Welcome to the SeeMeCNC Community

Hi 626pilot, thanks for that configuration it makes a lot of sense. :) I'll be using it with your branch of smoothie once I get a chance to install the new board, I'm just reading through the thread front to back to make sure I haven't missed anything. There's a lot of work in what you have done wit...

Nice build and nice first print too!! Congratulations!!

Hi Gestalt, Thanks mate that's exactly the info I was hoping to get! I haven't got a cyclops yet I will just be playing around with the upsilon type widgets on my e3d v6 to start with and upgrade once I feel comfortable with the system but you hit the nail on the head. So that the slicer doesn't swi...

I think the cheapest way to get ok quality filament would be as others have mentioned by buying a filastruder or filabot or whatever and making it yourself, I think you can get it as cheap as $5 a kilo then for decent plastic. I have pondered this myself but to be honest I would rather just pay dood...

Does anyone know how I would set up smoothie for dual extruders on a single hotend? Do I just not activate hotend 2 temp control module in the config or do I enable it and designate the same pins defined as the first one? Any advice would be great...

Shit that's scary mate and unfortunately I know exactly how you feel. Glad you're ok though!!! Take it easy and hopefully your feeling much better now!!!

Wow 626 and the others you are doing some awesome work!! Finally read the entire thread and thought I would just add that I too am having the same issues and have rebuilt, re-squared, rechecked, replaced arms on this machine so many times its not funny so it looks like I will get a smoothieboard so ...

Ok if you select the file it should automatically set the temp and start heating for you and then it will start printing once it has got to the right temp. What slicer are you using, sometimes depending on slicer for some reason it doesnt set the temps they just remain zero so you have to have your ...

Hi Tinyhead, no problem and please let us know how you go. :) @ Mac... I had it set to only 30 seconds luckily lol but then I gave it another 30 and nearly lost the lot :) short and sweet does the trick well. Great idea though Generic its all homogeneous now although quite thick! I now know why your...

Hey Generic, thanks for reporting back, that's great to hear! :) I will give the microwave a go now and see if it helps to dissolve the glue a bit more as mine still has a few chunks... I am wondering if you put it on a bit thinner if it would pull off any glue at all? Mine very rarely takes any glu...

Hi, Does it switch off completely ie no power at all or is it still powered on but just stops moving? Does it reset itself when it stops and is it running tethered to the computer or from SD card? If it stays on after it stops is the hotend fan still running and does it keep the bed and hotend heate...

Hi, OK i'll try answer the questions as best I can.. Firstly @ Jfettig, I haven't printed out as far as the edge of the bed yet using this method but I cant see why it wouldn't work... I will try in the next few days and do the calibration circle and see how it goes. It is not so super duper that it...

Uneven or rough bottom surfaces on your parts, parts that don't stay stuck or release the way you like or messy first layers... if like me this frustrates the hell out of you then read on... :) Last week I decided to try a few things to get the surface finish on the bottom of my parts smooth and hig...

Looks great, will be interesting to see how you go with the enclosure. The cheapskate clips are a cool idea, I can't see though, do they replace the original clips or just sit over the top of them to stop snagging?

I like how you guys keep pushing things in different directions, very interesting...

Hey thats pretty cool, nice idea!

I don't know if this helps but from what I can work out each version of the Rambo is different. For example I have version 1.3L and I already have an Analog-EXT header on the board from the factory. You can see in the pictures below how I have +5v to pin1, ground to pin2 and Signal to pin7 PK0. Afte...

I can test this if you like, I'm running SeeMeCNC repetier 0.91 and have spare endstops, wire etc, just let me know if you want me to do it.

That is cool, ill give that a go today lol, sure beats the series of beeps at the end lol Now there just needs to be a feature in repetier-host to convert mp3's to G-Code.

Thanks Eaglezsoar! I might repost the PSU stuff in the heated bed thread or somewhere else as well and do a few more time trials with different configurations.

Ok well I just made THE BEST mod yet to the rostock today and I'm verry happy with the results so I thought I would share the happiness around. :) It all started last night when the power just cut out to the machine while I was trying to do a print with a 105C bed and a 255C nozzle temp, I decided t...

Hi Earthbound, Thanks and sure no worries...I printed it in three pieces just so I didn't have to do any super long prints till I get it dialed in so its two of the arm pieces and the little nose piece on the end, all printed fine with no support. :) Spool Holder Cap.STL Spool Holder.STL Just made a...

Thanks!! Just fit a set of the v27 tensioners today and they're working great. Might change the design up a bit to have the thumb screws the other way up so I can use allen head bolts and tighten them up properly with the top plate off. Will post back once I play around in solidworks a bit.

I am facing the same issue but it looks like it's slic3r and repetier not talking properly, apparently it works if you open slic3r separately and just slice in that not via repetier... I'll try it later and let you know if it works... Here's the GitHub link to the issue: https://github.com/repetier/...

Thanks Isaac, my success is largely due to you so dont be embarrassed just enjoy knowing you have one very happy customer over here. :D Thought that seeing as I had already half built the machine by the time I started posting that I would throw up a few pics of the ongoing modifications and minor tw...
