The E3D Hemera is getting phased out. What modes are required to use the lighter/smaller Hemera XS? Any thoughts on the BIQU H2 V2S Revo as a...
I've been having issues with the extruder...swapped out a couple of drive units after they failed...upsized the motor to limit stalling (nozzle...
I finally got mine up and running a few weeks ago. I won't admit how much time I spent trying to get the Z direction correct....the bed kept...
I'm finishing up the mechanical assembly and starting on the electronics. I went with the BTT Octopus V1.1 board...plenty of flexibility if I go...
I think you would have to start with your concrete mix to come up with something that is fluid enough to pump but stiff enough to maintain a shape...
Tim, Keep in mind that the C beam machines (and other hobby class machines) typically use 1-hp range routers or spindles. The extra weight of...
Most parts ordered except for electronics and bed. Should be building in a week or so....most of the printed parts were done a year ago. The...
The machine limits are set at 2000 mm/min and I'll use a 2-flute spiral bit at about 12,000 rpm with a 6-7 mm depth of cut in 1/2" or 3/4"...
Generally speaking, a larger cutting bit requires a higher feed rate than a smaller bit (chips got to fly to keep the bit cool) and the...
I would go nuts if I couldn't run a 15 minute task on my CNC router while my 3d printer is churning away on on a 2 to 10 hour print. A $200 Ender...
Great looking enclosure.
Got it. Not easy (for me) but can be done... Thanks guys! Don
I picked up a 3D printer this week and was thinking that it would be neat to print inlay pieces to match up an inlay cut in wood with V-carve....
After reading you book on DIY 3D printer design I am having a hard time not pulling the trigger to start this build. I just have to get around the...
Hardcopy ordered. Been thinking about a 3D printer and this should save me many hours and 10x the cost in "spare" parts.
Feeling lost is perfectly normal ;) Yesterday my machine wouldn't home....or move at all. I clicked the home button 2 or 3 times, restarted...
Would be nice if these kits (or similar) were available through the OB store in the US.
After digging around a bit I found the X3D Core XY machine which looks a lot like what I had in mind. Build a baltic birch plywood frame/cabinet...
I'm thinking about building a 3D printer and want to build parts of it using my C-beam CNC router (similar to Lead 1010) to save a little $ and...
New to carving but it seems that keeping a scrap piece of the original stock as a zero reference would be simple enough if you can remember to do it.
