    The brass and aluminum will have no problems with salt water.
    The mesh (I think) is galvanized steel. It is the same mesh that Rylan had picked to ship with the Peachy.
    I just checked some of my...

    Progress continues !

    Many additional tweaks to the code were required and it is working VERY well now!!!
    It works flawlessly with the 6 builtin test models in the Peachy software.

    I've continued to hack away at the arduino code for the z-axis.
    I have had more problems getting it to work than I expected !! It took a lot of experimenting to know what the system really needed.

    Super Exciting Update !!!

    Well... I'm excited anyway :-)
    Over the last four days I have been hacking away on the Z-Axis system, testing and coding.

    Great timing !!!
    Yes, life had washed me away again but I always wash back up on shore eventually ;-)

    I would call it Significantly Stalled.

    One or both of these things need to happen to get things rolling:
    1) The investigation needs to "conclude" something
    2) A new investor/funding needs to be...

    I've been working on an epic update but have rewritten it about 3 times so far...
    So, a mini update.

    Ok. I have definitely confirmed that Cura 2.3 works with the Peachy printer !!
    I will have some pics uploaded later (I will add the link here)

    My most recent issue with Cura was that when I...

    I will take some detailed pics as soon as I can but it will be a few days (out of town :-(

    Yes, just about every slicer out their is made for an FDM printer unfortunately. Thankfully, they provide extensive options to change how the software works with the printer.

    I did the dripper calibration and a few print tests with glow paper.
    The dripper calibration numbers just didn't seem to add up so I took the "drips per ml" number from the pop bottle and multiplied...

    OK. Found a stew pot at the local thrift store ($4).
    It has a surface area 5.81 TIMES larger than the pop bottle. That should make a difference !!

    I really like to top two.
    I think the planetary gear pump would work the best but the second link that is multi part might be easier to print.

    Can you find a printable version and post a link? I will find time to test it along side printing and testing the scissor jack.

    This would be worth it if you could get the scissor jack for cheap and adjust it manually during the print.

    A scissor jack would work great.
    However, for the cost of the jack (or less!!!) you could have a stepper motor based Z-Axis system and have all your problems solved.
    It's just not worth...
