Thanks for your reply. After reading it, I realized that I'd already read all that before. I just needed someone to reinforce it. In other words, pound it back into my thick head.
I'm trying to figure out my under-extrusion problem, so first I'm digging into E-Step calibration. Ellis3dp instructs to test at 1mm/sec and I get consistent results there. That doesn't seem like a realistic speed to me. Why so slow? With 0.4 Nozzle and 0.2 layer height, 1mm/sec extrusion...
Most all of us have been where you are now. There is a lot to take in. Check out the Voron channel on Discord. You can often get answers in minutes. (Of course, discord have its own learning curve)
270 / removable hinges should definitely be part of my panel upgrade. I'm very interested and I won't turn down an offer to help. I only hope I'm able to remember this whenever I get around to a panel upgrade.🤪
After poking around the web, I've decided that my best option (for now) is to buy them pre-cut from Misumi. The cost seemed pretty reasonable. I'll do the tapping and access hole drilling myself.
I’m interested in cutting, drilling, & tapping some custom length 2020 extrusions. I’m hoping I can get a good square cut with a 10” miter saw if I use an appropriate saw blade. Does the following look like a good choice?

Thanks for response. I think I’ll do the same at some point. It’d be nice having clear panels again. 😆 I have an issue with my doors. When the enclosure warms up the doors expand and buckle a bit, due to interference with each other. Maybe a different hinge would help. Not sure if thicker panels...
Thanks for that information. I think I can draw some inspiration from a dancer arrangement.
I removed all but a stub of tubing to minimize friction of TPU in the tube. The problem with that is the Y axis does a big part of pulling filament. Worse case would be pulling the entire travel...
I've been thinking about just using an Arduino, stepper driver, and some limit switch with a very light touch. It would just maintain a slack loop. Once the loop gets to some minimum length, it would feed out 10 or 20 cm of filament. The feed rate wouldn't matter much as long as it was faster...
Nice looking filament feed! Thanks for the update. I’m afraid that tight loop in reverse Bowden is going to create drag. Sorry about the unsolicited criticism, old men do that sometimes.
That really looks incredible. I'd be interested in additional information that you would care to offer. Machine details, Nozzle Size, Speed, Retraction, or anything else.
