TronXY has a cool IDEX here:...

If anybody out there is interested in my design motor mount for the dual Z it can be freely downloaded by any and all right here: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:6105194

I have quickly moved through the next rework on this printer. This IDEX now boasts a pair of mirrored Bondtech BMG-M extruders both with IDGA and both with Slice Engineering Mosquito Magnum hotends...

It's been a while but this printer lives. I am excited for Prusaslicer's paint feature. It has given a whole new life and meaning to my IDEX. And so I am entertaining the next step in this robot's...

You'd do better in these days to stay away from the bed slingers. It doesn't matter which firmware you run today Klipper or Marlin they both support input shaper and tuning X and Y resonance with an...

Hello everybody. It has been a while since I have updated this thread. And that is because I have been busy trying to flesh out a family business for my wife, kids, and myself.

Our small llc is...

It is fun to make chips. Aside from the DRO, I have gotten a proper light for the toolhead..

The light is an AmScope 144-LED microscope...

After all these years of playing with plastics in my living room I finally found a place and have got my first mill. The LMS 3990..

The 2209's won't fit on that board. These drivers have 2 extra pins and you will need to upgrade to a 32-bit mainboard for that. You can use TMC2208/2225 drivers. And there is some incredible news on...

TY.

I have my IDEX up and running on Marlin 2.1.1 and also the tft is updated as well. I have been working on the x carriage offsets and am digging my way through calibrations and debugging again..

In case anybody was wondering this is my trick for cleaning the Ultrabase..

I'm trying to print this 200% scale Axolotl without a raft and having troubles getting some of the small bits to stick to the ultrabase. The blue guy printed out on my IDEX but with old filament and...

I can not do that at this point in my skill level with the 3d design software. If you can correct the model for me, I will print it and buy the motor and make it fly on HD video, upload it to...

Well I gave some of them away to anybody I knew that liked or wanted one. And that was nice.

But then I realized they are about the same diameter as a pigskin and surprisingly lightweight. So now...

This is a big printer and that rocket is my new benchy. I am using it to tune my settings. Here is the last one I printed in 1hr 47min start to finish including time for the heaters to warm up..
...

The rocket prints single wall vase mode. I am having success turning up the fan speed from 50% to 100% on the 4020 fan with the specific duct from Bondtech. I am now able to print the rocket...

That actually sounds pretty cool. I might chase down a 1.2 vanadium nozzle. I can't wrap my brain around a nozzle diameter the same size as the filament's diameter.

I think I made a mistake on...

Ok so my best time on printing this 'rocket for mega scaling' scaled to 600mm on Z is right around 2hrs and 20min including time for the bed and extruder heaters to warm from room temp and for the...

I think the BTT Octopus Pro 429 is a better option for a Duet clone. It has 1m of flash and will allow for a full RRF installation. There is just so much more available documentation, information,...

So my actual print volume is 510mm X 480mm X 600mm. I can get Z to 610 or 612 but I need 10mm headroom for safe Z homing. And the DD setup cost me a little on Y. But I plan on getting that back when...

I am almost done with the 3 sides of my enclosure that I wanted to make structural. I can not begin to describe how happy I am with the results of this. There was so much drilling and so many screws...

The X5SA 500 Pro I have will not fit through a doorway assembled the way it comes. However if we make some careful mods to only let things grow outside the frame on the sides and nothing in front or...
