dose it do the short moves and enter or dose the short moves stopp 30mm away?
it should move fast almost all the way down to the toolhead
you need to up your hub distance a long bit
im at 1250mm right now
add the distance from where it starts doing the short moves to the toolhead.
and add that to the total
just ish. dont need to run again +-20mm should be fine
jsut add tha tto the length
just guess. its not that precise for now
your rewinder gears migt need a reprint. they seem to move poorly in the vidio
they should be quite fast and presise
years seem shaky
that can be fixed later tho
should still work as is
they are smooth
what length did you end up with?
could start there. you should get 1 maybe 2 short moves. if more you need to add more.
perferably you shouldent get any att all
and your TN is fully exteded right?
Were the slow moves starts
you need to add like 150mm more at least
maybe more
yes but you want to add the distance from where the short moves start. not end.
ok
the short moves are a safty backup. you perferably dont want them at all
nice
ahh and btw if you do the bt lane move the respoolers dont run
and if you do to long moves at once klipper crashes
did it enter?
add 150mm
need more
you have somthing thats jamming it
where is it stopping?
might be the sensor not having a smooth pass thrue
Right at the tool head g2e
dont move the filament
Ok

is the filament pass the sensor?
yea that explains som stuff
unloade the filament and run the comand again
i think you hub signal is inverted
when you run the comand again there should not be anny filamen left in the hub
run the comand withou anything in there
3rd switch ...was working yesterday

empty
thats odd. they should be realy reliable. somthings odd
i whould guess you wiring is bad a a bad crimp
the switch itself is realy nice if you got the one from the bom
can you hear the switch go "click click" when you pass filament through it?
did you putt the crips upside down in the conector?
i did that once.
they should all lign up on one sid e
your so close
i thing you should recrimp the hub sensor. it might be a bad conection. thats all
just asking cuz i lost my click click noise on 1 of my switches i thought died and it was just the bearing not hitting the switch
almoat back together
how did it go?
terriable
o no
filament now getting stuck in TN2
chech the exit ptfe tube
you might have uneven cut
if not, you can champher it with a knife or somthing
where at in the TN2 i had this problem
see one issue turns into another ...rebooting
Ill try again after homing
Im rfeady for some turkey and burbon
my aunt would say "its noon somewhere"
can you send your log?
did the turtle prep or not before crash?
theres some ancient japanese wisdom about the easy path and the hard path but that seems extra
you got this bro literally so close
can you pliz share you kllippy log? it should tell us why it keeps crashing
π€π»
1 small step at a time
can you pliz send the log
Sure butI think Im going hitthe burbon early
i think Im going to throw this out the window
thats fair but the log might have som awnsers
kidding

I'm not taking it apart again
Yes I did that
what did it read and where did you probe?
and the multimeter beeps when filament was moving in and out
putt hub back in quits working
right at the switch
and also o nthe crimps
while hub was out
you need to probe at the crimps. but it read right when it was not in the board?
we might be onto somthing. could you share a picture of your afc board in the bt with everything mountes as you whould use it? i think you might have done the same as i did
and what version of AFC software did you update to?
afc-software
v0.0.0-767-g51e173b4-inferred
huh i see you got the prep crash at least once. thats odd
nice picture. give me 2 min
nothing odd about this box turtle
was wondering if he was crashing at prep ive had that sometimes as well because i sourced different n20 than the ali express BOM ones.
they stall
all mine game from a kit
your black/blue wires on a switch how are they going into the switch
don think thats the issue right now
blue all NC
your how wiers seem thicker than the rest. might be an idea to rewire it sompleatly. might have a damagde cable
that was old pic sorry i changed al lthe NC to blue and grounds are black \
the wiring itself is correct
24AWG
thats not to thick.
i have to go but if i where you i whould rewire the hub switch with new wire and crimps
Check your pull-up in the cfg
well everyone go enjoy time with family ..that's more important
switch_pin: ^AFC:HUB
I might mes with it later ..getting hungry
Launch is important too ahah don't starve yourself mike 
tol head just crashed in front left
nahhh
Thanks for tryuing so far on this T- day Holiday
stopped pushing about pushing 350mm this time ...just keeps going backwards
Have a wonderful day !!!
printing some fun prints for now
noice itβs always great to print fun things sometime, last thing was a tic tac gun
yea well since I cant print on the voron since the BT is down
I think I'm just goping to remove it.
any tricks to get a 0.4 broken needle out of nozzle hotend or is the nozzle shot ?
x1c
take of the nozzle and push it all the way out the other end
i tried
no go
Guess it's junk
Like a sleather
Ill never get it out
Well 2 printers down now
do a cold pull
Tried
Yea
thats norwigan taxes and stuff tho
But still least the nozzle is removable this one is not
fair but you will lose a bit of flow.
stll tho
X1c nozzle not s hf
take som epliers or somthing. hold it by the broken part. use a lighter on the nozzle untill it fals out
I tried a heatgun
ahh got it. you cant just take another needle and push it all the way thrue?
My heatgun gets really hot...wagner
Ill try heating it up hotter
On highest setting
Just my luck I guess
yeah that's the downside to the bambu hotends, need a new one, gotta chuck it
But donβt get a revo. They cost the same and a are fair bit weaker. I have snapped 2 80$ nozzles. On was even at the end of a print. The nozzle and the model had a fight and the nozzle won.
Oh
Ill go get some more nylon tomorrow and see if I can get it removed 1st
I'd say probably zero chance though
Printing on ender 3v3 for now
Ok I just verified with a multimeter that the switch is working. Checked at the crimped ends and the switch itself I get tone each time
i really suck at crimping (myself) and sometimes i dont get the crimp on the metal of the wire
you think thats a chance?
i get tone from the meter
in and out
very strange
i just checked with a volt meter tone while the hub installed with filament ..but checking status nothing
better way to check the hub and toolhead is with duplicate pin override
im presuming by this response that your meter is checking at the plug itself not the switch
so for example try adding this to your AFC_Hardware.cfg at the end
[duplicate_pin_override]
pins: AFC:HUB
[filament_switch_sensor AFC_Hub_Sensor]
switch_pin: ^AFC:HUB
pause_on_runout: False

