Unique situation available...
It's no mystery I have a handful of machines, but what may not be apparent is they are all different vintages.
I have a V3a 19/12v system with a 1.1 RAMBo (1/16th microstepping)
I have a V3b 24v system with 1.3 RAMBo (1/16th microstepping)
I have a 24v system with an E3D v6 (I don't *want* to run anything but Nylon through it but I will for science if that's what's requested)
I have 24v / v4 single kits incoming for both. My unique situation is that I can run the same print on the same machine before/after the upgrade, as well as compare side-to-side.
I don't have a ton of downtime with my machines, so the prints would need to be quick but impactful. Does anybody have suggestions?

Re: Unique situation available...
uhhhh what are you asking? are you saying you want to be able to put a single gcode file in any of the printers and have them print the same?
Re: Unique situation available...
Sorry, I'm asking if anybody has suggestions for prints they'd like to see before/after on a V3a, V3b, V4, or E3Dv6.

Boring I know but I'd like to see the 3dBenchy done on each one. All things being kept equal apart from the nozzle.
Re: Unique situation available...
3dBenchy is reasonable. I'll use the same GCode between all the machines on the cleanest nozzles I can.Bratag wrote:Boring I know but I'd like to see the 3dBenchy done on each one. All things being kept equal apart from the nozzle.

Re: Unique situation available...
I like this idea ! I expect to see little difference between them. Will be interesting to see though.

Hey, insta! Is the MAKE Magazine torture test object from a couple years ago (the box, arch, nine cylinders, hex holes, http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:33902 ) too much to ask for?
Re: Unique situation available...
Well here's one round, this isn't the benchmarks we asked for (boo insta boo), but it is the exact same GCode of a customer's part. He's fine with me sharing pictures, but not really talking about it. Filament is eSUN black PLA. Guess which one is the v4! The other is a V3b for comparison.

Re: Unique situation available...
Left -V3b. Right-V4. What'd I win???
Re: Unique situation available...
definitely looks like the temps are different from one to the other. right is printing a little hotter.
