Solved! Discord to the rescue! Probable cause was a rounding error. Setting position_min: -1 at [stepper_x] in printer.cfg solved the problem. Thanks @Hagbard V2.1070 ! Well, in prepration to install a Canbus toolhead, I decided to switch to sensorless homing. I followed the guide by Eric...

I've now been on my Voron journey for over a year, and it's still fun! Somwhere along the way i got my startup and shutdown script to work with orca slicer and got my heatsoak-process down (still manual, but maybe a script in the future..). Meanwhile I'm not quite happy with my vertical...

Here you find instructions for the Formbot (the wiring is the first one): https://www.formbot3d.com/pages/user-manual-53 I also followed the build videos (from Nero and Thomas Sananandladerer[sic]) which were quite helpful for some details. And of course the wiring instructions of the original...

One year ago I built a formbot kit, it was ok, however it lacked specific documentation. Wiring, rails, extrusions, screws, electronics etc. were all OK. I had no problem putting it together. The new "pro" kit has some nice improved features (among others: TAP, nevermore, screen, pi-clone...

Your question is quite basic and broad, so answers will be accordingly. But I'll try. Also, use other resources than this forum, and read up on what voron is and isn't. That said, let's start the fun part! It is quite feasible to print multiple identical parts in one session. Just copy it...

Ok.. I'm close to finishing all hardware mods off (cleaning and rollers for easy maintenance) and the accelerometer is almost done. So I take some time and look at the main components and suppliers. As per title i start with the the kit supplier Voron 2.4 kit - Formbot The formbot kit was...

Ladies and Gentlemen, may i present to you: V2.5625 "We kept it Grey" Since last time I added a camera (less than 30€ for a new 720p, maybe add a second one to get a different angle) and lights They are set of old IKEA dioder i had laying around and the mod is super-easy to print and...

The resistor is there to prevent an inrush current. It was a bug that was discovered in the first boards. So unless you want to buy a new board, keep the resistor. If you keep polarity, the diode shouldn't matter. To check if the board works as it should, there is a diode, on the board that...

About the shape of the mesh, it could be an effect of the heatsoak and that the extrusions "sag" a little.. but who knows, i am consistently 0.1-15mm in variation. I decided to attach the panels with clamps, unfortunately, without propper enclosure even small parts will lift, if they get half...

Check that your probes are configured for the correct input on the board. If you follow the official v2.4 instructions and use the example printer.cfg you have to change the input pin(s).

Ok.. now for some fun.. Just to shake things up (literally) I sliced a benchy with everything turned to 11: 400mm/s print speed, whatever.. 25k acceleration, max flow rate 50mm3 - revo .4mm can take 13 in pla.. Went about as well as you'd imagine... I aborted the print... not because of the...

Well.. DUH! 🤪 I get how I can QGL, calibrate z-height, pressure advance, input shaping and cooling ABS without cooling ABS... but how do I improve the most important parameter: the WAF* :unsure: *Wife Acceptance Factor

Welcome to a great journey! Take your time and enjoy the ride. I was in the same position at the beginning of the year, but quickly turned to kits because the sourcing seemed quite a chore. I turned to formbot. Mostly because it included precrimped and terminated wires of the correct length...

Ok.. next day, a good nights sleep and some light reading of forum posts does wonders! All above problems could be resolved by changing the config file. Basically all directions had to reversed.. of course this goes for ALL steppers (except extruder of course). Six exclamation-points later the...

Ok.. wiring is.. interesting.. For some reason the stock Formbot wires have the TOTALLY wrong terminals for the Tap probe and the Revo. So even if the type is correct, the "gender" is switched so I can't even re-pin. Fortunately the Revo comes with connection cables and some splicing with...
