As FYI, I use Gorilla CA Glue. Work very nicely and I love the content. In fact, I also have wood glue and "normal?" glue from them.

I always use high viscosity CA it's the consistency of maple syrup and stinks to high heaven but it sticks pretty good. Roughing up the plastic helps too. The ones that I have had fail seem to let go...

Well done Sebastien. I knew you would get there :-) As far as milling the 4mm diameter hole 4mm deep in the 8mm diameter stainless steel balls goes. I would like to say that it's due to my superior...

Have you checked your steps/mm is the same on all motors and that all the jumpers under the driver boards are identical? (and are actually connected, sometimes they ship without the metal connector)
View ArticleRe: Effector "Rocking"
Yup, Im running an arduino with RAMPS and all the jumpers are on and the motors run at the same speed. Im running GT2 belts with 20 tooth pulleys - Believe the setting is 80 in Marlin.

Are you sure that your Bowden tube is not bending more at the outer edges of your build area? The increased friction in the tube from the extra bends will cause the filament to drag, and it could be...

Calibration finished after 99 time. I guess it's not "normal". Everywhere, the printer tap 2-3 time, except for the middle point between x and y, she's always tapping 7 times (not sure for the last...

Looks great. Best way to tighten the belts is to loosen the screws on the steppers and lift them to the top of the slots. Pull the belt loop into the rod carriers as tight as you can get it and then...
