Would be superhard to do on a smoothie ...

I am at a point to where I can upgrade to the newest release of this, just to double check... all I need to do is drag the binary file into the main directory and reboot? or because its an upgrade do i need to put it in the firmware folder?

Thanks

I wish i could print in bubble gum..

I have not used the lines to arc converter, if you find out that your file size is too big for axis try some other displays.

lol

I don't get why the Duet and BBP teams both decided to write their own firmware - both based on Marlin, of all things. It seems like a pointless duplication of effort. They both could've ported Smoothie to their hardware, added whatever modifications they needed (segmentless moves, nice web interfa...

looks like they are getting their acts together

I hope they keep it up

I actually gave up on Octoprint. I could not get my wifi dongle to work no matter what I tried even though it is on the RPi hardware list. I installed Repetier server, latest version after installing a base Raspian install. It works like a charm. Wifi works. I have printed successfully. Set up my m...

I tried your latest firmware.bin and when I do the probe test it seems to slam into the bed. It's like It's trying to move past the bed. I know the FSR's are working because they trigger with the regular Smoothie firmware. What should I look into? make sure the pin assignments didn't change between...

well, running these tests over the month of September.. i have consumed quite a bit of download data.

I'm not sure how many people are familiar with the SamKnows project to gather "real" information from ISP's. Basically a few years back, people would sign up for their area and ISP. If selected they would send a pre-configuerd router that tests your ISP and compares against advertised ser...

The end stop adjusters are very cool.

yea it was pretty ambitious to try those threaded style end stops... that being said they did not work as well as i hoped so i went with a lever/screw combo

Welp, i went ahead and changed internet service providers a few months back. Went with a new to the area company "Vivint", they were supposed to be the fastest offered and they probably still are. But speed is not everything, i noticed soon after changing over that i would have horrible co...

making progress... this thing is going together very easily.

at least the clerk issued the license... and finally quit.

I'm trying to get some more information put together while I evaluate the BeagleBone solution. Can you post: - What OS you're using, how you downloaded it, and how you flashed it - How you installed MachineKit - What display you're using, where you got it, and what you had to do to set it up - Wher...

i only use rpi to send gcode to my board, there is no specific configuration except kbaud. everything else is configured inside the slicer. remember when you want to use the rpi camera you need to run raspi-config and enable it.

When setting the baudrate to 250000 my rostock max v2just starts turning on and off again. but when I dont have it to 250000 I cant upload to my sd card and I cant edit target temperatures and everything I upload fails to upload This setting has worked great for me. I'm not using a powered hub betw...

my metal frame should be in my hands monday, i will set that up and test this out! thanks for your hard work!!

side note, ive been pushing gcode to my smoothie with octopi, now that it has a small easy screen to use with it, its possible to forever disable Ethernet and glcd.

I wish this was true.

Heh, I'm a fan of making tobacco illegal anyway, so I really shouldn't be in this conversation... :lol: The vaping morons drive me crazy too. I'm a fan of making everything legal....whats the point of proclaiming freedom if you cant be free? If you pay your bills and don't cause damages to anyone e...
