In regards to your photo of the Fuller square and comment "With accurate cutting and filing (or milling if possible) it is possible to get a very...
Josh Disregard the rant on 16/32 vs 20/40. It's germane to using belts instead of lead screws. I had just woken up from a coffee/nap when I typed...
This is looking AWESOME Josh! A really clean looking robot. Using 20t/40t pulleys on Z axis for gear reduction will work, but it will also force...
richw I was wondering the same thing. But, if Josh is using 4 acme lead screws, w/bearings top and bottom, maybe the wheels are not even...
Keeping your 4 lead screws true to the bed and the carriage will be difficult moving them. I'd go with the idlers for tensioning (you'll only need...
Smooth, JOSH, real smooth! Love the design. :thumbsup: One thing you'll probably run into when you run the Z belt. You may need to place an...
Ah, yes, the second image in the galley list. Can't believe I never saw that before :oops:. Looks like a possible candidate for a dual extruder...
Mark, what wheel plate are you using, I don't recognize it?
Women will not be buying toy printers. Tiko isn't even a toy, it's an ornament. Women will demand and buy the same quality, speed and size as men,...
Actually I'm lazier than that. I'll leave the two on the right stationary and make the two on the left eccentric. Same for the Z axis wheels....
DarkAlchemist - "How would you get the tension right?" Gently. All 4 of the wheel axles on the X gantry have eccentric spacers. Bore the two...
Actually I'm not even sure I'll use the big wheels up there, I may use mini-wheels instead. That requires lifting the idlers up 4mm and attaching...
Nick Foley, I got the idea from David Bassetti's design linked on the Build tab. I'm running the wheels against 20x40 outside rails whereas his...
Carl, I think you are the one who encouraged me to build the corexy I'm using here back when it was on my CoreXY Enclosed. I abandoned that design...
DarkAlchemist, I really thought you were making up the name "Reworded". Now that I've looked at pics, I suspect that you would indeed have...
Thanks for the link Mark. It's good to see the engineering behind what I've been experiencing. It's not just my imagination.:D As for the use of...
I'm thinking of doing the plastic in Green Apple, and Cobalt Blue doesn't quite fit. And brass? Saw those. Brass? The way to use WiFi on AZSMZ is...
Hey thanks for the ebay link pal! I was headed out to the shop to look for a round to chuck in the lathe when I saw this. Considering my time and...
Good point on the 16T pulley! It doesn't look like there is enough meat left on a 16T pulley for an 8mm bore. Maybe - use a 5mm 16T pulley...
Thanks for the controller links! I just woke up, I'll check them out. Just as I was crawling into bed it occurred to me that I have 8mm threaded...
