Using Marlin-RC8BF-HICi3 downloaded on this site, Experiencing a little trouble when I use AUTO_BED_LEVELING_LINEAR #define ABL_GRID_MAX_POINTS_X 5 #define ABL_GRID_MAX_POINTS_Y 6 #define LEFT_PROBE_BED_POSITION 10 #define RIGHT_PROBE_BED_POSITION 215 #define FRONT_PROBE_BED_POSITION 25 #define BACK...

Can you post pictures of your new mount in action? I downloaded the STL files and want to compare them with two I found on Thingiverse. I have install the New Bottom Bearing mount sensor, At this time I did not install with the X-Axis PLA Bearings. you may have noticed the sensor was moved to the s...

Can you post pictures of your new mount in action? I downloaded the STL files and want to compare them with two I found on Thingiverse. Have not mounted it yet, but I took a Picture Of what I have (New Mount is White). New TL-W3M Mount.jpg Compare.jpg New TL-W3M Left Mount.jpg You can see that the ...

I tried re-calibrating the e-steps. if anything, it made it worse. every few lines, the extruder would slowly wander off to either the X or Y endstop to peek over the edge of the print surface, then wander back again via a different route. Now it doesn't even seem to be trying to make normal angles...

The problem you have here is that you are designing for metal and printing in plastic. You need to design for the weaknesses of plastic, which is quite different. You will of course require considerably more plastic in order to get a stiff enough frame for a halfway decent print. It's an interestin...

Printed a 30x30mm Frame 3D Printer. For Proof of concept ("Can a 3D Printer Duplicate itself"). 6 X 11-3/4 inch print bed with 10-1/2 inch height. Using all thread for frame support, I have determined that although you can 3D print a Printer. without metal support you may never get a consi...

Would like to help did some tests and could only duplicate the same results when using a SN04-P. could not duplicate using a SN04-N I am using a SN04-N, However I tested a SN04-P and get a similar effect. When you move metal closer to the sensor light gets brighter but remains on. I my case I was ab...

I had a similar problem not long ago, I have a PTFE lining inside the throat.

The PTFE had became deformed causing the extrusion to vary erratically.

I replaced the throat and Nozzle the faulty prints went away.
You may want to check to see if the nozzle or throat are partially clogged.

Attached is a Print screen, Compiled with arduino-1.8.1. If locally defined but not used can I delete line Error.jpg Today I decided to completely Install Ubuntu 16.04 LTS, added Arduino-1.8.1. Copied my Marlin files unto Ubuntu and began to test could not duplicate problem. Loaded a unmodified Mar...

HEY GUYs! Just want to say thanks for being here for me. This build has been super fun up until the end and I'm almost printing but then hit a brick wall. Support from China is a nightmare with emails addressing one question per night with absolutely no resolution. I'm not the type of person to bas...

I Print PLA at 196-200 with a bed temp of 50-60, and start at a speed of 40-50. Once the base is complete changing the print speed to 70 - 86 for the rest of the print. I have printed some non-complicated shapes at 76 like the display case shown from beginning to end. however the complex shapes will...

I have had bearings problems from day one and the replacement bearings sent were no better. Printed thingiverse SC8_Bushing.stl bearings on the Y axis, just now starting work on the X Axis. Included attachments of modified mount for the Front facing Proximity sensors with adjustable height. Replacin...

Hello; I have a Hictop 3DP11 that has been thru a lot of changes in the 6 months of ownership. Saw some were having cooling problems, where the fan cools the hotend. I have modified a fan duct that you may find a workable solution it includes a duct to add cooling to the throat. I have added a half ...

I have successfully compiled shockofmighty version of Hic firmware Marlin-RC8BF-HICi3. Question to see if I understand the firmware. Line 268 and 310 of configuration_store.cpp, if I understand Microsoft's description c_assert is a test for assertions at compile time. So the errors during compiling ...
