Greetings all,
Here is a little something I fabricobbled over the last couple weeks. I converted my older i3V from the Greg's wade extruder to a direct drive; mostly because I have gone through...
Well there was a small peice of paper in with one of the boxes of parts that had E-Steps 814.xxx so I foolishly assumed that that was the proper setting for the extruder. Now i need to get less...
Well, after a lot of cursing and head scratching, I figured it out. I had the E-steps on the extruder set way, way too high. They were over 800 I cranked them down 100 steps at a time until I got...
Greetings all,
I have a 10" Pegasus that doesn't seem to want to feed filament properly. When extruding the drive pulley skips making a godawful clickclickclickclick noise and the filament does...
I made enclosures for both my printers, 8" i3v and a 10" Pegasus. they were made from fairly cheap materials, 3/4"x 1/16" aluminum angle from the hardware store, Foamboard with aluminum foil glued to...
I have an i3v 8" and a Pegasus 10" both with heated bed relay.

Thank you. As for knowing if the enclosure will eliminate or at least greatly reduce warping, only time will tell. I haven't had a chance to calibrate my printer yet to test it properly. I did run a...
Howdy all,
I was having horrible warping problems when printing ABS. From this great forum I learned that the root cause of my warping issues was cold, my printer lives in my workshop in the...
OK I will try that next. Thank you Roxy.
No, I was a total bonehead and failed to make a copy of the original Configuration.h file. I was trying to unlock some of the extra features available though the LCD interface to better calibrate my...
Good afternoon,
I tried searching this forum and Google for a few days to no avail. I have a Prusa i3v 8". I recently started tinkering with the marlin code and broke it. I was able to do a...
