Success! Got all the axis motors and endstops hooked up. I was able to send a gcode file to the smoothie board and it started printing it (with...
No. You may not steal it. Yes, you can use it though. :D
Looks good. Here is what I came up with for the X stop. I took MichaelS' idea and moved the switch to the carriage and added Carl's Z stop bolt...
Got some pictures to go with that? :) Working on my own mount that attaches on the carriage that sounds like it might be similar to what you did.
So just to be clear, which is your X axis? The first or second picture? Also, how is the bolt in the Z axis setup with the spring?
Michael, did you ever upload the STL files for your endstops? I would really like to take a look at them.
Once I remembered you swapped your X and Y axis, it makes a lot more sense to me. Thanks for the pictures. Started wiring the motors in tonight....
I hate asking, feeling like a pest, but could you post photos of how the X and Y endstops are suppose to attach?
I used the forum's search function for the word endstop and didn't come up with much. Thanks for the pictures. Clears up things in my screwy...
I'm at the point where I am looking at installing the endstops on the printer. There hasn't been a lot of pictures showing how they fit on and...
Glad it all worked out. Sounds like they did go above and beyond to make sure you were satisfied. They are a small company. Probably no more...
Sorry to hear of the troubles you had to go through. That is completely opposite of my past experience. Hopefully it is not the start of a trend...
Update to the Corner Bracket file. Made the pocket for the screw head in the foot a little deeper.
I have modified Ruggb's corner bracket combining it with a leveling foot. I used a M5 x 20mm screw and 3 M5 nuts to put it together. [IMG] To...
Ruggb, what did you use to design those brackets? I was thinking of trying to mod them a little. I found this......
The Kysan 1040095 is rated at 1.5A so that combination could pull up to 3A. If you are using the standard driver chips for Ramps, you could be...
Are you running both motors off one driver for Z or using a slave driver? What motors are you using?
One driver/motor with 2 lead screws.
They work a lot different than a regular brushless DC motor. But they do draw more current under load. Unlike a brushless motor, which draws no...
Still not enough! I WANT EVEN MORE STEPPERS! ;) I have the current turned down to 1.2A on my Z motors. But even then, that is a total of 2.4A....
