TBD on the gearing. It's all a matter of how fast I can move the printer and still get good print quality. I'm at about 60mm/s right now. Shooting...
How much bigger are you planning on going Antony?
I haven't done a thing with this project in a few months. Just been too busy. Once this bathroom reno is done, then I hope to get back to it. Next...
I don't have much in the way of larger prints, and fewer pictures :) Print quality so far has been great. I mean, how could it now with it being...
Really good price, but the size and resolution really kills the effective print resolution. Makes you wonder why, other than volume, they are so...
Thanks Bertrand. I'll take a look at the model later tonight. It will give me an excuse to poke around Fusion360 some more (I'm a long time...
You could drive them with Nema17's, but you may run into issues at higher speeds. This is not really what I would consider a "light" machine, and...
For filament, I have been using Hatchbox. I've had better luck with it than some other budget brands. I'm not really feeling all that inclined to...
Thanks for the clarification @mutley. Maybe one of these days when I decide to try out some more exotic materials (after enclosing the printer)...
You seem to have most, if not all of the parts listed correctly. I would order more screws and t-nuts than you think you will need though, as they...
I haven't used the reduction plates on this machine, as I don't actually need reduction. I was hoping to use the plates to speed up the axes (X...
Cool (figuratively and literally ;) ). Any and all airflow will help those drivers live a long and happy life though.
Looking good, but it doesn't look like you have much in the way of ventilation in the electronics box (unless I can't see it). Ideally, you need...
Oh well, you tried :) I figured that it's probably not going to be the easiest thing to change. Just seems like too high risk. It's a shame that...
Well, that shoots that idea out of the water :) What about end play in the spindle? I know that the Kress spindles are supposed to be pretty...
What's the details on the 25mm cutter? Is it an insert style cutter? If it is, it may be possible that an insert is lose and performs fine when...
Looks like the price on this is fluctuating a fair bit. When you posted this, it was about $36. Now it's at $45. That's still a pretty good price...
Glad that you are following along. Hopefully I don't take too long before making some real progress ;)
Yeah, but still. The initial cost of entry for a very high performance machine (resolution wise, maybe not speed wise) is insanely low. The cost...
