Any comments on printing these ball- ends ? If tolerance of the socket is no problem, the ball should not add much slack ? It is the spring that cures it ?

if you can get these you can modify the files for you. I got the 9mm balls from aliexpress but they are no longer available. printed balls wont work because they will never be perfectly spherical. one...

Wow. That looks terrific! You need to connect to a host program to send gcode commands to the machine. I use Repetier Host in 'expert' mode but I know lots of people use Pronterface. They are both...

Wicked. Glad I checked with the board before I powered it up. Connected it up to D9. Unfortunately it seems I'm having comms problems though. I've been playing with com ports and baud rates but...

make sure Arduino IDE is closed when you connect to the printer with the 3D Printer Software, as there can only be one connexion to the serial port at the same time. Make sure you are connected at the...

Happened to me as well when the J-head clogged. I just flipped the clamp upside down. Then calibrated the extruder, the step/mm values were about 50% off in the firmware from 3DPrinterczar. See also...

If you have successfully flashed the firmware from Arduino IDE to the Mega2560 then that baud rate and COM port must be the correct ones. I have had issues previously with Repetier Host refusing to...

That's a bit concerning then, because I've been able to update the firmware through Arduino IDE several times without issue. Originally windows allocated COM3 but I saw references to 'serial port 1'...
View ArticleRe: Cherry Pi III Is Available
The COM port name is what Windows calls the serial port in your PC. Whatever you were reading in the code 'serial port 1' is how the card's firmware references the serial port on your Mega 2560 board....
