For the V4 is it 2.5mm for the bearing shaft screw if that is what you are asking.

I would have thought so. I need to go back and see exactly what I'm doing. could be pilot error.

Ok Guys,
The extruder pinch-wheel shaft has an allen socket with what looks like a tiny torx socket at the bottom. Now that I know I don't have a hex allen wrench in every possible size, what is it?

good answer airscapes, thanks right now I'm wrestling with Configuration.h files for Marlin 1.1.x (1.1.19) which are reported to run on M2 but have different binary settings (true,false) in the ENDSTOP_INVERTING section. I think I'll go with settings in firmware which came with my M2E except for the...

Interesting airscapes. I still want to know how you assured yourself that your bed is flat to a couple of tenths (imperial)? I ask because I'm not sure mine is, but I haven't gotten to checking it out yet.

At the level of precision we're discussing here, there is a risk of pig perfuming.

PS It looks like the Marlin 1.1.9 code compiles with Arduino IDE 1.8.9

Good.

Hi Makeal, Mapping current firmware values to 1.1.9 sounds a bit treacherous. I had to change some things in Marlin when I added a heated bed to my TinyBoy so I have been in there, but it did take time. I'd also added an LCD to it which on that machine also required a few code changes. also changed ...

This is what I did on my M2. It has the advantage of being very simple and quickly revealing if there is a problem in the printing. The case is mine too. it was designed before I got the M2 and had to be broken down into parts which could be printed on my TinyBoy Fabrikator. I have a half dozen Rasp...

thanks,
i think I'm going to make your design and work it out myself. I'll let you know how it works out.

best regards,

One of Sthone's files for his improved cooling extruder head (my terms, not his) refers to BlTouch. Sthone, do you use it?

I liked his blower cooling setup.
