Totally agree. However shouldn't their be some oversight/governance to allocating new G/M codes?by DADIY - General

Surely lots of data points only gives you the most common sizes or an average, it doesn't mean that its the optimal size.by DADIY - Delta Machines
Quoteetfrench Won't that script just put the individual models in the same XYZ space. Slic3r won't be able to arrange them. Slic3r will auto arrange them, if you export your config with the sequential printing set and pass it on the command line it will print sequentially or you can add --complete-objects to the command line and optionally these two extra settings if you need more clearance tby DADIY - General

From the slic3r manual, it says you can slice multiple files into one gcode file with the command - slic3r -m model1.stl model2.stl model3.stl or under windows slic3r-console -m model1.stl model2.stl model3.stl See for more details, like how to export your config first to make the command line simpler.by DADIY - General
I just got a roll of Tianese filament to try, £17.99 kg for 1.75mm PLA from Amazon. or eSun PLA is available on ebay for about £17.99 + £4.50 p&pby DADIY - General
Nice, you should publish that on Thingiverse.by DADIY - Fisher
Another nice looking print, I might have to go back to the eSun filament myself. I moved over to a slightly modified version of this extruder - having been using it for about 4 months and have been quite happy. At somepoint I need to publish my modified version on thingiverse.by DADIY - Fisher
That's a nice looking print. What PLA are you using?by DADIY - Fisher
I had a nylock nut come loose on the effector which caused layer shifting, it was also quite hard to spot and required the effector to be twisted to see it, it was probably only 1-2mm loose but made a big difference. Other causes can be the filament curling up and hitting the effector (this can also push it up). You might experience this more if the room temperature or drafts have changed or tby DADIY - Fisher
Did you get a response from them?by DADIY - General
Thanks MechaBits it would be nice to know whats going on.by DADIY - General
print3dreams.co.uk seems only to sell knives and replicas at the moment.by DADIY - General
Jinx, can you recommend a source for the rolls at £13 you think are OK. The last one I tried was unusable.by DADIY - General
I see one ebay seller has some 1.75mm transparent for £19.99 in the UK. or green glow in the dark for a reasonable £112by DADIY - General
Excelvan has been great in the UK, but something has happened to supply of the 1.75mm filament, its like they either no longer make it or a container full sunk somewhere in shipment. Other non-name filaments are still available on ebay at cheap prices but the one roll I tried was unusable.by DADIY - General
On my Fisher with Slic3r 1.31.6 I have to add a Z offset to make sure the print starts at the right height, the offset is different between PLA and ABS. For PLA I use 0.15 and for ABS -0.3 although the gcode appears to limit this to 0.05mm. BTW The new cubic infill in 1.31 is awsome.by DADIY - Fisher
Thanks, Where is the best place to suggest new features are added, especially for the DWC interface, I hacked in an extra button on the print screen so that when a print finished you can print another with one click that's been really useful and I'd like to suggest it gets added.by DADIY - Duet
That's really good to know, I will hold off rushing to find a cheap 0.8.5 board. thanks.by DADIY - Duet
I'm thinking about building a bigger printer this year and would want to use a Duet but I need/want an Ethernet port as Wifi where I want to place the printer is terrible. Are there any plans to release a new Duet with Ethernet this year or would I be best looking for a cheap 0.8.5 card ?by DADIY - Duet
Am I right in thinking that the mesh leveling isn't for beds that are mounted on springs and break contacts when pressed like the Fisher bed? My glass bed doesn't appear that flat but on consideration, the mesh wouldn't know how to take into account the different pressure needed to break the contacts in different parts of my bed?by DADIY - Duet
A couple of little things I found, - When printing, if you accidentally press Home, the printer will stop printing and start to home, this always seems to stop DWC being able to connect with ajax errors until the printer is rebooted, I also noticed that sometimes it also stops the printer responding to pings. The M570 command seems to not work anymore, my bed thermistor always reports a neby DADIY - Duet
If you download atmel studio 7 and the paneldue source from github the function that needs to be updated for these values is CreateMovePopup in Fields.cpp. This is the bit you're looking for - void CreateMovePopup(const ColourScheme& colours) { static const char * array xyJogValues[] = { "-100", "-10", "-1", "-0.1", "0.1", "1", "10", "100" }; static const char * array zJogValues[] =by DADIY - Duet
Out of interest which effector are you using?by DADIY - Duet
Has anyone else noticed that the excelvan 1.75mm PLAS filament seems to be out of stock almost everywhere, a few months ago it was just popular colours like silver but now it seems all colours are out of stock unless you want 3mm or you want to pay double or more than a month ago. Does anyone know whats going on or is it time to convert the machine to 3mm?by DADIY - General

I was just reading the release notes for the 1.17 dev 4 and see there is change to the M305 defaults in the warnings. I just wanted to check that I understand this correctly. I have a reprappro kit so I currently set this in my config.g - M305 P1 R4700 ; Hot End After upgrading to 1.17 I'll need to amend this to the following?

The windows driver can be downloaded here - The web interface is awsome and would recommend you put the sd card image onto the SD card and connect via a web browser. you can setup an ip address in the /sys/config.g file or leave default and DHCP will assign you an address which you'll probably need to look at your router to find out the address.by DADIY - Duet
Thanks. If it works on 0.8.5 it should do the same on mine. I will try it next time.by DADIY - Duet
