Re: Forum Maintenance 12/23/2018

I can't get search to work in the forums since the upgrade. I'm not sure if it's me or the site.

Re: how do I run the HE280 auto calibration with octopi?

I'm not an expert...yet :-) but, I use the terminal in Octopi and run 'G29' and I also use the OctoPrint Delta Calibration Plugin from here. http://forum.seemecnc.com/viewtopic.php ... topi+delta

Re: Squishy handle.???

I kind of figured it was printing too fast. I just didn't know how to slow it down enough. I'm using Simplify3d, so I can use its multiple process wizard to change the settings for just that part of the print. I think I know what needs to be done, I just need to do it now. :-)

I ended up printing 3 copies of the handle and putting an old computer fan on the print bed aimed at the parts to add extra cooling. The parts came out much better. I still have to figure out the right solution, but, at least I got the parts I needed done.

Meltink3d PLA/PHA, and yes, I'm using fans. Start off at 0%, go to 50% at layer 2, and 100% at layer 5.

Squishy handle.???

Can anybody give me any hints as to how to correct this or at least what to call it, so I can narrow down my searches? I've tried slow down the print speed, adjusting the temperatures, adjusting the infill from 0% all the way to 100%, and everything else I could think of. 1018171055a.jpg 1018171055....

Nozzles

Does anyone know of a third party source for nozzles for the HE280 hotend? I'm looking for something hardened to work with carbon fiber filament. I've been trying to get the stainless steel nozzles from SeeMeCNC but they have been out of stock in the .4mm and .5mm sizes for months and I can't get an...

I read this post on Mhackney's web site and it helped me a great deal with retraction settings.

How is this coming along for you guys? I'm just getting ready to start printing the parts for my Max v3. @TheDon - What printer did you use to print the parts? Which parts did you end up having to scale up to to make it fit right, and what was the final scaling value. Anything thing else I should be...

Re: Rostock Max v3 EZRStruder Filament Sensor for Octoprint

Hi
I was wondering if anyone ever made the changes to the 'EZRstruder optical filament sensor' to allow it to work with the current EZRstruder.

Kevin - fairly new to this whole 3d printer stuff :D
