this looks good right

pallid laurel
#

Looks really good👍

covert wagon
#

looks good

#

do you have strain relief for the cables

#

well ig you can zip tie to the duct

pallid laurel
#

I love these super fancy looking toolheads and then you have to loop zipties around everything because easy strainrelief wasn't on the designers list of requirements

weak imp
#

They acc have that cadded in lmfao

#

I believe then it maybe hits the cpap thing

#

What abt this spacing

#

There’s only .3mm from a pin to the nozzle in z height

zealous wraith
weak imp
#

Okay

#

And I assume the red bit is where there can’t be like any metal

zealous wraith
#

Not the end of the world if there is metal in there

weak imp
#

Okay

limber laurel
#

moving metal in the keepout will be very annoying

weak imp
#

Back from Scotland so I might work on this perhance

weak imp
#

I bought some abs-gf and pa6-cf

weak imp
weak imp
#

I’m at the point where I’d pay someone like $30 to cad a decent toolhead

#

should i just go bowden with the boombox

#

that would make life sm easier

limber laurel
#

what's wrong with the current ones?

weak imp
#

all overcomplicated

#

kevins just look so simple

#

ive tried using breackneck but its bad

#

uap is weird too

#

ive tried cadding my own but i cant

weak imp
#

would it be dumb to print kevins toolhead out of pa6-cf

#

or should i use abs-gf

#

i have both now

#

ive decided to just use this

covert wagon
#

use abs

weak imp
#

Bambus website says it’s good for stuff that needs to vibrate

weak imp
covert wagon
#

belt tension

#

it won’t be able to handle it

#

just use abs-gf

#

it’s lighter weight

#

and better

weak imp
weak imp
zealous wraith
#

this is old

#

like, really old

weak imp
zealous wraith
#

this is the most up to date one

weak imp
zealous wraith
#

it also uses the new belt mount

#

and klack probe

weak imp
#

Oh I adapted your old belt mount for bltouch

#

I’ll prolly try to do the same for this

zealous wraith
zealous wraith
#

klack is pretty much free and better

weak imp
#

How is it better

zealous wraith
#

bltouch rattles and vibrates at high accel

#

the only thing you need to do for klack is print some parts and get some 6x3 magnets

#

and for the switch you can reuse the Z limit switch

weak imp
#

When I removed it my shaper graphs got so much better

zealous wraith
#

swap over to sensorless

weak imp
#

I did

zealous wraith
#

so you lost all your limit switches?

weak imp
#

Nah idk

#

But the x and y are on a pcb

#

But don’t I also need wiring

#

And macros

wraith fulcrum
#

Wiring is just two wires

covert wagon
weak imp
#

True

#

The klack ender says you need a rly specific probe tho

#

And a tzv6

zealous wraith
#

You can just cut it off

weak imp
#

ill prolly steal ur y at some point as well

#

this the wr printer right?

weak imp
#

Am I dumb for this

#

I think so

hardy steeple
#

It would have almost zero rigidity

#

The purpose of a rail and extrusion is to provide a means for alignment and rigidity on the axis. Belts can twist very easily unless under super heavy load, so they’d be unable to support the weight of a toolhead in any way that could be used on a printer

covert wagon
#

At least not noticeably

#

They provide rigidity and keep everything in place

#

With just belts it would be bouncing all over the place

#

I mean I guess if you ran like double 20mm belts it might kinda work but good luck doing that lmao

#

Resistance is negligible from the rail

#

But if you want you could spend a couple thousand on air bearing linear guides

weak imp
#

It was js a dumb idea I had

weak imp
#

Bought everything for Kevin toolhead and y axis with 9mm belts

#

I’ll have to make my own y axis belt mounts cause I always fuck up drilling

#

But this don’t have to be super aligned so maybe it’ll be fine

low whale
#

theres a drill guide

#

on the cad. . .

