Ender 5 Plus - Mercury 1 (Classic) with Stealth Burner and New Enclosure Project

[naive swan]

Yes 2 actually, I just need to add holes to the lid

Like so

[dawn vapor]

@naive swan Im chomping at the bit to use the whole thing so doesn’t mean much im sure but i think this looks soooo good!

[naive swan]

I will drop it on git hub soon

[raven widget]

I was thinking. you will push air from skirt to backpack with some tubing.
becouse right now fans in skirt look like spare one.

[naive swan]

I have a bunch of things that need cooling in there

[raven widget]

CG over 3K comments on your build 🙂

[naive swan]

Thanks, some of those are just random conversations though...lol

Alright it’s ASA time I think I found the issue, it seems that my sb mount and hotend cartridge parts are prone to heat creep. Abs seems to be good for some time and abs plus is good for 200hrs

[vocal terrace]

@naive swan outta curiousity u got a recommend coax- to ethernet setup?

[naive swan]

that is something i have done since 10 years ago, it not the fastest but it can work if you have a distribution hub for the coax but the price can be prohibitive since wifi mesh has gotten cheaper

also new ethernet drops may be more cost effective

[vocal terrace]

k. just don't wanna go through the annoying charges ith router

[mild hinge]

@naive swan Looking good

[naive swan]

wait, you are talking about the cable modem to a switch?

[naive swan]

Thanks @mild hinge

[vocal terrace]

have all in one rn. don't wnana pay for a router and wanna get good one/ setup

[naive swan]

oh hook up your own system and put the providers modem/router into bridge mode

[vocal terrace]

lol I as more looking to not pay em for it. or have most caught onto that stupid idea?

Alos it was what u thought with our router. the service si max 150.... we were 250

now were 100

[naive swan]

you can have them provision your own modem but they range from 50-150 (depends on if you need docis 3.1 or 3.0)

[vocal terrace]

lol LTT has video cause another sucker of canada

[naive swan]

lol yeah

[vocal terrace]

I just assumed go to actual dude who does this for a living

[naive swan]

in the US, some of the providers charge you less if you use their modem since it feeds their public wifi, which they charge for like when you go a plane or are at hotel style

[vocal terrace]

yea so for us looks like the cheapeat/ best makes u use theirs

[naive swan]

i caught on to what they were doing and put it in bridge mode(if i have to i will put it in a faraday cage ... lol)

[vocal terrace]

lol

[mild hinge]

@naive swan anytime

[naive swan]

Asa is printing nice

curious to see how it handles the bridges

[naive swan]

Wow the print quality of ASA is on another level, it looks like PLA

[dawn vapor]

Im doing all my merc prints in asa aside from skirts. Printing without enclosure. If you start getting it peeling up just add some mouse ears and it prints awesome.

[naive swan]

good tip, for some reason this print is coming out perfect....this may be the last time i print esun

nooooo?

!!!!

my canbus failed

So close

Only one part was left

What a waste

[dawn vapor]

Ive been using polymaker to mixed results. Best I’ve used though is futura apollo x. But thats premium lol

[deep vine]

Did you install your chain flex

[twilit edge]

ASA is alotta fun to print. Hopefully CANBUS is just a loose wire.

[naive swan]

Not yet

[naive swan]

Done

Ok, Asa does stink

But it prints well

[naive swan]

Honestly, I think it’s the ucan

It has happened when the printer is idle and cool

[twilit edge]

How's it wired up? Twisted pair cable?

[naive swan]

correct

one thing is for sure, ASA is way stronger than ABS+... Not sure if that warrants a 50% price increase over ABS+(and normal ABS) though

[twilit edge]

I believe for this it's supply and demand more than anything.

[naive swan]

really? i thought it was just more expensive. I would make the switch to all ASA but its not worth it if i am constanly generating 1 to 2 kilos of waste a month

and yes i keep track

[vocal terrace]

It's only 8 bucks more for ASA for spool then abs+ for me. But abs+ better sparkles

[naive swan]

im getting my abs+ at ~$15-17 vs polylite ABS at $21 and polylite ASA for $31.... and this is all for black only no colors

in some cases ASA is 100% more

[twilit edge]

Figure how much ABS gets produced as filament and how much ASA.

The mfgr has to figure in their production overhead for each material, each color.

It could also be more expensive, to boot.

[naive swan]

makes sense, dont get me wrong, i figured it was just more expensive. I just didnt consider demand had a role in that.

from my point of view, filament is tantamount to a commodity like wood or stone or foods. As more people use it for production, the more it becomes a license to produce as much as you can since it has the ability to store and its like a license to print money.

[twilit edge]

Taxes and storage costs. 🙂

Businesses keep low inventory to maximize revenue flow. Money sitting still is money not making more money.

[vocal terrace]

taxes dont exist

[twilit edge]

Right. My point exactly.

Since they are a figment of our imagination, we must ignore them and not pay!

