I'm not going to send you away from a Rapido, it works pretty well for PLA. That is, assuming you didn't overtighten the grub screw... There's a tiny little screw, like an M2 or smaller, that holds the skinny filament guide tube into the heatsink. It's incredibly easy to overtighten that...

Beautiful. How long does it run before it clogs, and is it pretty repeatable?

@Beez post the section of your config for the lights, and what they're plugged into. It's likely you have them configured as an on/off output, when they could be using PWM.

The BuildTak Nylon sheets work extremely well. Like, they're almost consumables, but they'll make Nylon stick.

Can you post what you're using for: * reverse bowden (spool to toolhead) * forward bowden (extruder to hotend) * spool holder itself * chamber temperature / printer preparation * minimum & maximum flow rates * nozzle temperature, and nozzle type/size * retraction settings

Do you mean the V2.4r2? If so, solid choice. To see if your parts are ABS or ASA, you can scrape a thin segment of plastic off something (maybe your duplicate X parts?) and burn it. ABS and ASA burn with a sooty yellow/orange flame and smell like a car fire. PLA will burn with a drippy...

It does solve both issues! So, lets normalize UART while the cheap adapters come onto the market. Klipper needs drivers for their controllers.

CAN as currently implemented in Feb 2023 is quite problematic vs. UART (high CPU utilization, poor timings, etc). Especially since the implementation right now is UART ... over CAN. Maybe if we can switch to a more pub-sub system instead of tunneled communication, CAN will truly rule the...

Or use UART. Klipper Expander doesn't do anything incredibly demanding that UART would fail with. Could even build a small power supply into it...

The way a mechanical relay fails is from a high inrush current welding the contacts. The way an SSR fails is from ESD or inductive kicks. Each has a failure mode, but on the chance you manage to fail one closed, you're now back to as safe as you were with the stock wiring.

Installing the software is a mostly copy+paste affair, and using KIAUH after that. Use the following ISO, burned with balenaEtcher onto a MicroSD card. Distro file: * https://distro.libre.computer/ci/ubuntu/22.04/ubuntu-22.04.2-preinstalled-server-arm64%2Baml-s905x-cc.img.xz You aren't...

Preparing the Waveshare hat I vastly prefer using UART for my MCUs for a variety of mostly superstitious reasons, but there's no USB disconnects to have or looking up serial IDs. The Waveshare hat combines both RS485 and CANBUS hardware, using the SPI bus for CANBUS and one of the UARTs for...