weak imp
#

oh

#

for the belts

#

cool

weak imp
#

Abs gf

weak imp
#

Hotend fans and bolts come Saturday the rest from Ali comes aug 1st

#

Goal is just a fucking working 3d printer

#

I’ll go 9mm for y axis too

#

Maybe

#

I can’t copy Kevin’s cuz of my carriage mounts

weak imp
#

are these m3 or m4

#

it says m3 but i feel like m4 would be better for the fans

limber laurel
#

m3 because m3 fits

weak imp
#

but this is 4.5

#

seems a lil loose for m3

hardy steeple
#

I used M4 with a nut

#

M3 you’d need a washer but you can use it

#

If you don’t have M4

weak imp
#

so i can put an m4 heatset here

hardy steeple
#

I mean you could if the OD of your heat sets fits the hole 🤷‍♂️

#

Idk what size your M4 heat sets are

limber laurel
#

why waste space and weight doing m4?

#

might as well just skip the heatsets and ziptie them or make snapfit

weak imp
#

Damn this abs gf part feels weird to touch

pallid laurel
#

Its made for m3 heatset inserts

weak imp
#

i build kevin toolhead with ONLY the fans

#

cant even do 500/500k

#

new motor time probably

#

what do i get

#

i have the omc 48mm

weak imp
#

also wow these 5015 fans suck

#

my cpap has sm more

#

aux cooling time

#

cause this is BAD

weak imp
zealous fox
weak imp
#

Okay but what motors should I buy

zealous fox
#

2004s1 is pretty good

#

i think

weak imp
#

the 48mm omc?

#

i have those

weak imp
#

But eh I mean leadshines won’t give me better quality

#

Just a faster benchy which is useless

weak imp
#

I also bought shit for Kevin’s 9mm y

#

Comes in like 2 weeks

#

All of it

weak imp
#

why is it still ass

#

It’s JUST fans

zealous wraith
#

It's missing the hotend and extruder, and that's not how ur supposed to attach the accelerometer

weak imp
#

True I was js trying shi

#

Anyway it’s nice to see it move again after not in months

limber laurel
weak imp
#

Huh

#

I mean ik it’s a nozzle probe I was just trying stuff

limber laurel
#

the adxl itself is the problem

weak imp
#

Why

pallid laurel
#

sees its own vibrations if its not securely mounted

zealous wraith
weak imp
#

Okay I’ll js go pla for those should be good

zealous wraith
weak imp
#

like its better?

weak imp
#

incase anyone cares i made a thread for a 10 day 3d printer cad attempt :)

#

looks like this so far

weak imp
#

ah hell no

#

temu kevin toolhead

hardy steeple
#

Well to be fair Kevin just found it as a random CAD on OnShape and didn’t make the original design

#

Was clearly heavily based on Stinger toolhead

weak imp
#

I thought he fully made it from scratch

hardy steeple
#

Nope. Was some random CAD he found because OnShape makes all your work public unless you pay for it

#

He modified it for duct length and some other minor changes

#

But it was basically 80% ready when he found it

weak imp
#

Wait that’s crazy lmfao

#

I remeber Kevin said he wasn’t great at cad and I was thinking “how’d he cad THIS”

hardy steeple
#

Well he got better at cad and some of the stuff now is a lot better but that toolhead was one of the first things IIRC

pallid laurel
#

Pretty early in kevins hero arc

weak imp
#

I’m ngl, I might cad a 3d printer to get benchy wr

#

Like 50mm bed

#

Bowden

#

Only aux cooling

#

Awd everything

#

48v

#

Wouldn’t that basically be guaranteed

low whale
#

Yup

weak imp
#

Aaaah I wanna now

#

With that $350 grant thingy

#

mgn 9 or 12 for a 100mm rail

weak imp
#

its so cute

weak imp
#

would i need 9mm belts for x

#

or is 6 fine

spice warren
hardy steeple
# weak imp Like 50mm bed

If you’re going for WR benchy you only need a bed as large as the base of the benchy which is only like 30mm

