right got pronterface, attached usb.
And by george it works !
So far I've just been playing with moving the head around.
heated the bed - that works.
Hmm, extruder doesn't work.
But hey, the rest is good :-)
Had thought - maybe extruder won't feed till it's heated up.
That seems to be working - heats up super fast too.
Yep that was it - everything working :-)
Had a play. Did extrude some plastic, but not much.
Think it's having problems pushing it through the tube.
Probably have to move the extruder and shorten the tube again.
Figure I can mount the filament on the neighbouring strut and bring it across and up slightly.
Might also switch to the 0.5mm nozzle.
But all in all - everything works. Just need the tweaking and furtling to get it where I want it.
Had simplify 3d moving the head around. Wouldn't do a phantom print, but that's most likely a gcode issue.
Need to update the s3d on this computer and load it in as a new printer.
Overall I have to give it two thumbs up :-)Last edited by curious aardvark; 05-22-2017 at 10:37 AM.
