Here's a plan for you: Download and install Sketchup Make Download SketchUp It is a free program (I used it to design the Vulcan). Although...
Yes, only change is to 3d printed parts. Problem was that the idler bearing eventually gets cocked to an angle pushing the filament unevenly on...
Printing the rework now. Should be proofed out next week. I take it you are working on a class project, sort of a 'how does it work, why does it...
I could save each part as a png, then with ms paint you could 'print' them to a pdf.
Andrew I'm reworking the extruder at this point. I plan to publish a rework next week. You should be able to import the STL files into Solidworks,...
The advice to use 16:20 is for a M8 threaded rod. M8 threaded rods have a 1.25 pitch. A 16:20 reduction changes the threaded Z screw pitch to 1mm...
Your pitch is 2mm per revolution with those screws. Change the motor pulley to a 20 tooth pulley as you do not need reduction (keep screw pulleys...
Exactly which TR8 screws are you using? It sounds like your screw's lead is not divisible by .01. What are your pulleys? Both the one on the Z...
As you tighten the wing screw the nut does move up, compressing the spring. Since the wing screw remains stationary against the bottom of the...
The slot that the spring and screw fit into is the width of the nut, that prevents the nut from turning.
YES they do. The pancake looks good in all of their promotional pictures, but in the small print it turns out they wouldn't use a puny pancake...
70 mm/sec on perimeters. Just 3 perimeters.
Something that size I print w/50mm/sec infill, 30 perimeters, 100 travel @ .2 layer I use 100/mm/sec infill, 70 perimeters, 100 travel @ .2 layer...
There are two levels to consider. The first layer level and the rest of the layers. If the first layer of both machines are indeed level and are...
Keith Davis published a new build: Light enough for high speed #3dprinting Strong enough for high speed #3dprinting Read more about this build...
I had a custromer ask me to redesign his TrueUp Glide for 20x40 Z upright using v-wheels. Here's what we came up with. The SKP is the entire thing...
Thanks, I'll be giving them a try
I particularly like the hue of orange filament you used nspence. What is it? Where can I get it?
LOOKS GO LOOKS GOOD! I'm thinking about reviving the OneZ Kits after Jan and will be reworking it, and the BOM then. I agree and apologize that...
Consider using OpenBuilds Tr8*8-2p lead screw. The Nut Block I use for the threaded rod is my M8 adaptation of OpenBuild's Nut Block for the...
