Hahhah, yeah waiting for that.... Mostly nylon is what I want to try, do that smell badly?by kapperi - CoreXY Machines
That is great enclosure for one time use but I think that waf is not that great... I have decided to buy some profile and make a some sort of outer structure which can be closed and heated. Just installed solidworks so no need to use that crappy fusion anymore, have to start designing new pieces to that. Solidworks is free for year for the hobbyist or makers, fyi.by kapperi - CoreXY Machines
Nice to know that you can allways count on DD to answer something to questions... That could be quickfix but Im thinking of more pernament built. At this point I was thinking about building outershell from 2020 profile to hold panels but I have no time to start designing such a thing and I was wondering at what it would look like. Enclosure is for printing warping materials and for filter someby kapperi - CoreXY Machines
I'm closing my corexy printer and I was thinking about alternative things to do it. Earlier I was going to make my printer with hiwin guides and enclosing that kind of printers is easy. But I got distracted by life and built v-slot printer instead. Problem is that wheels and carriages makes enclosing the top very difficult(in lookwise) My printer looks exactly like tronxy x5s.

Actually, I really dont need those corners to my design. Its 45x45 profile all bolted thru profiles with M12 bolts so it should be rigid enough. Theres going to be a little twist in design. I really need to put pictures here someday. Yes, the electronics will be under there shielded with aluminium plate and litlle fans to ensure cooling.by kapperi - CoreXY Machines
Best would to take aero like lid and mount it to aluminium base. Lid would eliminate all wobling from massive heatsink. And if all this could be attached separately from motor. I have tevo extruder and there is different axle to idlerarm so the motor could be easily removed if extruder base have own screws...by kapperi - CoreXY Machines
I have thought that too, I think that titan extruder is good but groovemount + plastic casing is not. I have same thoughts about making it from aluminium but instead of milling, Im thinking just drilling and some spacers. Of course the lid is going to have some milling to do for the v6 heatbreak.by kapperi - CoreXY Machines
Okey, thanks. Pretty decent price... Your belt driven z-axis is pretty simple, low cost and should be fast enough. Compared to leadsscrews or ballscrews, its very simple.by kapperi - CoreXY Machines
Nice thing to wait this. I'm going to copy this and my printer is starting to be ready to start ordering parts. I didnt see link at where did you ordered those gears? Are you going to publish it?by kapperi - CoreXY Machines
But if autolevel is so good, why there is leveling screws?by kapperi - CoreXY Machines
Now I had time to design something, there´s a quick sketch what I´m thinking of. Any thoughts in this point?by kapperi - CoreXY Machines
Who can remember the name of the 3d printer what was build very similar way? There was even enclosure and it was all black. Front profiles was rounded from outside corner and it was very neat looking... Shamefully people did not buy enough of those and it was never on production... It was open source... I´m sure that E3D have enough name to get that thing going, hopefully learned from bigbox caseby kapperi - CoreXY Machines

I have installed MKS Sbase to my printer, hardware now works as it should but, When I tried to run PID Autotuning from webserver, It starts to do it but never gives any conlusion or feedback of doing it. I then tried to connect it to Octoprint, and I managed to get it connected. Octoprint shows temperatures ok, but everything else is broken. Octoprint sends some command and only response is !!by kapperi - Controllers
Ok, now i found supplier for mine extrusions. Its 45x45 rexroth extrusion for the price of 12e/m sawed. I could have ordered cheaper but this shop is near me so no postage. Should be rigid enough? Frame members costs about 65e now. Rails what I have to buy are about 140e. Total budget must be under 500e, so theres maybe room for duet too.by kapperi - CoreXY Machines
I checked similar profile from motedis, and I checked again and it was 36e this time... I cannot order from misumi cause Im not corporate user. What do you think, should I make corner profiles so long that those works as a legs too? Is there any difference with vibrations etc.?

That is rhe most expensive profile what I have seen... 50 dollars per meter, that cannot be true...by kapperi - CoreXY Machines
I'm using salvaged real Hiwin Egr20 bearings and matching rails. Only that rail costs 70e chopped per meter. Expensive... QuoteVigilant I suggest that you use 4040 that is consist of 2 2020 if you want it more rigid. A lot of hardwares sold are based on 2020 mounting. MIsumi 40X40 Neat profile, but I think that that consist 4 2020 afterall. That would be great profile, Atleast that could beby kapperi - CoreXY Machines
Yes something like that, but I'm thinking to link nut to nut instead to rod. Cannot link to rod cause Im going to use rails. Maybe thats useless with ballscrews and these big rails...by kapperi - CoreXY Machines
Theres exambles in I3 Prusa clones where screwnuts are constrained to the gantry only from top side of nut. And nut rotating of nut is prevented by arm to the smoothrod. This time nut would be constained to bed gantry only from top and arm is replaced by 2020 profile from nut to nut. By the way I managed to salvage two more egr20 bearings and 2 370mm rails, shamefully too short. Now I have 5by kapperi - CoreXY Machines
Quotethe_digital_dentist Others have tried using screws without guides and the result is never pretty. Whats the problem? Only the lift is using ballscrews as a guides and the bed is constrained properly with bearings. QuoteVigilant I suggest that you use 4040 that is consist of 2 2020 if you want it more rigid. A lot of hardwares sold are based on 2020 mounting. MIsumi 40X40 Yes I think thatby kapperi - CoreXY Machines
I have to think about that too. I have thinked that I could put ballscrews to lift one 2020 profile what lifts the bed thru somekind of teflonplates. This way there cant be any wobble too. If ballscrews are constrained from bottom and top, it would not need any linear bearings. Only the bed would be running on two smoothrods. I really have to get my designs on here to show what I mean.

Now I can make DD jealous! I managed to salvage real HIWIN EGR20 bearings from work, and did not cost anything. And theres some rail too to salvage... Is there any way to change topic name?by kapperi - CoreXY Machines
Before I had ramps based system Sav Mk1, but I fryed the 12v outputs from that card and was forced to start installing Sbase to my old I3. Was meant to install it to my new and shiny corexy. Does that diode bridge system get rid of the loud high pitch noise? How do you supposed to use this smoothieware? With octoprint? With builtin webbrowser? I really think that this is'nt even close to easeby kapperi - Controllers
Ok, still waiting for update to right block to get socks on. Still without the socks on, I have managed to get this printing ok. I think that it was compination of too cold and, what was supricing that lowering acceleration makes a huge difference with peth, for me atleast. Bigger motor too in extruder helped a lot. Now I´m printing 50mm/s and 260C, at 0.3 layerheight. Accelerations are 600mm/by kapperi - Printing
DD did you use belts in z-axis cause it eliminates banding?by kapperi - CoreXY Machines
MGN12 is 12mm wide and 8mm tall, so there is also big difference wether its mountet vertically or horizontally. If I waterjet plate what is same size than my width*length and hole in the middle what is 30mm smaller from sides. It's going to be base for the rails. I can mill it with same settings so it should be pretty accurate. I could then put holes in the corners to put 2020 profiles to make tby kapperi - CoreXY Machines
