I bought two Revos as soon as they came out. They both worked for a while but then had thermistor problems (the resistance would suddenly get lower or higher looking like a really fast temperature change) that would cause the ADC error. I ended up getting two replacement heater/thermistor...

Well I'm not sure what the problem is, but it is NOT Galileo. I took the hotend off and Galileo pulls filament for miles. Maybe it was my uncalibrated fingers (I thought I was maintaining tension but no longer felt it pulling) or something odd with my dragon hot end. Anyway, I owe Galileo 2...

In terms of the period of the loosening, it seems longer than the diameter of the bearing. I guess I need to take it apart and see if there are any clues.

I ballparked the tension, just tightened it until it had a solid grip on the filament, but the the grip periodically loosens.

Finally testing my new build (from LDO kit) today. Initially seemed to be working perfectly, but if I put tension on the incoming filament with my fingers, it pulls really strongly for ~50-80mm then it starts slipping. Is this what happens when the stepper is installed "a tooth off", as the...

As long as your QGL eventually converges (ends without failing), you should be fine. A few mms (in X and y) here or there doesn’t matter - the important thing is to even out the height of four corners - their exact XY position doesn’t have to be accurate to a few mms.

I‘ve had the same thing, where some corners have more variation than others. Look for something interfering with the vertical travel of the carriage. it could be the wire chain binding/scraping, or pressure from the the not-a-Bowden tube (and/or filament) pulling (typically laterally) on the...

This is almost certainly not the best way, but I just manually clip off any filament sticking out of the nozzle with wire cutters before starting anything (when the nozzle is cold). There may be a small bit of filament left, but it gets flattened to basically nothing after a few probes. After...

I've found that almost every time I get some sort of "Move out of Range" error, it's because something (usually a macro) has left klipper in a G91 (relative) state when it should be in a G90 (absolute) state. Doesn't apply to your situation, but thought I'd put it here for anyone searching for...

Great tips! I've done similar testing. Waiting 20 minutes (or longer, at least until the measured temp completely settles) is key. I found that for a V6 style nozzle, I was able to loosen the nozzle, wedge the thermocouple tip between the bottom of the heater block and the top lip of the...
