Hopefully I will know in a month or two when I complete my build and fire it up! I have all the parts except for the control board for a dual...
Did you trim a piece of of your large sheet for your other printer? What is the build plate size and what is the printer model? Did you use 3M...
Ok, I'm back to my original plan with two leadscrews - I think it is worth proving out before over-engineering a solution to a problem that may...
How about the QuadBot Titan?
I'm salivating for the delivery of my control board now - it looks like they have decided to deliver it with 7 on board 8825 stepper drivers (and...
Since we're ultimately looking for 1's and o's (is my hot end touching the build plate?), the primary use of the piezo here is for it's...
After much further mental gymnastics I am definitely leaning on staying with the dual screw config. I plan on performing extensive testing to...
In response to your question see #40 (I can't seem to figure out how to respond directly).
To clarify for someone that asked me a question, my question wasn't about being less problematic to build/maintain - a dual leadscrew would be...
[ATTACH] Here is a partial re-imagining of my build with four belts in lieu of leadscrews. I'm still not completely sold though. My leadscrew...
Forgot to add the cost of two more steppers - about $36 (will print the extruders) - total cost to go from 2 to four extruders will still be under...
Sorry - https://www.sparkfun.com/ http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:707392 "Preliminary BOM (sparkfun), subject to change: COM-08375 Capacitor...
I know my leadscrew config is simpler, cheaper, and easier to maintain. What I would appreciate are other opinions on pros and cons of dual screw...
Have you seen this (http://www.openbuilds.com/threads/h-bot-corexy-cube-with-fixed-build-plate.1528/#post-15733)? One less thing on the gantry...
How heavy would you say is too heavy? What weight is optimum? Is 'weightless' actually desired? Do you think my current lead screw config would...
Yeah, my son sent me the link for that. Pretty nifty feat of engineering - but too much complexity for my liking - may work fine but it seems...
After giving Giuliano M. several tips on his build, I'm leaning on converting mine to a similar belt lift/spring counter balance arrangement. It...
I'll be interested in how well this works for you if you beat me to my build. I may add a glass layer anyway for added flatness and reduced...
I had previously intended to have four head expansion to occur by using the opposing gantry plate. I now plan to mount both hot ends (e3D chimera...
I saw that. I just wasn't sure where the belts were going to be routed as the Z axis belts and constant force springs seemed to be in the way of...
