Welcome to the SeeMeCNC Community

No I am rather far from that step. I only have time on the weekend to build it so I had to stop on Sunday. Part of me is thinking that Im never going to get this thing working right but Ill give it my best.

well I took pictures on my phone. IN the pictures I could see what looks like solder in the thru hole but it did not wick up the pin or break the surface. I guess the bottom side of the card was wave soldered however that is a really poor solder joint. http://s1018.photobucket.com/user/Le_AFI/media ...

Hey everyone

On the seemecnc assembly video they say that the rambo will be preprogrammed and the esd bag will be open when we receive the board. The board I received, the esd bag was still sealed. Does this mean I need to program it or are they re-sealing the ESD bags?

Thanks

Ok Ill take some tomorrow when Im back at work. It wasnt even cracked joints, there just wasnt any solder at all it was clean.

Hey everyone

Does anyone know if there should be 2 connections on the back of the LCD (one on each of the connectors) which are not soldered? Ill try to post a pic later if you dont know what I mean.

Thanks

where is the / what is the build log?

Are your vertical arms flush against the top plate? Mine wont stay against it when I tighten the lugs down. They are maybe 20 mil away and I can not keep them flush.

check the rostockmax wiki page there is bom list there. there is bom picture on this forum. just have to find it. edit here is a link to some photos http://seemecnc.org/download/RostockMAX/Assembly/ as far as the lcd goes, you'll want to install it between the x and y towers, so it does not ...

Also I purchased the second extruder. Should I install it now?
I seem to read on seemecnc's website that they didnt have a chance to update the SW and FW to support the second extruder. Is this the case?

I would like to say thank you to the person writing the manual it is greatly helpful! I am just a bit worried about using the wrong parts and needing more. Can someone confirm that we can not solder the wires for the hot end? Based on the manual we solder the thermistor but crimp the power resistors ...

Do you know what mounting screws I am supposed to use? I think mine are the Philips but there are 2 different ones. One is slightly tighter in the hole but both are a good deal longer than the gap and I do not know if it they are even the right screws. The tighter fitting one is 1.8 inches and the ...

Sorry I thought i was ok if I just posted the link. Should be public now.

OK Thanks They must have made changes to the design from when that 3d model was published because the ilde spacers are not the same as the assembly manual. Too bad I do not have those either. :-( do you have the black version injection molded spacer. looks like a sprocket? if you do those are your ...

These are the parts I have. The timing pulleys and feet are already installed so they are not in the pictures.

I do not know if I have the bearing sleeve. Mine are black. Are those them?

OK Thanks

Yes the top is labeled not the bottom but I need to know (unless it does not matter) where in the orientation the compartments need to be. The top (not the top on top of the bars) seems symetical so I can rotate it in any direction. If this is the case does it matter in which place I put the LCD or ...

The problem is the X and Y towers are not labeled on the bottom housing so I do not know which is which. Ill look at the 3d Model.

Bom list is in text. I need to see what they are referring to.

Thanks let me look. Was that on the wiki page?

Hey is there a parts list with pictures and tells you what bag the parts came in? I seem to be missing the idler spacers per instructions section 17. I have 3 tubes of 8 bearings but can not find the spaces. Was it supposed to come in the same bag as the rest of the major assembly parts? (It seems ...

Ok done. Will I need the metal plate if I have the glass one? How does the plate prevent the center of the onxy from drooping down?

can you tell me where you bought it? thanks!

Hey mhackney
I was looking to buy one of your plates for the heated bed it said they are out of stock. About when will they be in stock so I can order one?

I ordered a Rostockmax and also included the glass plate. Would I still need the aluminum?
