A recent project of mine has been to install a heated bed on my #3Dprinter. It went quite smoothly and it improved quite a lot the warping when I print #PLA. I used a solid-state relay that is kept in the bottom of the printer, inside a small box that I designed and printed myself. The results are very good! The warping is clearly reduced. It is not shown, but the wiring also contains a protection hearth wire for the aluminum plate. #3Dprinting #DIY #RepRap

#3DPrinter Problems, #BambuLab

The print head of my #X1Carbon has recently started banging hard against the back wall (or rather, against the folded metal sheet at the back wall) 🤔.
Cleaning the carbon axles and recalibrating the printer didn't help in the search for the cause, nor did the internet.

Until the epiphany came 💡
I recently carried out a skew correction and, as recommended by Bambu Lab, inserted the measured values into the machine's G-code:
M1005 X150.05 Y149.65 ; Skew correction
M500 ; save the values permanently

The solution to the puzzle:

The X value is greater than the Y value for the entered skew correction., i.e. Y movements are corrected upwards - ergo the distance that the print head travels from the front left corner (reference) to the position near the filament cleaner (very close to the rear wall) increases -> leads to impacts against the wall / bended metal sheet because the print head wants to travel further than it can.
🤦‍♂️

Changing the G-Code to
M1005 X150 Y150
M500
and the "head bang" problem was gone. 🤷‍♂️
No problem if the Y-value for skew correction is bigger than the X-value, but do not do a skew correction if X > Y !!!

Maybe it will help someone.

One of the things I thought a #3dPrinter would be good for was printing a replacement piece for a marmot tent that I have. Turns out I also needed to figure out #3dModeling to generate the file.

About to make my fifth revision to the broken piece I have, but it seems like this might be the final revision for me, aka "Good Enough".

And now I"m considering setting up a #manyfold server as a model repository.

I've recently equipped myself with a #3dprinter
It is a lot of fun, and unlocks a ton of creative options. So far I've mostly printed other people projects (like this #pot), but I'm slowly starting to design my own projects.

Hey resin 3D printing enthusiasts, I have a question for you ! I am trying to print with a clear resin, but it looks like the resin polymerizes between some supports and some features of my models. Any advice or help ?

I am using a Phrozen Sonic Mighty 4k, with eSun PMMA-like resin from eSun. The XP finder and RP tester look good.

Thinking of things to make with the #RepRapMicron #3Dprinter. Probably need to do a gripper, so here's a prototype of my minimal take.

Heute mal so nebenbei das #OctoPi bei meinem #3dPrinter aktualisieren. Ist eh ganz easy und geht schnell.

1. Backup im OctoPi UI anstoßen
2. Raspberry Pi Imager vorbereiten
2. Backup downloaden
3. 3D-Printer ausschalten
4. SD-Karte aus Pi in Laptop stecken
5. Raspberry Pi Image Schreiben starten
6. ⏳
7. 🤔
8. bemerken, dass der Backup-Download durch das Ausschalten des 3D-Printers unterbrochen wurde (Raspi wird vom Printer mit Strom versorgt) und das Backup-Fragment leider keine brauch-/rettbaren Daten enthält

Naja.... 😑
