I may also change my bed to aluminum/kapton heater. Not a fan of the PCB type expecially at 12x12 which bows and warps so easy. If you go with a SSR make sure its quality like a Crydom SSR . The...

Very good to know about disabling the progress bar . Thanks. It is possible the relay is failing. Its on my list to check before installing the new PSU. The bed wasnt cooking when it failed. Felt...

Powersupply should be in tuesday. Then i can do some tests. I didnt have the printer connected to the computer at the time to see the communication. I will do so when testing with the new PSU. The...

Thanks. Your redux version looks nice. I ended up recreating it in solidworks myself for my needs . My version made for the Robo http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:1411833

Ok so i went over there to check things out and when i went to turn the printer on it wouldnt . Power supply was dead. I did notice even before i printed anything yesterday the LEDs and hotend fan...

Nothing changed hardware wise from the old firmware i was running which always printed fine. Yes i am printing PLA with stock Makerfarm 12" heated bed / relay with boro glass top. The hotend is a...

Thanks . Ill try it

Thanks. Iv been using mesh leveling on my Robo for a while now. I got RC6 with mesh leveling all setup and running but for some reason i keep getting thermal runaway like 90% done with the print....

Does anything need to be changed in config.adv ? How does mesh work with the fixed Z endstop on the i3v? Im having trouble understanding that. With the robo the xaxis lifts of the z rods which...

Thanks . I apriciate it. I should be able to make any needed changes from here. My slicer is simplify3d

Does anyone have config files for Makerfarm I3V 12" with Marlin RC6 mesh and Rumba they can post ?

Already learned this the hard way. Feature recongnition just wont load on big parts and my computer is built for solidworks running 5ghz 8core 32gig ram with worstation graphics Firepro w8100 8gig ....

STL's arnt editable in solidworks that i know of.It imports a graphics only which is like a 3d picture .It has no bodys/faces,dimensions or anything you can work off off. Something like dxf step igs...

Thanks . I can get STL,scad etc everywhere but need solidworks files specifically as i want to be able to edit in solidworks to make my own design off of it.

On another note what are the differences/various...

i just poured a tiny bit on the bed and move it around with my finger and its already dry and tacky. You can paint it on too or use your putty knife/part scraper
