Re: de algun adhesivo o laca que funione para cama caliente - 6 years ago

Despues de tener problemas con cinta de papel y otros metodos, pegue una lamina de PEI y nunca mas tuve problemas. Ya no uso pegamento ni nada. Los modelos se despegan solos cuando se enfrian

Re: Donde comprar la barra "roscada"? - 6 years ago

Las roscadas en cualquier ferreteria. Las lisas en ebay. Al final compre todo en ebay porque las barras roscadas de ferreteria no son muy precisas

Re: problema extrusion - 8 years ago

Quizas el diámetro del filamento esta mal configurado en el programa que usas para generar el gcode, o esta muy rápido. Sube un video del problema, es más fácil identificar un problema así que por la descripción

Re: HICTOP Prusa I3 now working great : my configuraton.h file - 8 years ago

Cool, thanks. I'm going to take a look into your values. My printer is printed quite nice in this moment, it is just that stringing thing that I dont remember from my old Makerbot printer. But that's all

Re: HICTOP Prusa I3 now working great : my configuraton.h file - 8 years ago

QuoteGeorgeL16 #define DEFAULT_XYJERK 2.0 // CL: For HIC i3, was =20, (mm/sec) #define DEFAULT_ZJERK 0.4 // (mm/sec) #define DEFAULT_EJERK 5.0 // (mm/sec) --- What that does in the hictop? I made my own configuration too, the only problem I am getting is with the bridges, for example if I print a 1x1 cm cube the top layer starts very crappy, string

From the LCD in the printer?

Re: Marlin Autolevel Issues - 8 years ago

I have a similar issue but I think is because my bed is a bit bent. Maybe you can try rising the #define AUTO_BED_LEVELING_GRID_POINTS 3 value to something extreme like 5 or more and check if the same happens.

If you didn't updated the firmware, maybe a crystal/oscilator failed?

Re: Hictop advice - 8 years ago

I have the hictop prusa i3 aluminium extrusion, really good for the price. It gave me a lot of work but now it is printing perfectly.

Re: Which one is better: Shapeoko, X-Carve, mydiycnc? - 8 years ago

I ended buying a 1000 mm X-Carve. Very happy with it! still not much work done, just learning a lot about cnc software and stuff

Re: Hesine Prusa i3 china copy - uneven Heated bed - 8 years ago

I have ordered 4 beds because of this... and I am thinking on machining it down too. It might be the only way to get a fully flat surface however I am unsure of what it is going to happen because the thermal impact when heating after it is flat, it might bend again?

Re: Leadscrew anti backlash , Z axis - 8 years ago

Quote I guess the only way to tell is to do a test print with and without ( i can do that with my prusa i3 now already), even though i am confident that the upgrade does just as much to the precision of your parts as to the looks of it. Certainly. In my opinion the nut will even add resistance to the rotation. Which is your theory behind auto-leveling being affected by backlash?

Carriage Y: HUGE improvement switching from 3 to 4 linear bearings! - 8 years ago

Hi The original design of the hictop prusa i3 I bought used 3 aluminium pillow linear bearings and 4 mounting points for the heated bed. I switched to 4 linear bearings and 3 mounting points for the bed and the results are amazing! it is so smooth now (at least compared to my ancient makerbot/3 bearings setup): I printed the linear bearing pillows because I only had 3 aluminium ones. Also I z

Re: Leadscrew anti backlash , Z axis - 8 years ago

It is really needed with leadscrews and these brass nuts with 4 starts? Do you have after/before prints?

Re: Which one is better: Shapeoko, X-Carve, mydiycnc? - 8 years ago

Yeah but xcarve looks like 1000x better than these chinese versions no?

Which one is better: Shapeoko, X-Carve, mydiycnc? - 8 years ago

I need to mill some wood (about 30-47 cms) and small aluminium parts, and I wish it costs less than 1500 USD Any opinion on these machines? Thanks!

Re: Mobile 3D printing? - 8 years ago

The ABP used in the thingomatic was intended to solve this issue but it was shit. But thats a good idea to start thinkering:

Re: Grease bearings? - 8 years ago

I use Tamiya Molybdenum Grease in my old Makerbot and it still runs smooth (but this uses bushings not bearings). I am not sure about how it runs on linear bearings but I will be using it too for the prusa soon

Re: An idea for increasing the Z-axis strength of printed parts - 8 years ago

With my old makerbot I had a lot of issues with delamination... and I remember reading that solution somewhere but I ended creating the pieces in a way that the strength requirements are higher in the x y axis. Now I noticed that the pieces printed by my prusa are much stronger, made me think about increasing the temperature of the makerbot, and that helped a lot!

Re: extract configuration.h - 8 years ago

Quotebizit524 sorry for the extremely late response! ha didn't know that was you. i have already found most of your designs on thingiverse and have printed some. I just actually finished printing your z axis hictop version for threaded screws when mine come in, However I have not found that anybody has designed a z axis part which includes threaded portion on z AND X. I have found either or but n

Re: Bed leveling - 8 years ago

Maybe the bed is not completely flat? And since the autolevel might not be perfectly configured it might mess something. Do you have access to the original configuration.h file? You can increase the autolevel points and also adjust the probe position

Re: How to read Hex dump file - 8 years ago

As others say the best you can do is to take notes of the settings from the printer right now and recreate the configuration.h file. To extract the hex you can use a cheap USB programmer like usbasp (check eBay) and plug it into the icsp of your printer board.