FAILED TO LOAD LEG1 TO TOOL, CHECK FILAMENT PATH```
what are the contenst of ~/printer_data/config/AFC/AFC.var.unit and AFC.var.tool
also, did you do BT_LANE_MOVE to get the filaemtn to the toolhead?
if so, retract it all back out before doign T0
Looks like an eject?
yes ..is that the wrong way to re-wind
i dont' think eject doesn rewind, it just spits it out
if you have something loaded to the toolhead you want to unload toolhead iirc
that was running eject
eject dcoesn't respool it
so manually rewind, then heat to temp (175 seems really low to me for pla, which is what i've seen you using) - would recommend 210
then try a t0
yes, but that is the 'fallback'temperature
minimum safe
you can set it higher then do the Tx commands, it iwll not lower it to 175...
this is not a problem during regualry printing because your slicer sends teh temperature commands
there's alwaysa nother update π
these ones rae less dangerous though
more minor bug fixes
ok
Just don't re-run the install script at the moment π
I didnt
then just try heating to 210C ont eh toolhead and then do a T0
wait
are you doing pla or abs
pla
ok
4 spols of PLA loadded
I'm sorry for not catching this early
but tryign to extrude at 175C is probably like all of your clog/doesn't extrude issues
I do pla at 220-230C for printing most of hte time
I changed the temps to 230
when extruding
i know 175 too cold
id like to get at least 1 leg printing today if possible
that would be amazing
yea Im sure
Going to try and print a 1st layer
filaemt not making to to the tool head sensor again
video of what happens when you do a T0 please
'not making it toolhead' is too vague
eject the lane, insert filament, heat to temp. then start a video and do a T0 and follow the filament path and keep it going until it errors out
stopping just shy of the sensor it looks like?
that'snot a video mike π
yes i know Im trying to get it unloaded
ok
wont unload
how many short moves does it do
5-6
set bowden length to like 1470 then
filament justr will not unload
using eject again to get it out
stuck it crashed kliipper
this is jsut crazy
BT_TOOL_UNLOAD will not unload unless it gets to the tool head sensor
I think Ive had enough
Just too many issue
Thanks for trying though ...3+ weeks of issue's is just too much
I just don't understand how you are trying to unload filament and where there are so many problems if you don't even have it to thte extrduer gears yet
as belial said you can't use the unload tool macro unless it got loaded in the first place, which it did not. so you have to do a BT_LANE_MOVE or BT_LANE_EJECT, and try again
Ok got filament to the tool head and auto did a nozzle clean then park after hitting T0
Trying to print see what happens
QGL ..sorry for the step by step
When print job started spool just chirping
1st print
I can see the filament jumping up and down a bit
Is your buffer fully expanded by chance?
looks like it
Is that good or bad ?
that is not good, query the buffer QUERY_BUFFER BUFFER={buffer name}
what does that say?
Rebooting waiting on klipper to reconnect
I'm sure you have before but drop your AFC_buffer section
Whatcha mean drop ?
advance_pin: !turtleneck:ADVANCE
trailing_pin: !turtleneck:TRAILING
multiplier_high: 1.05 # default 1.05, factor to feed more filament
multiplier_low: 0.95 # default 0.95, factor to feed less filament