#

Doesn’t need to be as wide as the full thing

weak imp
#

well yes but the belt

weak imp
#

ill get that later though the bed is easy to change

hardy steeple
#

You only need the base to stick so the rest can hang off the sides but yeah

weak imp
#

this is it rn

#

planning to use boombox

#

awd x and y

#

48v

#

to be honest this will probably never be built but maybe

zealous fox
weak imp
#

i mean it weighs 72g

zealous fox
#

with ducts tho

weak imp
#

im gonna pull a kevin and only do aux cooling

#

like 3 massive blowers

zealous fox
#

tou still need ducts to direct the air

weak imp
#

kevin doesent

#

nvm

hardy steeple
#

Kevin is using open “ducts” to direct the aux cooling down towards the nozzle

weak imp
#

yeye i see

#

i could just go abs so less cooling though

#

sureley for a benchy u dont need too much cooling

hardy steeple
#

ABS or PC-ABS are generally the best for speed benchy since they’re very rigid when printed and get a lot of flow but they still need a ton of cooling when you’re stacking layers in seconds or less at a time

weak imp
#

ill figure cooling out later

#

motion system is harder

#

his is only 1 motor per axis

#

i want 2

#

cuz why not

hardy steeple
#

Money probably

weak imp
#

i mean id gladly pay $50 more to get the edge over other people

#

cuz u also need more drivers

hardy steeple
#

A single 48 N17 will easily move a bed that small but I mean it can’t hurt to have more

#

If all-out is what you’re going for then yeah do 5 motor

weak imp
#

well i was gonna use boombox extruder

#

so i think 6 drivers

hardy steeple
#

Wasn’t counting extruder but yeah 6

#

I was just talking motion system

weak imp
#

ah

#

cute lil 150mm rails

#

i wanna put the tensioner on the bed but i know thats bad cuz it just adds vibro

hardy steeple
#

Yeah it’s just extra bulk on the bed, not really any reason to do it

weak imp
#

would make motor mounts easier to cad

#

i wonder how much this whole thing would cost

#

i think like 300

#

but if im spending $300 i BETTER get the wr

hardy steeple
#

I mean you might be able to save some money if you hack saw some longer extrusions

#

Since you’re going so small lol

weak imp
#

Do u think id get wr

hardy steeple
#

I mean as it stands right now I think it’s just that anybody who is the first to build a tiny purpose build bed slinger would probably take it

weak imp
#

Sooo me if I make this then

hardy steeple
#

The T250 record is impressive but it still honestly an inferior motion system for speed

weak imp
hardy steeple
#

The fact somebody took WR with a CoreXY is impressive but Kevin was also barely trying

weak imp
#

Well yeah

#

The custom printer I cadded is a small bedslinger but I think this tiny one would get it

#

I guess it’s just, is the satisfaction worth $300

hardy steeple
#

I mean it’s also a hobby project for the next couple months and if that’s what you enjoy I don’t see anything wrong with that if you’re not strapped for cash

weak imp
#

I mean that would be my 3rd printer build at the same time

#

Ender, custom one, and this vaulthah

#

But I mean wr would be so cool

#

I’ll cad the y motor stuff tn

#

Yes it’ll look just like Kevin’s

weak imp
#

ok maybe ill steal kevins

#

y axis

#

this is unironically harder

#

and im a lazy mf

#

might as well take his toolhead too

#

but that feels wrong if i got wr with HIS stuff

weak imp
#

yes this is his

#

but i made it 9mm

weak imp
#

x axis is gonna be a pain to cad

#

made tensioner 9mm

#

i should make a new thread

#

#1398014751790858370

weak imp
#

IF I MAKE THE X AXIS OUT OF 2040 I CAN USE THE Y AXIS MOTOR MOUNTS FOR THE X AXIS

#

WAIT AND THEN THE 9MM BELTS WILL FIT

#

it just needs a z axis

#

any ideas?

hardy steeple
#

What is the motive for making the X a 2040 extrusion? Is it so you can pass the belt through the middle? Or just so you don’t have to design anything?

weak imp
#

both

#
  1. too lazy to cad currently
#
  1. it lets me use 9mm belts so it can go through
zealous wraith
#

at least not with this design

weak imp
#

R u sure?

