Welcome to the SeeMeCNC Community

Bracket I designed to hold the Fog Buster cutting fluid mister on my Bridgeport CNC mill. Clamps onto the quill so it follows tool up & down so mist stays right on tool. It was mounted on head so it did not move with tool. Drawn in Fusion 360. .stl & .stp files on repables.com http://repable...

Oh, I'm not sure about that. But I think the v2 & v3 bases are different heights.

No, they are a bit different. But may not make a difference to how your FSR plate mounts.
Of course the files are on github.

Have you measured the steel balls? Are they truly spherical and all the same size? All of the 4 sets of steel ball-studs I got in where somewhat egg shaped and varied in size more than I would like. So far I have found the white molded plastic barbells made by seemecnc have been better and more cons...

So your deviation has approximately doubled with your newest printed parts setup?
Or was that a mis-placed decimal point?

Some people have trouble with the whip plug un-plugging itself when printing. One option is to print a clip to retain it like one of these http://repables.com/r/808/ http://repables.com/r/811/ I don't care for the way that looks and it still does not seem very secure. I was really excited to find a ...

@DC42 could a function be added to the firmware to allow individual movement of each tower? Then we could fasten a dial indicator to the carriage and command it to move say 25mm then measure the actual movement to determine your actual steps per mm. Likewise, measuring each tower individually could...

Bracket I designed to use a common end stop switch for probing. Mounts to the MAX Metal Platform.

The calibration built into the dc42 firmware on the Duet board works wonderfully!


Fusion 360 and .step files also, so you can modify for other platforms.

This is the difference between the six factor and seven factor calibration with dc42's code. The six factor cal doesn't touch the arm length. (My OctoPrint plugin only uses the six factor, as do my Duet-equipped printers.) g. Okay, so is there a way to use the other method without octoprint? Is the...

I use them also. They are great.
Use small tip on soldering iron, just enough heat to melt plastic, any extra heat does not work as nice.

Wizard makes nice flat 1st layer within .1 mm
BUT part size is off...
275 mm model prints at 270 mm
Fine for vases, frogs, Yoda heads, etc. not acceptable for real functional parts that fit properly.
Wizzer changed arm length from actual 300 to 310


Please make an option to not change arm length.

Thanks for all your work on this Michael.

Thank you for the link.

yes, you can still print ABS, etc. just fine with this configuration.

I would try 15mm/s first.

a link directly to the Dev fw would be appreciated.

Assemble per official guide here... https://www.distechautomation.com/pages/user-guide EXCEPT put only one nut below heater block, one nut above heater block, and one nut against cooling fins with 2mm gap between the upper two nuts. I have much better results printing PLA, no jams! Others have found...

Looks good.
What size are mounting holes? 4.2 mm dia. would be good in my opinion. (to fit onto stand off screw)
Also, the older SeeMeCNC aluminum stand offs where .375" dia., so you would want to make sure nothing shorts out with those.

?really?
aren't we a little grumpy today? ...is geneb rubbing off on you?

@Michael, have you tried moving the probe points in 15 mm or so ( I used 127 MM radius vs. OEM 142.68), to see if probing is more reliable? I am wondering if probing at the extreme travel very close to tower is any of the issue. Also try probing opposite of towers and see if reliability changes. You...

So, I have been playing around with SeeMeCNC's probe board, changing location of probe for horizontal radius. By default the v3 probes center and near Z tower to calculate HR I was very curious to see if value changes with location. Yes, not surprisingly it does. To change location you simply change...

Do share.
Don't feel bad, we all make mistakes and learn from each other by sharing.

Position the accelerometer chip near the mounting hole.

Thanks Eric, yes the wires can be removed safely from the connector so the connector can be reused. I've done it a few dozen times already. RE Shoe... I agree but the SOLE reason for doing this is for folks who have a V3 and already have the HE280. A dedicated probe board would be the next step. Th...
