one with 3 outputs you may want to add some thing else later like a PI? or lighting.by jinx - General
"""Oh, and a final point, anyone with a 3D printer that is not constantly 'tuning' their printer is probably an imposter! :-)""" LOL build it once, tinker with the second . a well built cheap ass build can go months without a redialing every second dayby jinx - General
i cant find nothing on it what images i do see all have that heater block positioned under the cooling fan which I find odd. Am assuming the lack of reference to this hotend because its newby jinx - General
has anyone tried this hotend yet hotend apart from its price seems rather a compact solution for multi colour prints NF THC-01 could be the best bloody hotend in the world, but there's so little " utter lack of " details or reviews you wouldn't touch it with a barge pole! shame on its creators.by jinx - General
HYPERCUBE a little short on the Z axis, but I found it a belting intro to coreXY design.by jinx - General
QuoteI'd say my two larger machines were both better with steel/pu belts they just didn't last very long. yea I was surprised to read you managed to break cables inside been/was considering them for an upgrade. Quoteor we are overlooking a core part of the system. dont think it being overlooked they are what they are and we dont have to pay a premium for it. just something I dont come acrosby jinx - General
could be what we have for £/M gt2 belts is good enough... only other belt I've seen is MXL "on the overlord" but do we really need kavlar belts.by jinx - General
