Welcome to the SeeMeCNC Community

One watchout - I think 75C is above the max operating environment temperature for the steppers we're using. I'm kicking around the heated chamber idea in my head a little, and I'm considering moving the extruder above the top plate to be safe. Good point, I just accuired an incubator PID controler ...

ahh bummer..

looks about perfect !

Just a note on optimal temperature for heated build chambers. I have been using one of the high end machines at work for years and it keeps the build volume at 75 deg C for ABS. The build platforms are plastic so they quickly heat up to the temperature of the build chamber and fans move the air aro...

I'd love to have a high-end quality engineered and manufactured kit for this option.

Somehow it seems you've already figured me out .. Amazing

The F-15E isn't only FBW. The little grey box under the stick has a load cell in it that feeds the CAS, but if you turn the CAS switches off, you'll be mechanical-only. (Imagine driving a Cadillac with four flat tires and you'll get an idea of the no-CAS performance. :D ) On the other side of the c...

I would like to first the request to not pollute this fine forum with that crap. It's quite refreshing to be able to navigate to a forum on my phone's browser without being inundated with invitations to use Tapatalk. Invitations that neglect to mention all its buggy hell of rubbishness. Forum. Brow...

Great idea !

Just wanted to throw out a trick i've used in the past to attenuate vibrations in a hollow high rpm rc helicopter tail rotor drive shaft. I would fill the tube about 1/3 to 1/2 with a high viscosity silicon fluid. "Fluidamper" this helped tremendously by being very dynamic. Basically the r...

It's interesting to think about. and I suppose would only be useful for wide and tall structures that get farther away from the heat on the bed. currently the Layer fans cool the ABS too much, but if that fan was able to provide a constant flow of hot air at low pressure at the fresh layers I wonder...

I've been reading a lot about Effector fans lately. ( Researching before I purchase the Rostock Max) I understand about the "Peek Fan " for Hotends with Peek material I understand PLA likes to have a layer fan and ABS does not. I understand ABS likes to have a heated bed to keep the part w...

Right on Chris ! congrats on owning a delta printer.

Hello, I'm still new here, getting ready to purchase a R-Max in 2 weeks. I use an app on my smart phone to make reading forums on the mobile a lot easier. it's called Tapatalk, I hear it's easy to setup your forum to be compatible with it. it could be cool to use while we are "out in the shop&q...

welcome aboard .... we are always happy to get new members with new idea ..... i will happy to help as well where i can :) Good luck, and i'll try to work on my son ( he is only 1.5 years old ) to convince my wife that she need something that i need :) i like you way already Thank you :-) so far I ...

SuperDave, welcome! Looks like some pretty fun toys you got there already! You'll have a great time with the Rostock MAX kit, that's for sure. Don't forget, looking at your location, we go to MakerFaire in San Mateo in May, look up makerfaire.com for the dates. Stop over if you can and see us! Hi !...

Right on ! and thank you for the link. I DL'ed it and will study it Hello David and welcome to the forum! From reading about your interests and background you are the perfect candidate for Rostock Max. One of the first things you should do is to download the Assembly manual for the Rostock Max and r...

I'm set my sights on the Rostock Max because: Kit form price allows me entry into this field for a home printer. Design ( what can I say ? the Delta format is so darn SCI-FI looking !! I love it.) Potential Resolution 20-50 micron possibility sounds amazing ( the journey to try and achieve that res ...

Hey everyone, My name is David Cook, and I just recently found out about "Delta" format 3D printers. ever since I found out about 2 weeks ago they have been stuck in my head. It's all I can think about lately. I'm a mechanical designer, I run DC-Concepts dot com for my hobby. I'm into Mult...
