3D Printing Forum

Check your wires to see if they are loose. I recently had a CR-10S do this and sure enough, the power leads were pretty wiggly I would also check where the leads plug into the control board. Many China printers use tinned leads into the connection block, which isn't good and can even fail. I removed...

Definitely read up on the sensor-less homing, I know it can be a little bit of trial and error dialing it in.

Ed has a really great YouTube channel about all the settings for these boards.

I'm good! I've been working on my old Lulzbot Taz 6 lately, a few mods to make it relevant since it was "new" in 2017

Yes, I know many a musician with oodles of guitars everywhere. AND...each one has a story. Makes me wonder what the piano guys do to cope with their hobby :) As to the 3D Touch - to me, its a matter of principal. I work in research and I know what goes into developing, fine tuning and marketing a pr...

Hi I've been lax checking my own forum lately Just looking at that photo, it could be a few things, db. If the first layers went down well, then failed a few up, it could be... 1) Filament tangle 2) Partial clog 3) Acts of God =) 220C for PLA is on the very high end. Having the fan off is pretty unu...

It looks like you are printing way too close to bed. If your firmware had it, I'd do the bed leveling wizard which moves the print head to each corner and you use a piece of paper to dial in the distance with each leveling knob. So that helps with physical leveling. After that, again, hopefully your...

Yeah I wonder if some of that is the board is getting over flowed with data in the USB uart too

I have no idea what that board is. Or how it relates to this topic

Figured I would share this!

Man, it's always the simplest, cheapest thing that causes the most mayhem

Is your z offset set correctly? I'm guessing either that or the filament isn't sticking to the bed. Make sure the bed is clean and free of finger prints

I don't gave one of those machines but let's start with this - same slicing settings on all?

Same spot each time? Re-slice?

My latest video!

Maybe start here?
