Not if the belt tension is set correctly (which you need to do to reduce/remove backlash). You will stall the motor before the belt jumps a tooth.
I know a lot of the people here use Sketchup due to the fact that it's free, but it's not what I would recommend. Don't get me wrong. It works....
The plate for the belt reduction was removed from the store to be updated. No idea when it will be back though. Mark posted this in another thread...
I noticed that the plate has disappeared from the site too. What's the word on that? I wonder if it's from the email I sent with some suggestions...
I've been thinking about going a similar path with my C-Beam Machine build. From the sounds of it, it will work great. You may want to consider a...
I was under that impression too, but if there is a polarizing layer that is 90 degrees to the one in the LCD itself, then it may help pass more...
I got the spectrometer on the LCD over the weekend, and got results I wasn't expecting. Both 405nm and 420nm were attenuated about the same, down...
I'm in the process of two "first builds" I count them both as firsts, as neither one is finished, and I'm building them at the same time ;) First...
Hopefully I will have some empirical evidence soon once I get around to getting the spectrometer out. Then we will be able to definitively see...
Well, I managed to get some work done over the weekend. [IMG] The actuator isn't in it's final position, and the whole thing has not been...
Not sure what else you want to know that hasn't been spelled out in the build description. X/Y resolution will be 96 microns (+/- a smidge) based...
Don't worry. I've dealt with much higher power led setups than this will ever see. Cooling won't be a problem. I'd much rather have the array...
Looks like my Openbuilds order will be here tomorrow! I won't be able to touch it until next week though, as I'm heading off for a short vacation...
I was in the same boat. The DLP projector based printers looked so cool, but were huge, and expensive. I can build this entire printer for a...
Well, I don't claim to know it all. I'm still learning as I go, but I have a decent handle on light and optics principles. I've done a lot of work...
With my highly calibrated eyeballs ;) No, I have an Ocean Optics USB4000 spectrometer. I won't be able to get an absolute reading (I would need...
Well, almost everything has been ordered. Only thing left is the resins, and I'm going to hold off on that until I can get an idea on what the LCD...
I found a few sources today for LEDs that look like they could be a drop in replacement for the LEDs used in the backlight, and I can get them in...
Possible. I have the laptop already, and like I said before, I at the very least have one of the last revisions of the free version.
That's what I was thinking too. 65 seconds per layer is still far faster than any hobby level FDM printer, and that number can be reduced...
