One of the issues I encountered was with my end connections. Appearently I suck at terminating wires. Once I picked up a racheting crimping tool, all of my connections were a lot smoother. I think...

That can be done in reality with only two arms, however they have to have some torsional stability about them, the rest would have to be compensated for in the software.

I am using Repeiter-Host with Repeiter 0.91 firmware. Not sure if it will work with your printer, however I did have an issue compiling the code. I think the problem had something to do with the final...

The more I think about it, the more I think a lot of it depends on the printer you are using, cartesians are a lot less likely to head crash. While a delta sends the print head flying at high speed...

Thank you for your input. I will check recheck steppers and drivers. Yes the error is even across the whole part. X and Z is OK, just the Y axis is shifted about 2 mms.

The spider webbing comes from retraction speed on the extruder.

Yes, the strings are fairly normal. They are quite easy to get rid of by retraction settings on a monolithic extruder, but on a Delta's bowden one it's not exactly easy. I wasn't able to tune it so as...

Quotejaguarking11 The spider webbing comes from retraction speed on the extruder. The retraction lenght I would argue, is more important.

View ArticleRe: Kossel mini Y coordinate error after Nth layer
That indicates your problem is something else. I do not know what it could be if the generated gcode itself does not contain the shift.

Strings are about retraction length. They disappear for me at about 10 mm retraction length. Retraction speed determines whether there are small blobs of additionally deposited material at the...
