3D Printing Forum

In order to compile, all the files will be used in its entirety or partially as required by the compiler. I use Visual Studio as the text editor to make the changes and do the compiling. You 'can' use a plain text editor such as notepad++, but still have to have a compiler to finish the project. The...

as your using a 'splitter' board for powering both Z steppers, you most likely need to increase the current the board is providing. You are running the motors in parallel so the drive current required is now twice what the single stepper was.

Glad to see you were able to make the parts, now you can start making more pieces parts:})

This might help you maybe??

Or am I missing something? Good luck

I use 3B+ boards on my printers and have found that if I move to a designated location when using octolapse, that I get increased stringing. I print in petg and it is enough of a problem as it is. So when using octolapse, I just do the snap at layer change with no move. It helps.

Yeh, never figured that Octoprint would be the cause as it was supposedly only reading and spitting out the gcode AND I had the filament senor turned off.

After more extensive testing and debugging, it ended up being a borked plugin! I had installed the "Enclosure" plugin several years ago to handle filament runout sensing, but had disabled it as it gave to many false trips. Some how it got messed up and caused the problems. Basically cleane...

OK, have a new one for me. Printer is an Ender 5 Main board is Ender5-BigTreeTech-SKR-Mini-E3-1.2 Firmware -Marlin-bugfix-2.0. installed 9/2022 Also use Octoprint The printer has been working perfectly until today when I was making a print. I noticed on the webcam that it appeared I had run out of f...

I am assuming that your talking about these files in Marlin? If so, when compiled the system will use both of them regardless of what changes you may make. Having said that, there are a ton of options in each of these files that can be changed to suit your needs/desires. You might peruse YouTube to ...

The shell command in fusion 360 removes all material from the inside and leaves a wall of the thickness you desire. i say apply to the back face as it will remove that face to shell out the rest of the body. You can then slice with supports of your choice. If you slice with it as is, you can set you...

I have avoided answering this one in your other thread because you are asking for an oxymoron! Remove material, but not provide support! If you remove material, it won't be supported and you state you don't want to print support. Can't have it both ways. Now having said that, you might try the shell...

compile or put the new firmware and a different sd card. Put the "original" one up in a safe place. Insert the new card with the new software on it and if you don't like it, just insert the "original" sd card.

Glad we were able to help:})

I downloaded your latest file and first looked at it in a stl viewer and then confirmed it in Cura.
I first noticed defects and it looks even worse in Cura!

Viewing the stl, it still shows that it is not watertight
