    XOL Versus (stock) CW2/ SB

    Very impressive - I take it the older IS graphs are SB/ before and the 10-month-old (newer) ones are XOL? If so, the peaks increased in frequency and became sharper (and even Y recommended ZV). I realized that to go ultra-low weight I would want a mini-sherpa instead of an orbiter. I...

    LDO Leviathan Control Board Information

    It pretty much is an alternative to Manta for a unified Voron/ 3D-printer electronics solution. It's based on a full-sized Pi instead of a compute module. Pros - built-in beefier 5160s, better input protection (larger fuses, more protection), lower cost (since it includes drivers). Cons - only...

    XOL Versus (stock) CW2/ SB

    Anyone have familiarity with https://github.com/Armchair-Engineering/Xol-Toolhead? It claims to be substantially higher than the stock XW2/ SB at ~250g. I have a pretty light setup - using a Voron Revo and aluminum and titanium screws with an SB2040 that clocks in at 397g (I think 430g is what...

    Anyone assembled a Voron 2.4 with CNC Alumn parts - 0 XY Joint issue?

    Honestly, it depends on your specific XY joints. I suspect most do use different hardware as the 40mm M5 steel bolts are heavy and most aluminum XY joints aim to use less steel to lower weight. I used the Common Anomaly Productions ones which need different bolts and a single spacer for the...

    Question Most critical plastic part for quality prints?

    I can recommend the square nut mod for the X carriage to address this problem. I kept having the headsets pull out (even from normal ABS), granted I was testing different extruders and extruder gears so cycled them a little more than would be "normal." Reprinting these in CF-ABS, I haven't had a...

    No fan output from Octopus 1.1

    Where is the failure? In the toolhead board or the Octopus? If in the toolhead board - maybe just run a couple extra wires? Or try to re-use another pin? Are you 100% sure all your Octopus fan pins are shorted? (It has 8) As well as the 4 hotend pins. My knee jerk would be to just move to...

    Carbon Fiber ABS

    Thanks. By and large, I agree that adding CF will enhance axial strength to the possible detriment of layer adhesion. That seems to be the main item in the video as to how CF-filled filament is weaker than the standard variety, although the video really only mentions it in the PLA-CF section. I...

    Carbon Fiber ABS

    I know there is a wide variety of materials - care to explain where this generalization comes from? I only question since it goes against my (admitted limited) experience which is the couple of CF-ABS I've used have equal or better strength with better stiffness. The expensive MatterHackers...

    Voron R2 350 Input Shaper Result

    Those graphs are very, very good - better than mine. I was able to get flawless parts with no ringing at slower speeds (~3-4000mm/s) I bet you probably could do better, maybe ~5-6000mm/s. Are you doing anything that might explain why you have ~10 Hz higher than what I got on my 350mm? As far...

    Question Most critical plastic part for quality prints?

    Assuming your parts are dimensionally accurate (and you are getting good prints) - you probably do not need to reprint anything. If you have a higher strength / stiffer material - I would advise reprinting the extruder latch parts, the front of the extruder (assuming CW2), and the X carriage -...

    Voron R2 350 Input Shaper Result

    That graph from my 350mm v2-13458 is off an SB2040, Revo Voron Stealthburner, stock Y axis (standard extrusion). Everything besides my electronics is stock - I'm still running drag chains too, just putting the CANbus and endstop pod wires through the chains. All standard ABS (Hatchbox) parts.

    Voron R2 350 Input Shaper Result

    Interested in what you did between the first and 2nd set of graphs? Basically, I'm trying to netter understand what is being indicated by a double peak in y . I genuinely wish there were better resources in learning how to interpret these. In the 2nd graph, the jaggedness of the y peak looks...

    Really just curious more than anything, what nozzle sizes to folks like to use on their 2.4's?

    I pretty much run 0.4 on everything - v2-1428 (350mm) and my new v2 (250mm) . I have 0.6 and 0.25 Revos and barely use them. I also have Dragons I could swap in and use v6 nozzles. I use 0.6 if I'm printing something big that needs to be strong, like a container for organizing parts. I use 0.25...

    Is a Lightweight X axis worth it for a 300mm V2.4

    While I don't have a V2 300 - I have a 250 and 350. My experiences are here. TLDR - I didn't see much improvement, maybe a little/ placebo improvement in print quality. I did not see any real downside though for the skeletonized extrusion for my V2s. They didn't change my input shaping - my 350...

    First time build.

    The 2nd link is actually an SB2040. That first one is just a toolhead breakout board (you need a ~20+ wire loom back to your motherboard and no ADXL). The 2nd is actually the Mellow CANbus board. I highly recommend a CAN toolhead board - I built my 1st Voron before they were an option and the...