[vocal terrace]

like britiah people

british

[naive swan]

yes, but i am talking about storage that happens at the last mile(vendors, amazon, etc). Commodities have the same "issues". The way that is resolved is via price and demand. Once Filament becomes a full fledged commodity then we will be in another ball game.

This is all in reference to why i was not taking demand into account for the price of ASA. While demand does have an affect into non-commodities, its normally temporary. Think GPUs in 2020 to 2022; Since every GPU had the ability to make money(Like Filament to a degree). I just didn't think there was that significant of a demand for ASA to warrant a temporary demand price move.

[twilit edge]

Ah, I think I see what you mean. I meant the opposite supply and demand effect: low demand limits supply, keeping prices higher.

Although demand is higher than supply, it's not high enough to warrant higher production numbers. One example is the few colors of ASA available.

[naive swan]

very good point, that i do see as a possible reason

[twilit edge]

Heh, I can see after your explanation why I wasn't making much sense earlier, lol.

As long as adding more PLA or PETG rolls is more profitable than ASA, we'll probably see it remain more expensive.

[naive swan]

i think that will go away as we have higher enclosed printer adoption

[twilit edge]

I agree. Give it a few years, though.

[naive swan]

yeah because any one can print that right now

[naive swan]

Cooling the mcu and pi won’t be an issue anymore

[naive swan]

i have no idea how to control based on MCU temp though

right now it just turns on when the hotend is on

[naive swan]

Ok all 6 fans are wired up and configured to .5 fan speed since I don’t want to overload the board, I may make use of the mosfet that came with the printer to power the 4 fans at full speed later.

Now to re do the mounts and hotend mount

[vocal terrace]

Controller_fan

Something like that

U want the one for tempature for not hotend/ activity I believe

There's a temp config that u can select the tempature awnsor

[naive swan]

yeah, not enough documentation

i already looked at it

it is way too vague

[dawn vapor]

What board are you using?

[naive swan]

skr 2 and an ebb

i have 3 fan ports and 2 heaters free

and 3 24v ports free as well

[dawn vapor]

Hope that somewhat helps. Still new to klipper and im just going to be copy pasting the crap out of code when o switch over from marlin lol

Im running skr2’s atm as well

[naive swan]

perfect

thank you @dawn vapor

i will make the changes after i finish installing my new asa parts

[naive swan]

it worked, i just had to remove the standalone temperature sensor section so it wouldnt conflict

[vocal terrace]

noice. I needa put together my V2.4 frame tmrw

@shell wolf did u put together ur tradrack?

[shell wolf]

nope! 😄

need more filament of that color

[shell wolf]

found some -- printing accents rn

[naive swan]

well the problem is my abs+, i can see why the red has an issue since its 2 months old but my black roll is brand new

my polylite ABS roll is printing like nothing else

i guess i am ordering some rolls to finish this project

[naive swan]

well i ordered some red ASA and ABS, and 5 rolls of ABS

just going to make the switch to polylite

too bad, i really liked the matte finish of ABS+

I need suggestions for a repo name

[dawn vapor]

Unofficial but most complete merc enclosure 😂

[vocal terrace]

Someone has frame in frame

[dawn vapor]

UBMCM

[naive swan]

lol

[vocal terrace]

@shell wolf most my stuff came in today.

[shell wolf]

what’s the haul?? Post it in ur build thread and tag me

[naive swan]

me too

[vocal terrace]

servo in the way. bearings. ecas. styepper people OMC motors

[vocal terrace]

they mean on the annex server. their tradrack beta

my sherpa gear

[shell wolf]

no I meant in here 😂

[vocal terrace]

cause fricekd other

[shell wolf]

I didn’t even know you could make guild threads in annex

[vocal terrace]

my carriage isn't here yet sadlu

tthe stupid bearings

7mm OD x 5mm ID x 0.5mm Thick - Spring Steel Shim Washer

[vocal terrace]

Ofc. Gotta turn this rod into diamond now well the fibers are good enough

[naive swan]

how dare you

[vocal terrace]

Wdym

[naive swan]

I need to tune for the abs but it worked

[naive swan]

Let Goku die....

[vocal terrace]

Man I've had this carbon tube for MPNTHSSSSS

[vocal terrace]

Watch it its good video.

[naive swan]

im sure it is....

he was supposed to never come back after cell saga

so they already tried that

Gohan was supposed to replace him

that was the goal...

@vocal terrace its like if they decided to bring all-might back with all his powers after they figured Midoria couldn't carry the show by himself

[vocal terrace]

Yea that would be dog shit. Fuck that

They do better shit though

I was wrong the epsidoe of the one person returning is next weeks

[dawn vapor]

If gohan hadnt sucked so much in cell fight and gone down the wimp route after it would have worked.

