Paddy that's a really interesting idea! I have no clue how a virtual pivot would work and how to realize it though. @Hazer AFAIK extruder meant originally both the hotend (which extrudes the plastic)...

@paddy92: The math doesn't work out if you connect to a plate instead of a point. I really wanted to do it that way on both LISA and GUS but math wouldn't cooperate. This is the current best way I...

I guess an alternative might be to create a really big 3D printed bearing, similar to these, using delrin balls

@Dejay: I really like that solution also. In fact, I am going to order some balls and try this out just to see what I think. However, there are a few consequences. If the hub offset is different from...

I'm more than capable of building and troubleshooting things like this, but I want my first printer to be very reliable. I was originally looking at the Printrbot Metal, but I'm seeing the clear...

What you need is auto printbed leveling. It doesn't matter what printer you have, if this is correctly implemented you can save quite a bit of headache and print like a champ every time.

FYI, Bas today announced the DECAMUX that allows to control 10 stepper motors via two PEPPER penta stepper boards with the Beaglebone Black / BeBoPr. LinuxCNC seems to be limited to 9 stepper motors...

I have a Beagle Bone Black with the CRAMPS that is capable of controlling 9 steppers. That could mean a Sextupteron with 2 extruders and 1 gripper. It is really exciting to see all the solutions start...

So in that case I'd actually be better off going with the Printrbot? I did not see an auto leveling probe on the Kossel kit.
View ArticleRe: Reliability of Deltas?
You can implement a leveling probe or FSRs on any bot. Kossel was actually one of the first printers to popularize its use.
View ArticleRe: Reliability of Deltas?
Deltas are very reliable and all decent printers tend to print with similar quality, the biggest difference is maintenance, print volume and speeds really. Some also do not like to be moved. My...

I recently purchased and assembled an ultibots mini kossel and it's working great! It doesn't have auto leveling and it doesn't need it. I can't stress that enough. Auto leveling is all the rage right...

Edit: I see your solution was found. good luck.
View ArticleRe: Reliability of Deltas?
With all factors considered shipping, tax, features the two printers are about the same price. The Printrbot is more robust, but the Kossel should give much faster prints. My decision has come down to...

I've got my Kossel up and running, but I still haven't gotten my bed quite level yet. I've got the printing flattened (no noticeably concave/convex curve) but my G29 autoprobe results show a slant on...
