got the kit and...

Post by imsmooth » Thu Jun 05, 2014 3:22 am

I just finished the build.
First power up and everything seems to be working first time. Just went as far as testing the jog controls and z-home. Will do more testing later.

Oh, I will.
I have the simplify software on my imac and a portable laptop. I want to start working with ABS.

I am sure the smell will have me move the printer into my basement, but I'd like to get comfortable with everything first.

I suggest getting everything dialed in with PLA to begin with, it is much more forgiving.