[vocal terrace]

It's gonna be certified banger

[naive swan]

Problem is All might was a shadow of the past not the main protagonist. In DBZ Goku was the main protagonist. Hence why it didn’t work out

[dawn vapor]

Totally stole gohans moment 😦

[vocal terrace]

almightalmight argubaly has one of the best final fuights

[naive swan]

Yep they teased him this week

[vocal terrace]

so far

[naive swan]

Sure but he is on a pedestal and used more as a comparison tool, where as Goku in this case was Midoriya

[vocal terrace]

it talks about MHA

[naive swan]

Witch of Mercury is ok by the way… kind of dumb

[vocal terrace]

what part

[dawn vapor]

Unicorn was my last fav gundam series

[vocal terrace]

I really liked S1 witch from mercuyr

[naive swan]

Nothing will ever replace the universal century storyline

[dawn vapor]

Thunderbolt is good too though

[naive swan]

I think when they go into these non war series they always seem to be ridiculous narratives

[vocal terrace]

srsry coup 1

it isn't non war.

[naive swan]

If war wasn’t the driving narrative then gundams would not need to exist in those timelines

They are not at war

They are peacetime

Sometimes it can work

[vocal terrace]

no. they are literally fighting the earth people who are rebelling

[dawn vapor]

But mah dating chivalry match requires a wmd.

[naive swan]

Also rebellions can work as a narrative

They are not at war though

Or getting attacked

And it’s not like they really pose a threat

[vocal terrace]

uuu didnt finish all 12 episodes right

[naive swan]

In that case, it would work if earth had the gundams

[vocal terrace]

bro. I can't say anything

u havent finished

[naive swan]

No just dubbed which is at 7

[vocal terrace]

trust me u will be happy

[naive swan]

Sure

This better pick up

[vocal terrace]

it does.

[naive swan]

This high school narrative is bs

[vocal terrace]

but I almost spoiled the show lol

[naive swan]

Nah

[naive swan]

If you hadn’t have said anything I would have stopped watching after episode 6, 7 for sure

[vocal terrace]

trust mne

IT IS GONNA PICK UP

bruh u didnt like the mom being a buttheadand creating that epic endig

[naive swan]

that was a bs episode

had nothing to do with gundam

just corporate politics

if i wanted that i would watch Suits

[vocal terrace]

lol

I think this is tgundam tjhe corporations seasons

lol

[naive swan]

Done

[vocal terrace]

CANCELLE

oof the voron door handles

ngl I'm suprised u ain't make own

[naive swan]

They work ok

Simple is the name of the game here

Time to program the screen

[vocal terrace]

ngl I'mma not add screen

[naive swan]

It was for looks and it was cheap

So why not

I have a 7 inch that I want to mount up top

It was also a “give options” type of deal

[deep vine]

looks really good mate, good job!

ive ordered the ebb36, they where out of stock but seems like they have sent me the SB2209, i hope it will fit the SB with the orbiter 2

[vocal terrace]

bruh

its so much better they did

2209 is got cable

[deep vine]

What about cooling tho, when the can board is on the back ther is space for a fan…

[vocal terrace]

it has better space. if u mount it up more (fan) then u could prob get away with losing no X

[deep vine]

Have you got any pics of your tool head?

[vocal terrace]

no.

[deep vine]

🙃

[vocal terrace]

mine is finally in tmrw

its 2240 version

tmrw or friday says

[deep vine]

I do like the fact it comes with a cable tho

[vocal terrace]

but smaLL crimps

[deep vine]

2240, is that for 36v?

[vocal terrace]

24V still

[deep vine]

What’s the difference?

[vocal terrace]

built in temp sensor

and more

[deep vine]

Ahh I see

Sounds good

[vocal terrace]

well I got ut cayse yolo

[deep vine]

Big kids,

[naive swan]

2209 is good

it can be mounted without a special mount

[vocal terrace]

yee

[naive swan]

but you will want a fan

and 2 heatsinks

[vocal terrace]

found use for my pins for 2.4 for idlers cauyse have smaller ones

its pog

[deep vine]

May not fit with orbiter tho

[vocal terrace]

u look at my thread?

[naive swan]

true

[vocal terrace]

it may

u just gotta look

@naive swan Mini12864 Troubleshooting Checklist
The Mini12864 display can be a little tricky to get running correctly. Here is a short checklist to help double check some of the common issues.

Have you Rotated the headers on the back of the display? See Hardware above
Is EXP1 connected to EXP1, and EXP2 to EXP2?
Have you enabled all the config sections? you must have [display], [output_pin beeper], [neopixel fysetc_mini12864], AND [delayed_gcode setdisplayneopixel] to fully enable all features of your display. (many users may not feel the need to enable [output_pin beeper])
Voron 2 dual MCU configurations: Is your firmware configuration in agreement with your physical wiring about which MCU board the display is connected to? ( As provided in the stock printer.cfg, the display should be connected to MCU-Z )

[naive swan]

saw that

this is my problem

Fysetc Spider Only: The Fysetc Spider requires certain components to be removed from the mini12864 display.
From a Fysetc display, remove R1 & R4
From a BTT display, remove R1 & C6

what does that mean?