zealous wraith
weak imp
#

Oh ye that is easier

#

I’m also lowkey too lazy to finish this cad

weak imp
#

8500rpm fans came

weak imp
#

I never ordered this

pallid laurel
#

Any mains voltage bits on the printer?

weak imp
#

nope

weak imp
weak imp
#

Wow my P1S js prints everything amazing

#

Abs gf

#

Motor mounte

#

Would making the belt tensioner out of pa6 cf be dumb cuz creep

low whale
#

Yup

weak imp
#

AAAAND NEW MOTOR TIME

#

my pulleys are stuck on the shaft

spice warren
weak imp
wraith fulcrum
weak imp
weak imp
#

Yay it’ll do 1100/50k with just the carriage

#

I’ll put the bed on later

weak imp
#

POS

#

cant even do 800/50k with bed

#

x axis cant even do 700/1mil with just the stepper

#

is it 48v time

weak imp
#

ok thread revival time

#

goal is a print done by the end of tn

#

this is WITH kevin toolhead

#

why is it still so shit

zealous wraith
#

how are you mounting the adxl? you can see the peak is clean but it's vibrating in the Y axis too

#

also, this is a lis2dw right?

weak imp
#

yep

weak imp
#

WAIT

#

I HAD IT AT A 45 DEGREE ANGLE

zealous wraith
weak imp
#

vibro is still super high though

zealous wraith
weak imp
#

but at a 45 degree angle

#

basically

zealous wraith
weak imp
#

yeah

#

but it doesent fit straight

#

it needs to be at the angle

#

i think i just suck it up and go with what it gave me probably

zealous wraith
#

honestly, just dont look at the vibrations

weak imp
#

oh

#

its good then

zealous wraith
#

I think there's something wrong with the testing setup

weak imp
#

ive had super high vibro on every single toolhead ever

#

thats why i spend $60 on the kevin toolhead

zealous wraith
#

try just using 81hz mzv

weak imp
#

i still gotta tune pa and y is

#

but after that i can print

zealous wraith
#

yeah. id print with it and see if there's any ringing

weak imp
#

goal is a voron cube by tn

zealous wraith
#

bc this matches what I get amost exactly, except I have 0% vibro

weak imp
#

oh deadass?

zealous wraith
#

so there's probably something wrong with the lis2dw setup

weak imp
#

i fianally did something right

#

yay

#

its a little sad cuz its no longer my printer

#

its ur design

#

but yours is better tbf

#

i spend god knows how much just to go back to your shi

zealous wraith
#

I mean, this toolhead isnt even mine

#

I just modified an existing one

weak imp
#

y axis

#

btw the new y axis isnt any faster for me

#

id assume its better quality though

zealous wraith
#

it's not faster, but it should be better quality

#

yeah

weak imp
#

great minds think alike

weak imp
#

@zealous wraith what is ur PA value

weak imp
#

and input shaper for y

zealous wraith
zealous wraith
weak imp
#

Owe

#

The can cut my finger

weak imp
#

im lazy

#

im gonna print the canvection

weak imp
#

This ain’t that sus

#

It has like 1mm of clearance before touching the nozzle

zealous fox
#

um

weak imp
#

its fine

#

trust

zealous fox
#

idk about that

#

there’s a reason they are normally made out of metal

weak imp
#

Well it doesent touch

#

And at some point I’ll use pa6 cf

zealous fox
#

but heat radiates out

proud wagon
weak imp
#

why are mfs always on abt creep

#

its not load bearing at all

zealous wraith
#

Let him cook 😂

weak imp
hardy steeple
weak imp
#

Okok

weak imp
#

kevin slide ur orca profiles

#

idk why but i cant print fast at all

minor shell
#

Vid? @weak imp

pallid laurel
#

Do you want a molten mess? Thats how you get a molten mess

weak imp
#

how so

#

wdym depisot

pallid laurel
#

I have a 25ct deposit on cans here

#

Recycling etc

pallid laurel
weak imp
#

ill stick with this for now

#

its printed some items and its fine so far

#

i cant even do like

#

450/40k tho

#

its kinda ass

weak imp
#

but basically quality isnt great

#

and it like lifts off the plate sometimes

#

and its not rlly fast

#

kinda disapointing i spent this much money just for it to be bambu level speeds

minor shell
#

No rush

proud wagon
weak imp
#

Please

#

Ur just a hater

weak imp
#

I mean

#

It’s good

#

Just wished I could print at 700/50k like Kevin

hardy steeple
#

Really think you guys just need to block each other and move on

past wigeonBOT
#

@proud wagon

fry3000#0 please see the rule below:
Rule 2

Be excellent to each other. First, be kind. Be helpful. Keep all feedback constructive and framed positively.

