As per the above links, it may help as I have had the filament out and not in a dry box. I just find it funny that the protruding layer every so ofter is conveniently on the same layer that has the loop change - see previous simplify3d screencap. Could it be the coasting setting is not high enough?
I used the 25mm cube rather than the 20 as i feel like the small size was holding temp too long. See attached.
One thing I do think may be contributing (IDK it’s up to you) but my bed seems to ‘give’ ever so slightly on the x-axis when i push it from either side; a slight wobble. My bed belt is tight, hopefully not too tight, and I imagine that this x wobble might at least contribute something…
The zoomed pic, I enhanced the contrast just to give you a better look.
It’s probably not your imagination. You may be able to move the bearing holders further inboard or outboard to counter it, or replace the bearings with different bushings to counteract the movement and hardened rods, but the main fix for that particular issue is the openbuilds modifications.
I’m so lost and frustrated. I wanted this printer to work the way it was brought to print. I understood I was going to have to tinker and tune but not have to re-design the whole bloody thing.
Depends on what your goal is. If you want a stiffer X end, I would reccommend a different project personally, but I’m also probably biased about that particular one.
I was wondering if i could steal power from the TAZ somewhere so i don’t need another power plug etc. It’d mean I find a suitable power source I can tap into and then solder up a micro usb adapter cable for it.
I added a BeagleBone to my Taz. There is a 5V tap on the Rambo that provides plenty of current. I wired from it to a power plug that I mounted to the side, and plug the BeagleBone into that.