[vocal terrace]

thats spider

u got mainboard not spider

lol

[naive swan]

Ok gear rebuild time

If this doesn’t fix it, I am done

[dawn vapor]

What are you trying to fix? Under extrusion?

[naive swan]

Yep

I found the issue

The gear was grinding on the idler arm

Took some time to notice because the white was not showing

But now it has a red hue

The new gear has a lower profile

[naive swan]

We will see if the 15 vs 30$ kit is worth it

[naive swan]

Ready to go

But first I will sleep

[vocal terrace]

u didn't do good gear mesh

I am sad

[shell wolf]

I have some of fsyetcs helical gears coming in

Wanna compare those to ridga

[vocal terrace]

Noice

[vocal terrace]

Oof I'd assume was cause other gear with that issue rip

[shell wolf]

And a vzzz 👀

[vocal terrace]

Hehehe I got one already

[vocal terrace]

U see it's retraction speeds

[vocal terrace]

60mm/s is vez speeds for retraction

[naive swan]

the cheap gear was much thicker, leading to clearance issues

[raven widget]

EBB36 wit 31865 , can use NTC too or it can use only PT100 or PT1000 ?

[vocal terrace]

....

That's a easy question

Both.

Max31865 is an added circuit

Don't wire ntc to it

[naive swan]

both, 2wire 3 or 4 as well

ptc has its own port

a 4 pin

ntc is a 2pin port

[raven widget]

i start thinking about upgrade to CAN Ebb36 w31865 and U2C v2.1 and orbiter 2.0 ,

[naive swan]

ok, its a good upgrade

im happy with it

[raven widget]

I have breaking wire in cable chain

I am not sure about orbiter becouse CW2 and orbiter look same in main design

[naive swan]

yep, always a problem

@raven widget the only reason i would drop cw2 would be for a metal solution. like the Galileo (the sb version is not available yet)

[raven widget]

i see few ppl witch say vz- hextreuder, but its same design as CW2

if somebody doesnt come with 4gear drive i think CW2 its good enought

[naive swan]

that too is a really good option

[raven widget]

when you chose EBB 36, did you also look at SB2209?
I'm still considering whether U2C is necessary? for Octopus pro v1.1

[vocal terrace]

Not if u have RJ12 crimps.

[vocal terrace]

It's better design. I have one wayyyy better

U2C is ch3aper if u don't have the crimps/ easy setup ones. U2C more documentation too

Rj12 programming or easy wiring stuff

Usb-can isn't bad to setup. But like look at it's price vs U2C

2209 is a biach to deal with the micro pins

[naive swan]

it is not neccesary and sb2209 uses tiny connectors so i noped out

i have 2 ebb36s and the mellow sb 2040, all with utocs,(1 mellow, 1 BTT, 1 Fystec

[vocal terrace]

I dont recommend mellow

Yes BTT has the heater issue but u can not wire it to start. Welp Mellow has no bootloader

[naive swan]

before it was the only intregrated option for SB

[naive swan]

BTT fix that by changing the pin in v1.2

[vocal terrace]

Yea

But still was an issue. It's common too with em. I just say to let people know vs of issues

I believe annex doesn't recommend em after that lol

[naive swan]

I think the problem is youst dont know if you are getting the latest version

[naive swan]

Fingers crossed

[raven widget]

witch one igus cable you bought ?

https://www.tme.eu/si/en/details/cf10.07.04/cables-for-power-chains-shielded/igus/

[vocal terrace]

West 3d di theirs

[naive swan]

west 3d

im using cf113.018.D

[raven widget]

2x0,25 for H,L , 2x2x0,5 to power ?

[naive swan]

2 cores and 2 twisted pairs

[naive swan]

possibly

so 6 total on this one

[raven widget]

nicer color ,nicer price why it so far 😄

[naive swan]

well igus sells direct

its cheap worldwide even

west3d is about the same price depending on how you order

the more you get the better igus direct is

ok print status, my issue is resolved, i just need to tune my EM

[raven widget]

y, from dirrect order its look like -25% even in europe. 2days delivery not bad

[naive swan]

i have it at .95 but i think i need it to be .89 to .93

[naive swan]

yep its pretty good

i think they dont bother with middle men since they have way too many options and vendors could not handle the inventory requirement

they are german company with a global footprint

their products are used for manufacturing in all kinds of robotics

so they have reason to have a local footprint in most regions

[raven widget]

they have nice solutions for cable chains, i thing this guys pwn roller coster bussines 🙂

[naive swan]

they are the go to for most robotics production, industrial cnc, and most industrial cable management

and they have fair pricing for the quality and warranty they provide

[naive swan]

So i learned a lesson....

[vocal terrace]

u shit on ur printer

or lick mains?

[naive swan]

i bought this https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B097YL3C6J/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1

[vocal terrace]

.....

