Is this a solid state relay? Solid state relays are different for AC and DC loads. For example, you cannot use an AC solid state relay to switch a...
I noticed in the Cbot thread you mentioned you had an Azteeg x5 but you had some questionable experiences with it. DId you have the v1.1?
That's a lovely birthday gift. Are you going to try it on the Cbot? I'd be very interested to see the performance differences when going from...
That print looks amazing Eric, now we can see why you went with such a tall printer height! I had an assembly question, I put together my corexy...
