Re: Nozzle Options

I got a couple of those tungsten nozzles on the way. They are backordered right now but I can't wait to see how they perform considering they beat brasses specs in almost every way. Of course the proof will be if they actually live up to those claims.

Re: Gestalt73's Rostock Max

Any update? Have you thought about doing the EZR struder upgrade? I'm curious how the .9 degree steppers work out.

Re: Anyone out in SoCal?

Thanks Ramai! I appreciate the willingness to help. I did link up with gestalt73 from the forum. Turns out he prints a lot of stuff and happens only to be about a mile from where I live. We got the thing working amazingly now! Turns out there was a whole slew of issues. One of the towers was off a ...

Re: Anyone out in SoCal?

Called them, got the shuffle... Considering I bought the unit from there I was hoping they would be more helpful. Oh well, is what it is. I am determined to get it working hell or high water.

Re: Anyone out in SoCal?

I have. They found a bunch of things with the old trucks. Upgraded them but still have the same problem. I figured I will call them again.

Anyone out in SoCal?

Hey Guys, Just wondering if there is anyone out in Southern California that may be willing to lend me a hand with getting my printer in calibration. If you look at my previous posts it has been a hectic ride with this thing. I am willing to pay; I just want to get it working. I am pretty sure it has ...

Re: Still trying to calibrate the printer haha

Ok I like the idea with the cable and turnbuckle. Problem is how do you accomplish that with the stock wooden frame in way and not interfere with the trucks.

Re: Still trying to calibrate the printer haha

Ok think I found something. So I have been using a smaller square to square my towers. I went a bought a larger square as instructed. Anyhow It is square on the bottom, however my Y and Z towers appear to be out of square on top. If I use a smaller square(I have tried more then one.) it shows in ...

Re: Still trying to calibrate the printer haha

What sort of print head? What sort of filament? It is a shame that you had taken thebuildtak off. Looks like it was maybe a little bit too high and possibly too high to get a good result with opendact. I would do a manual configuration like you would for a new printer and try opendact again, it is ...

Re: Still trying to calibrate the printer haha

Rostock Max V2 Mods: Trick Laser Arms, Trick Trucks, FSR bed with your mounting bracket design for the bed feet. FSR's are mounted inside the bracket and the brackets screwed to the wood surface. It does not successfully complete in OpenDACT. It crashed on iteration 101. I was using BuildTak but I ...

Still trying to calibrate the printer haha

Almost a year and a half and still no luck. Switched to trick trucks, trick laser arms, fsrs, etc. Definitely had an issue with my trucks. The wheels were uneven. Trick Trucks made a huge difference. I still cant seem to get the bed aligned though. Attached is a picture of the heightmap of my bed. I ...

Re: Rostock MAX V2 Auto Calibration

Ok well made progress. Wiped my eeprom values and started over. Helped a lot. Somewhere I must of picked up a bad setting and didn't notice it. Been running opendact. Does a pretty decent job but for some reason it keeps setting the 0 point of the bed at about 2.5-5mm higher than what it actually is ...

Re: Rostock MAX V2 Auto Calibration

Well so far I haven't been able to get a full print. I did make a lot of progress though over the weekend. I got g29 s2 to work. At least as much as it can with the current condition the firmware is in. Also got opendact to start working but it still is having an issue where it's running the head ...

Re: Rostock MAX V2 Auto Calibration

Thanks guys. Been a busy work week for me so I haven't had much time to fiddle with it. Been reviewing the repetier code too, seeing how it homes the z axis. Wasn't sure if I might be able to add a routine that does it. Out of curiosity does Marlin have the ability? I've been reluctant to even try ...

Re: Rostock MAX V2 Auto Calibration

Thanks eaglezsoar. I appreciate the help. Unfortunately I read most of these as I was setting up the fsrs and I have reread them but with no success. I guess what I am not understanding is more of the procedure. How I get the auto calibration procedure to measure bed distance and then store it for ...

Rostock MAX V2 Auto Calibration

Hi Guys, I am writing because I am having some issues with trying to get Auto Calibration working with the Rostock MAX v2. I bought and setup some FSRs using information from Mhackney and Nylocke's post as a guide. I then setup, compiled, and flashed with Repetier 0.92.6. The FSRs are responding ...