[naive swan]

then bought this https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B08F7MW72N/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1

[vocal terrace]

fabreeko kit prob better

[naive swan]

the later was way better

[vocal terrace]

bruh

that second looks like traingle labes one

[naive swan]

its from polished

[vocal terrace]

keep ur brass gear

[naive swan]

they are a good vendor

[vocal terrace]

for ur tradcrack

[naive swan]

i have a bunch of extras

im sure this would have been good

https://www.fabreeko.com/products/bondtech-sherpa-mini-bmg-internals-screws?_pos=2&_psq=bmg&_ss=e&_v=1.0

[vocal terrace]

no

go ridga

CW2 has files for it

[naive swan]

but 10$ cost me at least 60$ in filament

[vocal terrace]

or someone did mod im alot more know about

whut

[naive swan]

ridga?

[vocal terrace]

bondtech ridga gears

new integrated gear/ other gear

https://www.bondtech.se/product/bmg-reverse-integrated-drive-gear-assembly/

more accuracy

wiat its getting a cw2 I belive

might be reverse

[thorny vine]

@naive swan i saw that you had trouble with the toolhead getting to hot for abs right? would you advise to still do it with abs or go with asa?

[vocal terrace]

my abs+ tooldhead can do 265C easy with sparta3d filament

abs shouldn't be issue if u have abs, if u have asa just do asa

[thorny vine]

i have neither

[vocal terrace]

buy asa.

[thorny vine]

but i cant find the color in asa i want 😓

[vocal terrace]

then go abs and accept the risk

what abs u buyibng

[naive swan]

Asa for sure on the hotend carrier and mount to the rail

[vocal terrace]

and where u located

[vocal terrace]

what printing temp?

[thorny vine]

The netherlands

[naive swan]

For anyone looking to build this and in the the US…. Get this 10pcs 500mm V Slot 2020 Aluminum Extrusion Black European Standard Anodized Linear Rail for CNC DIY 3D Printer and Industrial Bracket Making https://a.co/d/dh8cxw0

[vocal terrace]

what filament company?

[vocal terrace]

why 10

[naive swan]

250c on polylite

[vocal terrace]

bruh how that melt

ur hotend fan is crap

I do 265C with a rapido on my V2.4 and no issue

[naive swan]

hol up burg

[vocal terrace]

its a sunon fan.

[thorny vine]

i only have some bulk black pla from creality, so i dont have any specific companies i order from

[naive swan]

what are you asking

[vocal terrace]

polymaker for abs

get their asa

through their website

[vocal terrace]

was ur plastic parts getting too hot

cause that low of temp is sus

I'd expect ur fan isn't good

[naive swan]

abs plus was warping at that temp

fan is fine

[vocal terrace]

wait warping?

did u ever dry that filament?

[naive swan]

no burg your misunderstanding

[vocal terrace]

just general warp?

[naive swan]

Abs plus would melt and warp at 250c

Polylite ASA and ABS would not do that

[vocal terrace]

yea I see the extruder fricky there lol

[naive swan]

so in my opinion you should do these 4 parts in ASA

at minimum

[vocal terrace]

my sparta abs+ is good for those pieces oof

[naive swan]

yeah i wouldnt risk it

better safe than sorry

[vocal terrace]

just go full asa but abs+ is normally fine

I do 265 as nozzle temp too

[naive swan]

ASA cost 50% more so i dont want to push anyone that route for everything

[thorny vine]

Hmm thnx for advise 🙂

[naive swan]

This is EM 95% so just a quick test and I am ready for full bed plates again

I think my abs+ may be salvageable as well

This was poly lite abs that I just printed

[vocal terrace]

I think it prob needs to be dried

[naive swan]

yep the 2 rolls that i have opened have been in the driers for 48hrs

[vocal terrace]

thats long enough

lollll

like way

[naive swan]

lol its humid right now... my Whole home dehumidifiers have dumped over 10 liters in the last 2 days

officially in thunderstorm season

[vocal terrace]

L

canda :

[thorny vine]

I think ill do black asa for those parts and do green abs(+) for the accent color parts then it should be fine

[naive swan]

i try to keep the house at ~43%

[naive swan]

which parts exactly?

[vocal terrace]

ill take a photo of my parts after 100 hours of printing 265C

[naive swan]

i did temp tunning and nothing changed for me before, but i will check again

[vocal terrace]

im really suprised abs+ turned out that poo

[naive swan]

it looks good but it can not take the heat

[thorny vine]

Atleast those 4

[vocal terrace]

mines been fine with heat

its prob just that blend

[naive swan]

i run fans at 50% and i think it was blowing alot of hot air its way

[thorny vine]

But i think ill do all the tool head parts that primary color in black asa

[vocal terrace]

50% is ur issue

100% for hotend I akways do

just get a sunon

why not always 100%

[naive swan]

for part fan

[vocal terrace]

oh.

yee I did 50 too

[naive swan]

that will be good

@thorny vine just remember to tune between filaments

[vocal terrace]

that is clown behaviour

everyfilament is tuned

[naive swan]

lol

[thorny vine]

How do you mean tune?

