sthone: That is a really cool rotating rack. What are you using for a motor?

This is a common problem with this type of printing. I have attached a paper on the subject. You will have to change the extension back to pdf. I just changed the extension to zip so I could upload it. It is not actually compressed. From the paper, the best product seems to be BJB TC-1614. It does r...

I have had good luck reducing warping by reducing the cooling fan speed. With ABS, which is all I print with anymore, I only use the fan if the area being printed doesn't have time to cool i.e. small cross sections.

Hope this helps,

Hi all, I couldn't seem to find the pitch of the z-stop screw anywhere, so I pulled out the bolt and measured it. Here is a little table I made. Hopefully it will help somebody else. I have already used it a couple of times. Z-stop bolt 4mm x 0.7mm 0.7 mm/turn rotation.....inches 1 turn........0.028...

Perfect. Thank you guys. I just wanted to see what was in the EEPROM before I made the changes to the accelerations. The M503 command gave me what I needed, and unchecking verbose gave me time to read it.

Your assistance is greatly appreciated.

Have a great day,
Jim

Hi all, I was trying to retrieve the acceleration values from my Makergear M2. The makergear.wikidot.com page states: "M204" will read the current value. When I send "M204" (without the quotes) with the Simplify3D Send button at the bottom of the Communication tab of the Machine Control Panel, all I...

Thanks for your help Tim. It turns out it was operator error. We moved recently and I had to reconnect the power supply to the connector. I put the wires in backward. After reversing the wires, all is working.

Thanks for your help,
Jim

Thanks for the quick response. I tried swapping the 2 connectors on the Rambo, but when I try to change the temp for tool T1 in Simplify3d, I get M104 Invalid Extruder. Is there an easy workaround for this, or does it require flashing the controller? I could always try the same thing with tool T0. I...

Hi all, I am having an issue with my bed heater power supply. It is the Dell 19V supply. The light comes on when it is unplugged from the Rambo, but as soon as I plug it in the light goes out. Is anybody familiar with this problem? Could there be a bad component on the Rambo? Thanks in advance, Jim
