    Need to understand well downsides when the printer is bigger than 350mm

    If my replies, suggestions or critique helped you make up your mind or see something in a more practical way, then I am happy for both of us. I don’t always answer on all your points for a variety of reasons, and I do not like to then “scatter” the information by responding in such a way that...

    Need to understand well downsides when the printer is bigger than 350mm

    You need to build your own and find out the limits of 3d printing first hand. Those numbers are just numbers until you start printing. Very quickly you will find out a few things. For instance the fact that in most printers these maximum figures are rarely reached for the simple fact that by the...

    They told me this hotend is standard and you always get one. My missing parts finally arrived after 4 weeks.

    The printed parts are PC (polycarbonate) blend with carbon fiber wich definitely is a significant upgrade in terms of strength and temperature resistance compared to standard PETG. also his quality is out of this world according to almost all of his clients. https://store.brs-engineering.com/en...

    Need to understand well downsides when the printer is bigger than 350mm

    When you look at any files of any machine now, you will likely see the latest version. My brother has this machine from when V-core 3 was relatively new. Some of his mods were toolhead upgrades, which at a later stage were changed again. Eventually he settled for the phaetus v2 rapido uhf and a...

    Need to understand well downsides when the printer is bigger than 350mm

    Did this person build his 1x1x2 meter machine for a one of project? I recall some long time ago I saw somebody doing this to 3d print a statue of some sort, but it might be another person altogether. Phenomenal project though and not for the faint of heart. Found your link and he also printed a...

    Need to understand well downsides when the printer is bigger than 350mm

    @vorondesignlover you said "Well, going with 3030 aluminum extrusions and 9mm belts to me seems another easy step". This might sound ok but it is not strictly speaking true. When you look at the original design of 2020 frame of the voron, you will quickly find all sorts of pitfalls in yourt...

    Need to understand well downsides when the printer is bigger than 350mm

    My brother has a ratrig vcore 300 and has spent double the purchase money on mods so far, and some were taken of again. now ratrig has just done an update of their OS, and my brother was experiencing trouble with some of his previously working things. He also found out that since /ratrig is...

    BTT Octopus Pro vs Mellow 64bit FLY Gemini V3

    Yes there always comes a point at which you need to decide and it is hard for somebody else to make up your mind. What you are doing is good but you can take it too far. At some point you are comparing apples with pears and trying to decide which is best. At that point it depends on weather you...

    BTT Octopus Pro vs Mellow 64bit FLY Gemini V3

    I did not pay for the machine itself, it was given to me by my dad who lost interest. I think he paid euro 1400 second hand. Since then I added the following: Chaoticlab cnc aluminium parts full kit orbiter V2 revo micro ( I will lose this one, already bought its replacement) phaetus rapido UHF...

    BTT Octopus Pro vs Mellow 64bit FLY Gemini V3

    Certainly it is possible to do it on a smaller budget when you buy all the clones from aliexpress, Amazon or Ebay, but you will soon regret it. I strongly advise you to not go the budget route, and I say this with my own 3d printing startup experience with Creality and spares from those sources...

    BTT Octopus Pro vs Mellow 64bit FLY Gemini V3

    this year the beacon became dual setup also which means you can choose usb or canbus. With regards to the compatibility of the boards to toolheads I cannot help you. I have never been a fan of the standard toolheads on anything, not only Voron, and as of many years I prefer to design my own...

    machine stood for a while

    He has printed several ASA parts since and one lasted 9 hours but it is not gone to its previous supple feel yet. Maybe it needs more time.

    BTT Octopus Pro vs Mellow 64bit FLY Gemini V3

    Dear friend, I think you confuse canbus with usb. Your mods list also says nighthawk usb. Did you change something?

    machine stood for a while

    So the machine stood for an extended period of time doing nothing, and now the belts feel like they are having a big difference in resistance during manual moves. there seem to be spots where the resistance suddenly drops to half and then instantly have a small tight spot. I think it is where...