[naive swan]

some people dont tune every param

[vocal terrace]

ellis print tuning guide

every filament u need to tune

[naive swan]

even color changes need a tune

[vocal terrace]

^ ESPECIALLY

I have some filament EM of 93.5

some 92.2

some 95

all same type same comapny

[thorny vine]

Aah yeah i get it 🙂 i make sure to do that

[naive swan]

https://ellis3dp.com/Print-Tuning-Guide/

@vocal terrace not just that, temp, rotation distance, fan speed, retraction

[vocal terrace]

rotation distance no

U do that 1 time

then em

rotation distance is 100mm/s without heatup

100mm not s

I don't do temp or really retraction

depends on my printer

my E3 V2 I do a 0.2 from filament of retracton but 265C cause strength

[naive swan]

different brands are smoother or rougher and have more resistance in the reverse bowden and extruder

[vocal terrace]

but EM helps for that too

Thanks @mild hinge , im dropping files this weekend

still need a repo name

[vocal terrace]

Vengeful get omnifixos

[mild hinge]

@naive swan nice

[naive swan]

[mild hinge]

@naive swan Ill have to order some more filament

[naive swan]

did you get the extrusions yet?

Omnifixo arms

[naive swan]

@mild hinge if you havent gotten these yet, they are a good deal https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0B9XFCJ3S?psc=1&ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_product_details

[vocal terrace]

Why so many

Oh

I'm.stupid

Go on

[naive swan]

you need 10 for the build

[vocal terrace]

Cancel me bengeful

I forgot ur enclosure

I just use this to talk to u LOL.

[naive swan]

9 500mm and 1 400mm

well i did an em test before checking my rotation distance.... i was off by 1.13... fml

[vocal terrace]

https://omnifixo.com/

Thank me lager

[naive swan]

i started a print that is not impacted by clearance so much and just guessed an em of 91%

[vocal terrace]

I do 93

[naive swan]

i look in a bit at that @vocal terrace

[vocal terrace]

As guess

92 I find normal for abs

[naive swan]

i think i will end up at 89-91 for this one

ill be back

i have a class

[mild hinge]

@naive swan no not yet

[naive swan]

ah ok thats a good deal

[mild hinge]

yea

@naive swan Ill keep and eye out for the link these weekend for the stl's

[dawn vapor]

Im at 15-30part cooling on abs and asa

[vocal terrace]

Low

But no enclosure

[shell wolf]

let’s see ur beat castle

[vocal terrace]

Let's see ur sick beats

[vocal terrace]

@naive swan u thinking of ever cpap or 4028 fan?

[naive swan]

if i go external air the i will do CPAP since i have 2

[vocal terrace]

u have 2...

like mellow ones?

[naive swan]

no my wife used to work for a company that donated them

[vocal terrace]

oh sick

hol up

she watch anime

[naive swan]

and they had some that were only used once and returned and they couldnt donate them again

so she had them in storage and i gave them 20 for them

this was when i realized people were using them for this

[vocal terrace]

poggers

[naive swan]

no anime

she could care less

[naive swan]

i got nothing

i could bust out revit architecture though

[vocal terrace]

are u thinking of ticking trident or hydra bed?

hydra then making a trident?

[naive swan]

good question, i am going to wait for a hydra kit but i have started sourcing trident parts(the rails specifically) and the extrusions. i ordered 6 500mm z rails

[vocal terrace]

damn

[naive swan]

hydra would be the fastest implementation if the kit was available

trident requires a remix to fit the e5plus

so thats time i need to invest

problem is i have an order of 150 champagne flutes to laser first....that my wife ask me about at lest once every 2 days

[vocal terrace]

oof

I think imma do 2040s for my frame now

the flipped X it is

then add on the extra stuff

I'mma do prob the brackets gonna use for voron and blind joints as option

[vocal terrace]

those brackets make the ez trident middle part

[naive swan]

The prints are good now

[vocal terrace]

too much watter

unlike u

drink water!

That part is so annoying cause they have to be together

[naive swan]

what parts?

[vocal terrace]

the mini1865

or whatevr

186 5 something

[naive swan]

well i reprinted them because i forgot to tune

[vocal terrace]

my trad rack has so much ghosting lol

[naive swan]

the 2 parts in the middle are the z wagu mounts

[vocal terrace]

hehehe i need speed

[naive swan]

specific for the e5plus bed with mains installed

and stock Z

but i am using knock off wagu connectors

so they are not for public use

[vocal terrace]

lo

l

[naive swan]

unless they have the same knock of connectors

[vocal terrace]

vengeful opinion. do I do 2040s or 4040s. 4040s i'd make doomcube style with

[naive swan]

I need to print containers

[vocal terrace]

lol

[vocal terrace]

and get better allen keys

u look at http://omnifixo.com

[naive swan]

if cost is not an issue then 4040 but only if you are going 300mm or higher

4040 on 250mm printer would be overkill

[naive swan]

hey i got that one with some thing

[vocal terrace]

I want it to be scalable. Ideally I'mma do 2040s and 4040s

[vocal terrace]

bruh

I got nice wira

wiha

[naive swan]

I like more then wera ones

[deep vine]

I used a big one

[twilit edge]

Ooh, that'll keep nicely. My printers are in different rooms, though, so my filament has to be more portable.