LEG1 Rotation distance: 4.428571428571429
it looks like the extra piece you have in there plus the spring is not allowing it to travel far enough to the advance trigger.
the spring retainer
ok let me eject the filament
now filament wont unload and I heated to 220
<@&1304550334839918672> thoughts on this everyone?
I would remove the spring retainer but you will have to get it unloaded first
stalled stepper?
not sure

You need to run eject on lane 1, if it's in your toolhead manually unlatch it
It's not aware of a lane being fully loaded

LEG1 Rotation distance: 4.428571428571429
And its neck is fully expanded?
Letβs try unloading again and moving the buffer manually to check its states
Is it clearing your toolhead sensor before it does the long move?
as in loading ?
So it should do a synced move to pull the silent clear of the toolhead sensor then a long move back to BT
does -2-3 short burst before entering filament sensor
What does it do when it is unloading?
nothing now
Rebooted now its ejecting slowly
I dont think that is correct either
At dinner but youβre so close!
π
ill wait
Letβs circle back here so we can watch for the toolhead sensor. It seems like itβs not being reliable.
π
lets see what happens
T0 then goes 2-3 short bursts to the tool head then I hear the TN2 make it 2 moves then its now al l he way in not sticking out
So buffer is not fully expanded?
inside of the box
I think I need to print a short diffuser to hold the ptfe more straight up
Lets see what Happens

failed bed will not pass QGL now
Too many retries or what?
too many retries
Restart your host and try again
0.3
mostly
finally after 8 tries
Now running qgl again front to back diagonal
Going to fail
Failed
What probe do you have mike
tap v2 choatic labs
are you at temp or heating up?
what probe are you using
CL TAP v2
timer to close now rebooting
Retries: 2/8 Probed points range: 0.002500 tolerance: 0.007500
That doesnt make any sense.
yes thats manual QGL
is your bed loose?
Is any part of your tool head loose?
You dont need to QGL 2x
i understand
i hit home /qgl
then I hit print ..then it runa QGL after hitting 150 then Front left to back Right
Mine just goes around the 4 points until its happy and continues on.
ill make a vid
mine does the 4 corners if i hit the QGL next to the home button
Sorry watching turtle video in back ground
Never seen it do that after hitting print
Now it's bed leveling diagonal
its foobarred
Discord seems to be having issues with media, I cant get your videos to load.
not moving any filament
im ready to rename my name to " I have no clue what I'm doing"
let me reboot
ill test the home / qgl
Yea guess motor dead
Only diagonal qgl
That explains it
Do you home normally?
yes home fine
then something is funky in your QGL all of a sudden if all other motion is normal
qill just order new motors ..ill be back in a couple weeks
nothing changed in config
Are you able to move the toolhead around normally using the X/Y controls after homing?
manual move tool head by hand only moving diag too
Check wiring or your stepper driver first then
so something broke
Stepper motors don't usually just die like that, they're pretty resilient
STEPPER_BUZZ STEPPER=stepper_x
STEPPER_BUZZ STEPPER=stepper_y
you can visually determine if the shaft moves etc
maybe a grub came loose or something (happened to me)
Motor isn't locked up, that moved way too smoothly diagonally
or wait, brain
Can you look down on the top and when you make an X or Y move see if a motor shaft spins separate from the gear?
I found the issue
Yeees?
checked my back up print config ....I dont know how this happened but he enable pin was missing the !
See! Nothing major!
Who knows what happens when you update klipper
Retries: 1/8 Probed points range: 0.002500 tolerance: 0.007500
ok
now to figure out why filament not extruding
What's your nozzle temp at?