split creek
#

If you don’t have anything constructive or positive to say, keep it to yourself, thanks.

#

I see a history of popping in here and being a general ass, making this warn long overdue

covert wagon
covert wagon
weak imp
#

Yes but it’s hard to cut

covert wagon
#

you can cut soda can with scissors

weak imp
#

im kinda limited by flow rn

#

and max speed

#

i can only realistically print at like 300/20k

weak imp
#

300/20k

pallid laurel
#

Niceyay

weak imp
#

Ope

#

Print failed

pallid laurel
weak imp
#

It’s a lack of flow

#

Part is the tzv6 nkt having as much

pallid laurel
#

I mean tune max vol flow🤷

weak imp
#

Other part is I don’t have the 80w heater yet so it cools down to 195c

#

And at 195c I’d imagine flow sucks

pallid laurel
#

Mine topped out at 30 mmÂł/s with the mze and PETG

#

Stock heater

weak imp
#

But PETG is less flow

#

But jeez

#

30 is disappointing

#

What’s also disappointing is how my y axis isn’t as fast as it was with 6mm belts

#

Tops out at like 700/60k

#

Impressive detail tho for 10k outer walls

zealous wraith
#

you need to put it on something better than carpet

weak imp
#

Ohhh yeah

#

And cross support feet probably

weak imp
#

Prolly smth solid I think

#

Idk

halcyon tiger
#

a concrete paver is a common one

weak imp
#

Oh wait I actually might have a spare one

hardy steeple
#

A paver on carpet would work pretty well. It gives even dispersal of pressure across the printer

weak imp
heady kestrel
#

Bolt printer into the floor 5Head

weak imp
#

Anyway thank you so much to like all of you guys along the last like 9 months helping me with shit

weak imp
hardy steeple
zealous wraith
halcyon tiger
weak imp
#

That’s what cnc machines do

halcyon tiger
#

yea

#

also my workplace has one printer with a cast base

#

weights 10 tons

weak imp
#

Don’t they like fill their extrusions with cement

heady kestrel
#

You don't have a robot arm as printer that's bolted with 24 M18 bolts into a 5000kg solid steel base? thunk

halcyon tiger
#

thats a cheap way

hardy steeple
#

V-chonk but the entire base is a solid CNC block of steel vaulthah

weak imp
#

I feel like a cnc machine would be a fun thing to have

covert wagon
low whale
covert wagon
#

could be worse but

#

why do that to yourself

heady kestrel
#

Blender has that CAD addon, it's not that bad

#

i use it from time to time shyuwu

covert wagon
#

i would argue it is that bad

#

onshape is free

#

idk i know people who unironically use Roblox studio as cad so

hardy steeple
# covert wagon

I mean I see it being possible to get relatively close to this with just a drill but I’m sure a CNC makes it way easier

covert wagon
hardy steeple
#

Yeah of course. Wonder how much it would cost to get somebody locally to drill press it

#

Also that X gantry is nuts

#

Double rail

heady kestrel
#

Print a template, Drill using the template, You can get prety close tolerances depending your template :d

hardy steeple
#

I mean depending on application the tolerances don’t matter TOOOO much

#

Motor alignment maybe but linear rails you better not mess that up

covert wagon
#

lemme try and find a photo

#

It’s a tz v6 with this screwed into it

#

And there’s the flat ceramic heaters literally kapton taped to it

hardy steeple
covert wagon
#

lol

weak imp
#

Prints wayyyy better with 20% fan speed cuz more flow

#

80w heater should fix stuff

weak imp
#

ok silicone sock fixed that

low whale
#

Logan pls cable manage a little 😭

weak imp
#

wait i could see this thing being really good for prototyping

weak imp
#

Issue is I keep changing shit

weak imp
#

weird i only get 160mm of y axis build area

#

i think i gotta rotate my extrusion 180 degrees

#

160x200mm build volume is shit for a 235 bed

covert wagon
#

Print quality looks good tho

covert wagon
#

Maybe?