And there's a lot of it. LOL. LIke over 20 dryboxes, I think.

[stuck summit]

its not bad... am more danmachi guy myself 😄

[naive swan]

I’m going the big container route now

with these on each stored roll https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3222374

i have a vaccumm sealer as well but i dont know if that will be part of the plan

rolls only last me a week sometimes

[twilit edge]

Those rubbermaids you're storing rolls in are what I print out of. Cut a hole in the front, add a PC4-M10 coupler...

[naive swan]

Yep

Ahh nice, so you must mean 0.07

[vocal terrace]

nah

the 1 ones

I have PA-09 but those iws-2820M i've heard really good things

[deep vine]

Are they smaller than jst like?

Does the sb2240 come with pins?

[vocal terrace]

yee

they are JSt

but not XH

[deep vine]

I don’t see why my pliers won’t work then, I’ve done loads of jst with them

I agree they arnt nice to work with tho

[vocal terrace]

So top is PH. Strip the sb2240. Other is XH

They are Wayyyyy smaller

[vocal terrace]

these aren't same JST

[naive swan]

hartk said it causes clearance issues on the SB

[vocal terrace]

I believ it

I'm prob gonna just solde rit

[naive swan]

are they jst sh?

[naive swan]

thats what he did

[vocal terrace]

I actually really do like this board so far. only thing is the small heatsink. Ideally were more of em

I'm gonna prob make a PG7 mount and fan mount for board

https://www.printables.com/model/383128-voron-24r2-pg7-cable-gland-with-spring-steel-wire-

I might do this without the steal wire lo

@naive swan u using PS, SS Orca or cura?

I'm gonan prob move from SS to orca now

[naive swan]

@deep vine you may need to get something like this

@vocal terrace SuperSlicer all the way

[vocal terrace]

im swapping to orca cause its actually getting updated

until ss does

[naive swan]

I ended up just buying more heat sets

Sinks

[vocal terrace]

lol

I have 10 of em

15 cause got more drivers

I also orderd 10 more 5160 heatsinks

I just cut the pins on my 2209 tops

then add 5160s cause heat is not my friend but enemie

[naive swan]

i dont know, nothing revolutionary is really happing on those updates. Once that happens then i will switch

[naive swan]

that was enough for me to walk away from the 2209. for now

i have 3 can boards right now

[vocal terrace]

dang

what u got it on?

https://www.printables.com/model/412909

@naive swan this reminds me of u

https://www.printables.com/model/411788

Guess printing this

[naive swan]

looks good

[vocal terrace]

I didn't realize was lgx lite....

[naive swan]

yeah...

[vocal terrace]

lol

I might modify for 10mm fan not 7mm

[naive swan]

problem is i have beacon as well

[vocal terrace]

where does its usb board mount?

[naive swan]

on the fan

[vocal terrace]

oh

[naive swan]

or on the adxl mount

if you have a 2 piece

[vocal terrace]

ur other board is where?

[naive swan]

i use ebb36

[vocal terrace]

https://www.printables.com/model/402744

this seems bad

[naive swan]

so 1 board

[vocal terrace]

I mean 3d0 board

[naive swan]

for me on the back of my 5015

[deep vine]

Ahhhh

[deep vine]

Oh snap!

[naive swan]

ph is easy

[deep vine]

Where does the fan go?

[naive swan]

I use the 1st hole for ph

[vocal terrace]

there isn't that why sketch

[deep vine]

Ahhh, has anyone design a fan mount yet?

[vocal terrace]

its suffocating

well they do the dual boards there

thats why its sketch. 2 board so close. 1 being a heater

[naive swan]

and this is why you dont use the 3do cam with 2 piece boards

[deep vine]

Yeah, scary

[vocal terrace]

lol

oh there is 2 versions of them boards

[deep vine]

Water cooling?

[vocal terrace]

not with that

stealthburner doesn't seem like water coolings friend

[deep vine]

Do you mean because of water and electricity

[vocal terrace]

no its so compact

[deep vine]

Oh right yeah

[naive swan]

cpap would solve all of this

[deep vine]

Cpap can cooling 😄

[naive swan]

yes

[deep vine]

Drafty abs prints lol

[naive swan]

its not crazy

nah you went the air towards the back

[deep vine]

Do you mean a separate coiling tube just for the cam board?