eject it, reload and take a video of the whole load
Loud pop was the ecas being popped out
Ill have to reinsert it 1st it has done that
Yeah that sounds about right.
mine used to do crazy crap like that
The filament is getting stuck somewhere around the big extruder wheel more than likely.
Ok, was the filament stuck there?
noped ecas poppeed out again
guess the hub cutter part wil lhave to be re -pritned
No.
Something is causing a ton of tension thats why its popping out
We need to figure out what
Is it jamming in the extruder/hot end?
its making it that far i can see the filament going passed the tool sensor
let me make a vid for whan it gets close to the toolhead
It never picked up the toolhead sensor triggered...
AFC Hub Sensor
detected
AFC Tool Sensor

Unload the filament
It sounded like it did, it switched to the tool_stn move I thought I heard
So, again, is it jammed in the extruder or hot end?
appears
maybe i should bit e the bullet and get a different extruder/hotend
π
I mean CW2 is pretty cheap lol
CW2 has been super reliable for me
what hot end do you have?
And you likely have the parts for it laying around
rapido v2 uhf
That's fiiine
isn't there a mount for that?
YEs
the Rapido is a sweet hot end I don't think you need to change it
Even a Filametrix mount for it
So if you wanted to do toolhead cutter, those files are all available
for the most part
Nope, literally all the same parts
that's what I thought
BMG gears, a pancake extruder, and a couple of D2F switches would move everything inside the toolhead
The problem with G2E is you have to be super straight with the gears to get it to load, and then it likes to crush filament
mine has them....lol
It's a fantastic extruder for single filaments
Just not great for multi material stuff
yea maybe this weekend I ll have to reprint the cw2 parts
Yeah for stealthburner you only need to change the extruder part.
If you want to do Filametrix cutter, lmk, we've got links to the appropriate stuff for your hot end
sure why not
One moment then
im not getting anywhere with this stuff
literally everyone is using filametrix, so it's definitely going to be easier lol
is that one for the UHF
He has them. He said he would have given me them if I was closer. Because I had something he needed
ah good, I think there is a version that doesn't need them though?
honestly kinda wish it used the MR63's and the D2HW's cause they just feel nicer lol, but the bearings work too
I thought this one had said it was, but it sure doesn't look it
This one is
aaand it's only the front
god i love some of these lol
lol
Wish they'd throw in all the parts just so you only gotta go one plce
it gets confusing on what parts you need sometimes
They aren't updating jack all on the Filametrix github
I have some 5.5 mm bearings
filametrix parts are just a sprint and a cutter..... I think thunder got the grainger cutters workign I haven't messed with it yet lol
I think, can get cheap blades on amazon as well, but I know there have been some issues with them
you can, they chip crazy easy
mine has a notch in it from the filament....but it's still working lol
Okay, so these are the Rapido V2 UHF stuff
to who
You
you lol
oh ok
let me know how much
These are cheap af if you want to order as well
Like HDale said, liable to chip easily
Still gathering bits, one second lol
You have 5.5mm bearings and D2F switches, right?
shoot me $5 for shipping and I'll throw in a couple springs and a bunch of blades, or you can just get them from amazon for like $10 I think
DM me
oh lord, which spring now lol
Yep
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07QP8L1QG?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_fed_asin_title these are the blades I got......they work ok but they chip easy
if you have a grainger over there I'd go for those if they work. @hidden plank?
They work great
thanks ..ill get started on it
definitely look for a grainger then, they got em on the shelf over here
was like $7 and japenese blades
i have a grainger about 45 to hour from me
well they can ship too lol
is there a part #
ok
I think the theory was it should, but thunders were overly tight for some reason?
but I don't recall the outcome of that
I know @hidden plank printed a slightly wider one
I want to say it just stretched it in the slicer like 1mm
Just increase it slightly by like .1mm
I need to do that and swap my blade lol
is the sensor for the ballbearing switches?
hmm?
I dont have anymore switches with the flag's
Yep, uses a 5.5mm ball bearing
π
hmm?
Yeah, I have one in my hand lol
ok
I'm just trying to figure out how it wouldn't work lol
Are you using an X end stop on the toolhead?
That would change it
If not just use the XES port.
yes i am
Oooh.
Have you started printing parts yet then?
Mo
Okay, one moment
ok
your x/y endstops are on your tool head?
yes
I would assume just X.
yes
does the endstop connection have a spot for Y?
trying to look up the pinout for that thing lol
Toolheads usually only have an X
mine has x and y
Youre on a EBB format tho right? Or you were testing one?
let me double check
so it has 2 seperate endstop connections
