Re: My Replikeo Prusa i3 Rework Build - 10 years ago

QuoteBratan Thanks man! How do you clean it after it's disasambled? I removed mine and it has a lot of ABS in it. If I just hit it up and invert would it pour out? Same problem with the clone j-head from replikeo ! I spent hours and hours to review all the printer, I think I would be mad ! So I decide to disasemble the jhead and heat it with a blowtorch, then put in acetone ! When I put the j-hea

Hi Guys, I agree, this printer is quite good for PLA printing ! I try to print abs but always with difficulties ; the carbon fiber bed is not coplanar, so I print on a mirror with kapton tape (offered by Replikeo). The bed could never reach 100°C. So I added insulation (aluminium foils, aluminum tape, ...). The bed reach 100° but not more, and pieces do not stick. So I test the voltage of the

Hi, I have just published a new fork of Marlin on github (https://github.com/syl-20/Marlin) for ours Replikeo. It supports auto bed leveling (ABL) with Roxy's enhanced G29 command (http://3dprintboard.com/showthread.php?3105-Auto_Bed_Leveling-Enhanced-G29-command/),dynamic probe area (from bonm14: ),new post-processing script for slic3r (replaces the gcode "G29 L F R B n4" by "G29 L10 F20

QuoteAllnei In Enhanced G29 you can define number of probes, so you can do 5x5 matrix or more yes, you can do 5*5 of probes, but I think there is an average of the values to a 3*3 matrix. QuoteAllnei Btw remove that metal lever from microswitch for better measurement With the lever effect, I think the probe needs less strength on the bed for the measure, as my bed is not rigid. Don't you think ?

Re: My Replikeo Prusa i3 Rework Build - 10 years ago

QuoteAllnei Right auto bed leveling mount is this or similar. I am using this design without problems. I design my own auto bed mount. The idea is to have auto bed + led ring, like on the picture. For hardware, just need cheaps 9g servo, end stop with deported switch, and a "LED Halo Ring Angel Eyes", like the one used on the cars when fogging. For software, just configure Marlin with instructi

QuoteBratan Hehe no problem! Did you print it out of PLA? BTW your printer looks really neat! I found cable organizer that came with Replikeo kit is too short, but Radioshack sells really long one for just $7! Did you have enough wire on your X endstop? Mine is a bit too short and sometimes catches on the heatbed when it moves I think I'll extend it. I print it with PLA. I spent many time to

Re: My Replikeo Prusa i3 Rework Build - 10 years ago

Thanks to Bratan for the spool adaped to iron i3 ! This printer is very impressive ! I spent 3 days with calibration cubes, the result is so good, at 0.2mm. But 3d printing is not good for every day life ; my wife complains each day for the time spending to calibrate ... so I print her a beautifull wheel for her roomba robot ! Hope she lets me 3 another days to calibrate ... ;-)

Re: My Replikeo Prusa i3 Rework Build - 11 years ago

Happy ! I'm happy ! I print my first calibration cube last day ! It is so far of perfection, but not bad at all ! I encouter many problems with the building of my replikeo printer : many disconnected connectors (for E thermistance and stepper motors), 0 ohm HB thermistance, wrong marlin config, ... like everyone ! For the price, Replikeo's kit is very attractive ! But you have to be good for sold

Hi, Is there a side for the heating bed PCB ? Bratan, on your photos, the heating circuit seems to be up, despite thingiverse assembly (http://www.thingiverse.com/make:59391) and wiki (http://reprap.org/wiki/Prusa_i3_Rework_Heated_bed_assembly). So, one side is better than another ? Thanks

Hi, The first package I received by China Air was so damaged that I did not accept it from the postman. It was returned to China. I contact Replikeo. They send me an another package by DHL. I received it yesterday (and I pay 50$ more). The package was intact, and everything was well packaged, thanks to Replikeo. In conclusion, I have lost 1 month and 50$ choosing China Air transportation. Next

Quotejprochnow Well here it is.... This is exactly how my box was received. If I would have pressed on the top it would have pressed in even further. Also attached is the bent frame picture. Not much of a bend but when you are talking a printer that has this type of accuracy this bend will effect it. Hi, I have received mine few weeks ago. The packet was so destroyed that I refused it.

Hi, I have bought one iron kit at replikeo. I received the packet about 30 days after buying. But the packet was so broken that I refused it. I contact replikeo, they say they will send an another packet (renforced) by dhl. No news since last week. I hope they send it as soon as possible.

Hi, I'm interested to buy at replikeo too. Prices are low, despite shipping from hong kong. Anyone have bought one there ?