#

You should be getting like 200-220

zealous wraith
#

I get full build volume

#

100%

covert wagon
#

Close enough

weak imp
#

its about 40% faster than my p1s

covert wagon
#

Now just buy zip ties 🙏

#

You can even door dash them

weak imp
#

Kinda great quality

#

Esp for 10k outer walls

#

I wish I could go faster than 300mm/s but it’s whatever

weak imp
#

but jeez this printer is so nice for rapid prototyping

weak imp
#

.25 tolerance

hardy steeple
#

Not bad for the speeds

weak imp
#

True

weak imp
#

Ok I js can’t get over it acc working

#

And being reliable

weak imp
#

wait my y cant even do 500/50k

zealous wraith
weak imp
#

Yes

zealous wraith
#

the only other thing would be the rail alignment

weak imp
#

It’s not that I think

#

It’s smooth

weak imp
#

80w heater came but I’m far too lazy to install it

weak imp
low whale
#

what me and kevin do to keep it up is

#

hook this to the clip and attach to the top x extrusion

weak imp
#

clever

weak imp
#

I still have some ringing but im too lazy to fix it

weak imp
#

Also the printed convection is picking up filament

#

So prints aren’t great

#

Time to print a fresh one

covert wagon
weak imp
#

nahhhh

#

im lazy

covert wagon
weak imp
#

hard to cut

low whale
#

you can use sissors

pallid laurel
#

Get a bunch of these kind of scissors

weak imp
#

Aaaand I think my hotend is leaking

#

Despite it all being hot tightened

halcyon tiger
#

is it a DIYd hotend or bought?

pallid laurel
#

No mk8 nozzles in that one, yes?

weak imp
#

Ewwww

#

I bet cleaning everything would fix it

weak imp
#

Well fuck

halcyon tiger
#

after tight comes loose and after loose comes work

limber laurel
weak imp
#

I don’t know if this was a cht

limber laurel
#

that bore is pretty big to not be

weak imp
#

True

pseudo isle
wraith fulcrum
pseudo isle
#

which one

wraith fulcrum
#

The mze one

pseudo isle
#

which mze one

#

lol

#

still kind of how the printer looks ngl

#

not a snapped heatblock now but a nozzle

weak imp
#

Amazon sent me extra nozzles for some reason

#

So now I have 30 hardened steel volcano nozzles for $6

pallid laurel
#

Time to make a DIY big bore nozzlevaulthah

zealous wraith
pallid laurel
#

Not with that attitudevaulthah

weak imp
#

Print quality is utter shit now

#

It used to be perfect

#

ohh

#

i think its a lack of flow

#

cause im not using cht

halcyon tiger
halcyon tiger
weak imp
#

So what is this then

weak imp
#

@zealous wraith how much flow does ur tz give you

pallid laurel
#

Mine does 30 ish mmÂł/s with mze

#

petg at 240ÂşC

#

I usually cap it at 20

weak imp
#

Are theee nozzles just shit that I got

pallid laurel
#

🤷

weak imp
#

Would that cause inconsistent surface finish

pallid laurel
#

Did you increase temp for hardened steel?

weak imp
#

No

I’m already at 230 though

Like 20ÂşC extra

Research Article: Investigating the effect of fabrication temperature on mechanical properties of fused deposition modeling parts using X-ray computed tomography

Premise
Experimental investigation on effects of fabrication temperature on mechanical properties of FDM parts is presented. Specimens fabricated at temperatures ranging from 180 to 260 ∘C were used for this investigation.