yeah on that one there's only x but it also has a FS endstop
I can show you lol
I thought yuou just said you were running EBB style
I wrong ..tap v2 on tool head
but normally running nitehawk SB
and filadector
well you shouldn't need filatector if you are using the filametrix toolhead
but wouldnt that only use 1 endstop switch
Yeah so you wont need filatector with filametrix, so your sensor can go where filatector is wired to
gotcha
Entry sensor is better for our application anyway
i was confused on the dual switch
what is the HV connection for?
Yeah theyre there, but we're only gonna use the top one.
SB2040 is layed out different than NH
24v for sensor
It's got 3 total end stop pins, 2 are used for XES and Tap
Here's one with only the pre-extruder sensor
You can hook this up the same way you have the one you currently have set up hooked
I really wish they'd throw a few extra GPIO pins on these thigns
make them somewhat flexible
luckily the Nitehawk SB does have a couple lol
The RP2040 should have enough to break out, but yeah
kinda silly
my other prinnter has niitehawk
I thought about getting the mellow fly cause it was cheap, glad I didn't lol
Nothing wrong with it
well it just would of been a headache for some the sensors
well eventually we'll be able to use both sensors
I assume
idk I guess it doesn't really matter
Oh, because you relocated X to your toolhead... that's right
I like their faceplate board though
It's 1 pin short of being able to do all of that, which it's got a pad that might be able to be stolen for it
printing
nah that has nothing to do with it, I can connect all my sensors lol
oh ok
I was looking to see if there was something you could tap a pin from but didn't see much
Fan 2 is unused in most cases on this, however idk if you can tap it for IO
GPIO15 in this case
yea i have a fan connected 3007
wonder if you could use the PWM pins
It's got a face plate side that breaks it out like the NH stuff
I like the extra through hole connections for 5V and stuff on the mellow faceplate board
Mike, can you send a pic of your toolhead wiring right now?
I would assume you could set the pin for a sensor to one of the PWM pins and use that
but yeah fan 2 would be usable too
Same wiring just with fan attached to the fan pads
Fan wires too short to open since i broke them a few times
Okay, where are you connecting your current toolhead sensor?
GpIO27
Sorry, not your thermistor, your filament sensor
So that's where you'll have to take the one from inside the toolhead, you won't need Filatector any more
Cool, as long as we're all on the same page, get it printed/assembled/and wired and we can come back then
then just gotta put in all the stuff for the cutter into the config lol
yep
That's 90% getting positions right
2 hrs to print
Oh hell, we can work on it tonight if you have blades and stuff
I might have some blades but not sure
Ah, I mean, we can always try to do tip forming as well as a temporary thing
#4 blades ?
or the OLFA ones I have linked before
those work
needs to be cut/snapped to size - i used a jig off printables
search for filametrix jig
i went with whatever is on the BOM - i think 26
26 iirc
ok I found blades / jig
I just used some pliers and held the part I needed to keep in the jaws and snapped off the back side lol
same
Nozzle clogged had to start over
dang x1c nozzlew clogged and cant get it unclogged
But I thought those things just work all the time
1st clog 3k hours
Hf nozzle junk just will not unclog
I have to order new nozxle...think I'll get a revo
i got revo went from a rapido wont go back smh
for the x1c
Have a friend that just put the Revo hot end on an x1c as well
it's nice, but nozzles are going to cost more
you have a link to one i can look at . probaly not on sale yet
dont htink that works on x1c
yea i have TC for both vorons
Threw the obsidian nozzle in the trash. I order the revo
nope I tried it after re-installing it just clunkys over and over
even took extruder apart ..ran filament up throught the extruder
Riddle me this Mike.... Are you using a common filament on these machines that are getting the clog?
using inalnd galaxy black never had a issue until now
If so, I would probably stop using that filament. I have a certain PLA that always causes me issues so I no longer use it.
this is abs
Just an example. Its a PLA with a high glitter load and it leaves a lot behind in the nozzle. It prints fine but the next filament that goes in will have clogging issues.
Inland Galaxy Black should pretty much just be polymaker so its not too bad.
friend brought over a nozzle
yea
back in business
nice
one day I might get it finished
we all believe in you
finishing up the cw2 parts right now
nice
I think Im missing the front piece for the cutter
Looks like you have two back pieces
Yea i saw that
I thought i removed it but I guess I didn't
So printing front piece now
Unable to load module 'AFC_spool'
rerun install script
ok
now TN 2 error
mcu 'turtleneck': Unable to connect
Nevermind i found the issue
how do I get the t0 - t03 macros back
They are built into the software now
I was using them to test the lanes
you still can
how ?
