I have a 200 wide 300 long TrueUp in my shop. It didn't need a heat bed, so all I did was add 100mm to the Y extrusions extending forward, a...
The OneZ was designed first, that's why it still used the linear bearings (it was an adaptation of an earlier design). Adapting a TrueUp to...
I use the M8 (5/16")-1.25 x 1 m Metric Threaded Rod from Tacoma screw. The TrueUp is designed for that screw. It uses a standard M8 nylon nut...
Use a 20T pulley on both the lead screws and the Z motor (you don't want the gear reduction). In Marlin, cut the steps per mm in half for the Z...
BTW, you can also add a M999 gcode to the End G-Code in Slic3r to automatically cause that reset to release the Y axis if you keep it engaged at rest.
That is a fake M8 nut. It goes below the M8 nylon nut in the glide body. A M5x10 set screw impinges against this fake nut to keep the nylon nut in...
"but what has been my biggest issue is the non printing moves" You are moving a LOT of mass on the Y axis. Especially if a layer ends with the...
Sure, here ya go -> http://3dwrx.com/TrueUp/kit-dae.zip The SKP collection is separated into individual group files, each ready for printing. The...
Into.
Hedgehog Since you just road up to 3d printing, here's some history on print beds. To his credit and acclaim, Prusa developed the first heat beds,...
PLA should be fine, the bondtech is removing the heat before it gets close to the mount. The belt keeper teeth are a nice touch, but unnecessary,...
You're missing the experience of putting one together - once the build plate is mounted, it is extremely hard to snake all of the rear wiring down...
So, convince me what you would accomplish. You seem to be applying a solution to a problem on other printers when that problem does not exist on a...
You would need to design a way to bolt any other extruder to the X carriage. The X carriage has two M5 mount holes 20mm apart. See following...
No benefit. I'm using 1.8 motors.
If you use course thread M8 the pitch is 1.25mm per revolution - the Z motor needs 16T pulley and Z screws need 20T pulleys to get 1mm per motor...
If you are thinking of also milling, here's how I would beef things up: 40x40 extrusions The bottom frame (20x60) does not need to be 60 high as...
I've not tried abs, but years ago i did a Z screw through pla and was surprised by how quickly I was getting backlash. By quickly I mean, I...
Two advantages of the nylon nut 1) nylon is self-lubricating, pla and abs will wear over time 2) nylon is an elastic polymer, the treads can...
Save yourself about half the cost Drew. Don't have them print any of the controller boards box parts or the Y motor housing, or the housing under...
