Easy enough to design some spacers! And... done (added 21mm to the 1/4" spacer design, see attached). 60mm M5 can be a bit tricky to source....
@Elmo Clarity @AK Eric since the board has extra driver spots, would it be possible to simply change out the normal Z single stepper command...
Nice blog! Has better pics than my build doc :) Sorry about the 55mm Z axis bolts mishap, I think may be part to blame there... 60mm bolts...
Someone commented earlier on this forum that the E3D lite is good (I have two of the regular), so if you only print PLA and ABS then go with the...
I'd say spacers yes... shims no. You'd just need to check the wheel contact tightness every now and then and tighten if necessary. A good idea...
You require one 1mm spacer/shimm per mini V-wheel (20) to fit between the bearings... very important. Dimensions are shown in a drawing in the...
Ah, forgot about this issue. I'll update this section of the BOM tonight. @trublu832 updated, if the 1/4" spacer you get are actually to spec...
@trublu832 don't abandon your idea too easily (I'd like to see it happen). I am having no issues with my Z axis on a 8x12" bed and your idea will...
It is desirable to keep the structural forces on a system in one direction if possible. The reason is that this helps avoid...
I like it! Would be very helpful for a 10x10 or 12x12 (couldn't hurt for a 8x12 either). I would still not perfectly center it though as I think...
BOM should be up to date. The only change is if you are going with the original or the modified Z guide brackets. Original uses 40mm bolts and...
A solid sheet would be best, but perhaps the material thermally expands a lot so the idea is to have expansion lines (borosilicate glass expands...
Cube looks pretty good. For the XY, the only tuning adjustment you can really do is frame alignment and equalizing the belt tension. Try a large...
Yep, that's how I do it with the bolt.
Not sure about that command, but I know Marlin does support some kind of auto leveling. You can also configure a Z offset in Marlin and in...
I put some guidance in the assembly doc. Here is a good video too: Though I just do the four corners (then redo them once). After that, if the...
One alternative is to increase your Z drive mechanical advantage by using a lower pitch lead screw. Not sure what you are currently using, but I...
Once you are up and running, periodically check the derlin wheel contact tightness. I do this by sliding the assembly while resisting rotation...
Not other than cleaning out the slots so the right hotend can move up and down +/- 1mm. The XY spacing I defined in slic3r (can be done in Marlin...
No that was on me. Added the file, but didn't submit the build. Fixed.