[deep vine]

I like the idea tbh

[naive swan]

yes

like an air assist

like what i use on my laser

[deep vine]

Omg yes I love this idea

Show me your laser

[naive swan]

you can get them for like 50

lol

[deep vine]

😂

[naive swan]

[vocal terrace]

so the crimpers for these guys are 1.25mm pitch

[vocal terrace]

gargamel (known for crazy good crimps) Didn't even really have tool for it

[naive swan]

It was a different time then…. We built with plywood… the year was 2019….

[vocal terrace]

lol

[deep vine]

Nice, I see so it’s using like a pvc tube

[raven widget]

i want one too ... but wife kill me 😄 "my expectation are to cut tranpsparent acrylic "

[naive swan]

Kinda, it’s rated for drag chains and soft, 6mm OD maybe 7mm I think

[naive swan]

It can’t cut acrylic, you will need CO2 or a 40w laser…. Which is pricey

I asked my wife for a 40w toolhead… you would think I asked her for concubine

[deep vine]

Okay, maybe it could be an even smaller diameter, what sort of heat is being scrubbed from the laser?

[naive swan]

Heat none, just smoke and fumes

[deep vine]

Oh it’s a vacuum?

[naive swan]

The metal ducts are exhaust

This is the air assist

[raven widget]

I know , but neje make nice steps even in led tool heads but that price is too high.

[naive swan]

Xtool is just asking for too much money right now. If I get the 40w I might as well get a Chinese co2 laser for 3k

I’m about 1200$ into my laser

2nd tool head is 10w

[deep vine]

Okay, when I get my ebb sb2209 and enclosure built I think I will build and test a system like this

[deep vine]

Mabey with a 5015 fan

I have a 4028 fan lying about somewhere

[naive swan]

I think you could swing a 50$ air assist and get cool air just to the can if the heat is too high

It can’t be regulated though

Just on and off

[deep vine]

What does this do that a fan and pipe could not do.
The fan could be regulated from the mcu

[naive swan]

it can push the air down a small hose, basically it has more back pressure

fans can't compress air

[twilit edge]

I mean...

[naive swan]

so small hoses cant carry air as well

@twilit edge yes with proper design and a strong fan

but it will be loud

[twilit edge]

I'm pulling your leg here. I know you're not designing a turbine engine in there.

DUCTED INTAKE CPAP! MAXIMUM LAMINAR FLOW!

[naive swan]

well we were talking cpap but then we started talking "send cool air to the can via a small hose"

[twilit edge]

Then I got a wild hair up my backside and now we're in no-fella's-land.

[naive swan]

yep, thats exactly how it went down

[twilit edge]

But for real, I saw water cooling mentioned and dunno if that was someone else or you thinking aloud.

[naive swan]

the enclosure thread went off on that tangent and it almost started here as well

[twilit edge]

Whoopsie. I'll just...ah... poof

[naive swan]

i mean its a great build

[twilit edge]

If you mean yours, yes. 🙂

[deep vine]

Ahh okay, so the pressure

[naive swan]

thanks, i know there are some good ones that most people have not seen because they didnt do build logs

[ionic plaza]

yeah, you can skim through the serial announcements, there are some amazing builds all around

[naive swan]

completely agree, too bad you only get a glimpse

[ionic plaza]

I love the “vanilla” design, it pretty slick. It’s quite impressive how minimal design choices such as color and adds on can make a difference. But what shines in my opinion are the enclosures. even early on there are incredible ideas. I wish there was a more official focus on that

[naive swan]

there is but it takes time, the problem is the overhang of the gantry, it took me 3 months of tinkering to figure mine out.

since i didnt want the added heft of more vertical extrusions

[ionic plaza]

I am thinking thick wood side panels (~18mm) and bother my neighbour to borrow me the router to dig the side of the y axis 😬

[naive swan]

that wood work

[ionic plaza]

and bolt everything with t nuts on the frame… it’s a so basic design that it might just work

[naive swan]

just leave your self some clearance for insulation barrier

[naive swan]

it basically how i started, but i used coroplast

oh snap ltt was deleted?

[vocal terrace]

bbruh

I gave us this news yesterday

[naive swan]

i thought it was just floatplane

[vocal terrace]

bruh no

floatplane was up only

[naive swan]

you need to be more clear

you went fox news

[twilit edge]

Supposedly it's back now

[vocal terrace]

yea it is

[naive swan]

yep watched the break down of the events

this will be the main topic for wan show

[vocal terrace]

already confirmed as topic

[naive swan]

yep

Also got a roll of Red ASA

[naive swan]

damn you ucan dropped connection again

[vocal terrace]

oof

what speed?

[naive swan]

whatever the guide said

does that affect anything?

[vocal terrace]

yee

s tabilit y\

500k is coomon to be good

some need 256k

[naive swan]

1000000 speed

fails after 3 hrs

[vocal terrace]

prob too high

askg gargamel

[naive swan]

might be pawer issue from le potato as well
