Welcome to the SeeMeCNC Community

so, back on topic. Any ideas? The Lcd is reading def whenever I plug the lead for the thermistor in, besides that the fan always starts running when I plug it in.

ok, So I pretty much killed my old hotend. (thermistor) So I ordered a e3d v6 hotend and assembled it and made my own makeshift mount and such today. I soldered all the wires including the thermistors to the wires that were previously there for the old hotend. My question was, when I turned on the p...

it doesnt have the blue dot but I am still having this problem, I think It may be the hotend but Im not sure. Do you think I should just replace the hot end? ( I am printing something for a job and I dont really feel like waiting till next monday to get a tiny little piece of brass. If the hotend is...

I am having this exact problem and have tried all of these. but its still doing the same thing, I normally print with pla but did a little abs then switched back to pla, A few prints later I had this problem start. I think some ABS is stuck in the hotend or something. How can I fix this?

hey guys I havent been able to complete a print correctly, the bowden pushes it then slips back. Its like is blocked, but i cant seem to clean it out. ive already cleaned the tube and cleaned out the actual bowden.I get some stuff comeing out of the extruder but just like a sliver, so all the prints...

I live in ohio and Although I dont think I could.

well if you put it vertical I think it is just a little too large.

Hey Guys I am thinking about doing my first very long and large print. It would take over 24 hours and require at least $8 for part of it. I was looking at it however before I got to printing and wasnt sure about the size. Is this too big to print off on a orion?

Ive been on the site for over 2 weeks and No questions or anything.

What is strongest 645, bridge, or t-glase?

I am looking for a strong filament That can withstand quite a lot of of force and It also Must be pretty easy to print with like PLA. It would also be nice if it could be in color. I have been looking at the T-Glase and the Taulman 645 filament. What of these would best fit my needs? I am printing o...

how did you get polyflex so early? the kickstarted is still going on.

hmm... Could you find us a name?

Also has anyone tried to use some sort of filament extruder and used TPE pellets?

Hey Guys I heard about the flexible rubber like filament and was so excited that I wanted to buy it right away untill I saw that it isnt bowden extruder compatible. I guess this makes sense but would anyone have any ideas on how I Could modify my orion to run using a normal extruder or somthing else...

thanks someone finally responded. I will check it out. thanks for the help

Can I get some help? I am using a mac and I cant seem to open Repetier.Ino Also When I try to open EEPROM settings All I get is a blank thing

Hey I was wondering If seemecnc or anyone else was going to create a dual extruder upgrade for the orion like some other printers do nowadays. I thought it might be pretty nice to be able to do two colors at once. If there already is one then please direct me to it as I may be interested in one.

Well I have found the ultimate solution! yes! And now it works. I put the SD card into my gopro then plugged that into the computer no more problems now. Thanks!

hey guys I am using a Orion and all of the sudden Whenever I print something I get a few layers in or many times less and the print just stops and the printer wont respond to repetier host unless I restart it. Someone please help. I think this may be because I now use slic3r 9.9 but even when I use ...

Yeah I am expirencing the same problem even when I use cura for gcode. what should I do?

Ok So I am very happy with my orion. I love the quality and fast speed. But When I print using repetier host everything is normal until the printing starts. The 3d view only shows what is happening in the top right quarter of the build area. Mid way through a print I can see the 3d view except some ...

got my printer and have done a few prints. I had a perfect 1st print. I have found that prints done by the SD card come out much better than with computer and also I am using PLA. Why is the fan in such a odd position? Also What is fan.gcode used for? I printed it and have no idea.

@printer999 The ORION is setup for about 6" Dia build area. If anyone has noticed, the ORION Heated Bed has a usable diameter (marked by the white circle) of about 7-3/4" (196mm Dia). It's possible to reach outside of the 6" Dia circle where the platform does not interfere with the t...

How hard would It be to increase the build area to about 8 in diameter. Just asking


EDIT: ok a few minutes later I just bought my orion and cant wait For it to arrive.
