bloody hell - 7 minutes 30 to heat up !
Thought you had a mosfet for the bed ?

How on earth can it take so long to get to temp ?
The lights are nice - but why does it take so long to heat up ?...

I'll have ago at setting up an idex printer on simplify3d.

But I ws thinking about the actual sequence I;d want last night.
To start with you need to maintain the temp on the nozzle.
So no...

have to admit i was pretty impressed with the first lizard.
The second one looks even better.

As far as the idex slaicer setup goes - I'd have started with a profile from an existing i3 idex...

not sure how good s3d would be with idex.
I never got it to do dual extrusion - but it has been a long time since I tried.

The bbd (big bastard delta) is kind of interposed throughout my...

lol the htread is there.
But life moves on and I'm hoping that what I;ll need in the near future is another machine that's shit hot at printing tpu.

So currently considering looking for another...

what software do you use to edit and compile marlin ?

Also to whet your appetite, this is the basic frame for a 350x1000 delta that i will eventually make, probably. lol...

lmao - and at that point you'll remember the little nagging voice in the back of your head that's been whispering:
Build a really big delta and print full sized people...

So come on: $1000, 2,...

I know it's crass - but any idea how much that has cost you so far ? (knowing you, the ruby tipped nozzles will be added at some point, probably when you realise how much better than pet-g nylon with...

Christmas tree lights would be cool - with all the effects :-)

It's a smart looking beast and no mistake !

cool a diy ideax.

So how does the board know where the two extrduers are at any given moment ?
So they don't crash into each other ?

wow that board's a big sucker !
Good price though.
That's longer than the mini itx boards I tend to use for workshop projects.
You can usually pick up a board, intel core I3 cpu and 2-4gb ram...

why are you using such dense infill ?

If you use triagular infill and more walls/outlines you could cut the weight of the drastically and still keep them as strong.

the tringular infill is...

Printed as a single piece and hollow.
My mate would buy one.
3-400g should do it.

Without cooling, the finger looks good :-)

So how long did that...

well if the bondtech extruder is anything like mine - I'm not overly impressed.

The fact that you can't feed any flexible filament through it at a print speed faster than 10mm/s without it...

just checking :-)

just out of curiosity - could you put linear rails on the z axis - and would it make a difference ?

what's a prime bucket ??

Oh and here's a video for you to think about your next project. 'cos you know, once the mumu is working you'll just get bored watching it move about. ;-)
What I really...

pretty sure you're 90% of the way there.
The mumu was definitely doing the right thing. Just looks like a standard normal extruder feed issue.

And you should be able to fix that in your sleep...

makes some horrible noises and that big lump at the end of the filament isn't good either. could easily get stuck in the hotend.

The extruder is jamming.
Looks like the feed path has issues,...

lol - damn that has to be frustrating :-)

Looking forward to the results. if you can use 5 different materials - bugger the speed :-)
That's just really cool.

I guess pet-g would be best as...

Ah right it's a shelf.
Umm so why did it take so long ? And why such a dense infill. you could have got away with 10% on something that large no problem.
What speed did you print it at ?
I mean...

so the mumu has it's own board with screen outputs ?
That's useful.

Yeah saw those 2-in-1 screens and ended up with the touchscreen only as it's just for my cheapo prusa clone.

had no idea...

looks great :-)
Love the design !

The other test print I do if I want to really push a machine is a print in place fidget cube :-)

With my monoprice mini delta, I put a 0.25mm nozzle on...

yeah had that :-)

As I said, never print another benchy - print an iris box :-) O8nly a well dialled in machine with eevrything working properly will succeed. Particularly good for retraction...
