I got a little side tracked again yesterday with thermistor problem on 3d printer E3D V6. I replaced it once, but can't see a problem. The only...
Not sure I would recommend my carriage. I didn't allow for those eccentrics properly in that had those holes countersunk, but wasn't really a...
I have everything hooked up except for power. Will hook that up tomorrow, check all my connections & see if it works. The X-axis might catch in...
I am definitely going to follow thru with this setup before seriously think of switching to gears. Putting idlers on both sides at the top will...
For some reason I was thinking that if I drove both wheels with the motor gear they would be moving in opposite directions. After thinking about...
I hadn't really thought about there not being enough teeth to engage it. I put the idler on the bottom to keep the belt from dragging on the...
I worked on the setting up the Marlin 2.0.4.4 firmware to run with the MKS Gen V1.4 board & was able to get it to compile. While working on the...
When I woke in the night, I was thinking of how I could easily get the pen up/pen down movement using a servo with gearing. Then got on the...
I adjusted the y-axis plate one more time. It took me 4 versions before getting it the way I want. It would have taken only 3 if I had put the...
Thanks Mark.. I am learning a lot from this build. Fusion 360 makes it a lot easier to design than my previous workflow of Draftsight Pro for 2D...
Glad I had not started reprinting these wheels yet. A friend just reminded about using O-rings & I was looking into that the other day but had...
I see a couple of problems getting the X-axis belt drive to work now that it is partially together. The standard way of using this belt with this...
This gearing might work. I would like to make it helical or double helical gears for a better connection. The drive gear is 13 teeth, the big...
Here is a cool Gear Generator webpage with animation. Think I have seen this before, but forgot about it until google found it again for me....
I got one side finished today & printed all the TPU tires. The other side should be finished tomorrow. I am using zyltech black TPU for the...
After pondering whether to make this plate a little bigger to accommodate both 60mm & 100mm wheels, I opted to leave the dimensions like they are...
I made some progress today. I did a test print of the basic assembly on the side plate with a 444mm length timing belt printed in plastic to do a...
Cool. Glad the upgrades are working for you.
David Bunch published a new build: To build a simple plotter that rolls along the length of large paper, foam core or other flat objects. Read...
Can you tell me where you can find wheels like the one's in your design? From the photo, looks like they are 100mm diameter or a little more. I...