TLDR:
PLA has been shown to benefit from printing at elevated temperatures, even as high as 260C. Some of these benefits include higher density, lower internal porosity and improved interlayer adhesion. These benefits amount to a stronger part.

Caution:
Take care before exceeding 225C to ensure your machine and hotend are up to the task. Stock machines usually are not safe above these temperatures due to a ptfe lining see ?ptfe-temps for more info.

you also melt at higher volume means it wont actually reach that temperature

weak imp
#

Okay I’ll try that for the last half of this benchy

#

Maybe the filament is wet

weak imp
#

I mean

#

The prints come out like shiny

weak imp
#

Hey wait

#

These look 2 different fucking sizes

halcyon tiger
#

one looks worn

#

the edge is rounded off on the hole

weak imp
#

I bought a $3 brass cht

weak imp
#

It finally came and it prints

#

This one seems to have slightly more flow so I might be able to push speeds more

#

My motion system is still slow for some reason but I think I’m still flow capped

weak imp
#

Still has weird surface texture but it’s not that bad

weak imp
#

How could I fix the artifacting

hardy steeple
#

Looks like extrusion inconsistency to me

#

Looking to spots like that where the lines look very inconsistent stacked likely due to extrusion

weak imp
#

The gear has so much play in it

hardy steeple
#

The small play in the gear shouldn’t be an issue when the filament is in there and has proper tension on it

#

The play is so that the gears can line up properly on the filament

weak imp
#

I meant the gear that goes on thr stepper

send pic

weak imp
#

This one wiggled

zealous fox
#

send a video

weak imp
zealous fox
#

seems like a bearing died

weak imp
#

Nope

#

That’s just how it fits

#

The hole is too big

zealous fox
weak imp
#

It was like that as soon as I installed it

#

If I could fix that though it would make my print quality better right?

zealous fox
#

are you using the large bearing version?

weak imp
#

No

#

I’d switch to that

zealous fox
#

take it apart and inspect the bearings

weak imp
#

The hole for the bearing is too big

zealous fox
weak imp
#

I’d have to disassemble the whole think

#

Thing

#

And also layer adhesion sucks for infill

zealous wraith
weak imp
zealous wraith
zealous wraith
#

This is the tall version of protoXtruder right?

#

So that it fits the toolhead

weak imp
#

OHHHHH

#

FUCKKK

#

the tall version must already have the bigger bearing

zealous wraith
#

Yes

weak imp
#

Anyway Kevin what speeds do you print at

zealous wraith
#

I default to 500mm/s on everything, and each filament profile has its own flow limit

weak imp
#

What accel

zealous wraith
#

With 300 outer wall bc I find that to have the least VFA for the motors and drivers that I am using

zealous wraith
weak imp
#

I do 10k outer 30k everything and 330mm/s

#

1.5 sec min later time

#

Layer

#

But for some reason

#

Reducing my fan speed to 50% makes the infill actually stick

#

It’s so weird

#

I hope it’s just wet filament

hardy steeple
#

Yeah uh looking at the video that gear is not supposed to move lol

#

The gears that touch the filament sure

#

But that one definitely isn’t

#

So yeah seems like a dead bearing like 1mon said

zealous fox
#

dead? it’s missing

weak imp
#

Prints without the infill issue now

weak imp
#

Maybe it’s cooked

#

My y can’t even do 500/100k

spice warren
weak imp
#

mhm

#

could also be shot motors

#

but ive basically accpted it

#

the prioject is kinda done

#

but

#

then again i getr layer shifts sometimes and its just 500/40k

weak imp
weak imp
#

x axis cant even do 500/200k

#

HAS to be motors

#

maybe i should just rebuy the same ones

spice warren
#

My 2104 will go in my ht printer

weak imp
#

I wonder what my future project should be

#

I really want one of the h series printers but an idex ender could be cool too

weak imp
#

And lowkey dangerous

spice warren
#

Plus probably 500 in accessories

weak imp
#

And what are you gonna use it for

spice warren
#

Making parts for new machine

weak imp
#

Real lmfao

#

I could also make my sv06 plus corexy
