aluminum bed plate and 24v PSU

Are there any places that sell a premade aluminum plate for the rostock? Google has not been very helpful to find a source.

Also, is it possible to replace the PSU with a 24v one that will still fit inside the rostock?

What keeps causing me to calibrate?

It seems like every time i turn on the printer i have to recalibrate the towers. What is going on? Are my eeprom settings not getting saved??? This is getting really frustrating having spent 2 full days trying to calibrate the damn towers.

Re: z index way off when calibrating now

I wish i knew what the hell was causing my problem eariler tho :(

For some reason the head was printing way off the bed and all i did was shut it off last night after it was printing fine. So then i figure i will try to re...

Re: windows will not install rambo usb drivers

well well, it seems the USB cord shipped with my rostock was defective. I just used the shorter USB cable that came with my arudino and had no issues installing the driver. Windows actually took care of everything on its own (I think because i installed Matter Control). Hope this helps anyone with t...
