Re: High strength filament recommendations?
I've had really good luck printing high strength parts out of Atomic's Carbon Fiber PETG (https://www.seemecnc.com/products/1-75mm-carbon-fiber-atomic-filament-petg-1kg-spool). Lots easier to print than nylon, great layer adhesion, and insane strength. Just make sure you get your temp up to 250 to p...

Re: H2 Delta hacker series: can i upgrade to a hot bed, and if so how?
Which power supply you use doesn't matter, but remember that you'll be pulling close to 20 amps through it, so it'll need to be a beefy one. All of them should have their voltage and amperage ratings written on them. You're looking for 12-14V and at least 19 amps to run everything without issues. Th...

Re: E3D Hot End + Accelerometer Board
The only way to adjust the wattage is to turn up the voltage on the power supply. When you're heating it's already driving the hot end as hard as it can. If you end up doing this, you should be OK to go to about 14 volts.

Re: E3D Hot End + Accelerometer Board
Then it sounds like you've got a heater cartridge that's bad. Check it's resistance. It's probably too high, and ohms law plays no favorites.

Re: 0.92 Firmware Upgrade for HE280...Any tips?
Regarding it coming down high on the plate, you probably need to adjust your Z probe height in the EEProm. If the print head is too high, you want to increase the value in the EEProm, then run the calibration again. If it's sitting 0.3mm too high when it's printing, add 0.3 to the value, re-probe, a...

Re: E3D Hot End + Accelerometer Board
At a guess, it's because the firmware assumes you have the 40W heater cartridge from the HE280, and the E3D comes with a 30W cartridge. Try PID tuning your hot end and see if that fixes you problem.

Re: Orion will not home
The easy way to fix the problem (assuming you've got the newer hot end with the probe) is to connect with MatterControl (or whatever) and open a terminal. Run M502, M500, G29. This will reset the EEProm to stock values, Save, then calibrate to set your endstops, z height, and horizontal radius.

Re: Bed calibration Max V3
Check your bed height the entire way around the bed. It should feel uniform. If you've got some areas that are higher than others, you probably have some of your bed supports flipped up-side-down. If you can see any marks from the ejector pins on the bed supports looking down from the top, those are...

Re: MAX V3 stock power supply volatage increase
The heatsink fan gets a constant current, it's not under pwm control. Putting a resistor inline would be the easiest way to quiet it down. I've regularly run my rostock power supply at 14V with no problem.

Re: Firmware 20170201 not valid for my MAX v2
It's possible to use a FSR, but you're gonna have to hack into the code to make it work as the current version of the firmware has been customized to run the HE280. If you want to do it, you'll want to comment out anywhere that's looking for the the accellerometer.

Re: Rostock Max v3 initial startup Thermistor problems?
1. Double check the wiring in your whip connector and on the connectors going into the rambo. Specifically, check the order of the green and white wires. If the thermister wires are backwards, it's going to cause problems. Also, is the heatsink fan coming on when you turn on the machine? When it's p...

Do you have a barrel fan blocker installed? If not, you can print one (http://repables.com/r/828/) or buy one (https://www.seemecnc.com/products/barrel-fan-blocker) and you've got good odds that it'll solve your problem.
Also, what gcode are you sending to do your PID tune?

You can swap the pins for E0 and E1 in pins.h, then plug in to E1 if you want to test that. The rambo will still call it E0

Re: Problems with PVA and dual extrusion
Take a close look at your second extruder. Make sure it is gripping the material well and doesn't have bits of it stuck in the gear teeth. If that still looks fine, try heating up the hot end and doing a few tool changes... does it have the same problem?

If you're willing to build the printer, the H2 is the same price and a much more capable printer. I'd recommend it way more than an Eris.
