D3D v19.02 printed an 8" square with 7.75 on the X axis and 7-7/8 on Y axis. Thus - changed the steps/mm? In the x and y, it was 80. Need to increase these to and 82.58 for x and 81.27 for y. I uploaded marlin, and EEPROM still says 80 80 on LCD. Bug? Somehow EEPROM is not overridden, old values are kept in memory. Lookd likr code upload does not overwrite EEPROM. So I inserted new values via LCD. Result:

D3D v19.02 requires removal of fan shroud to get at a deep neck clog. Neck clog happened with too low nozzle hitting bed, and filament melt backing up all the way to the neck. Unacceptable for maintenance, and OSE version will use an openly accessible filament loading system. Neck will be eliminated.

Titan Aero heat break accepts 3.0 filament, but neck does not. It's tight in the neck. Ie, Titan aero 2.85 mm extruder does not work with 3mm filament. Unacceptable.

  • begin assembly of printer at FeF
  • created spacer parts to assist in keeping plates aligned
  • needed to source M6x30 socket head bolts to attach one Universal CNC Axis to the carriage of another.
    • eight total, 2 for each side of extruder axis and 2 for the carraige of the Zaxis and 2 to mount build plate

RAMBo open source controller. Extensibility to >2A can be addressed by connecting outputs of the RAMBo to a larger stepper driver via the step + direction pins.

RAMBo next generation, 2.5A, and to be used with OSE's 3D Printer Construction Set. Scalability to more than 5 axes - will have to be addressed.

Added 'latest team meeting' video to D3D Development. Jonathan joins team. Planning Factor e Farm build data collection next week, and with those results, we will go forward with improvements prototyping with Jonathan Kocurek, Torbjorn Ludvigsen, and possibly Joshua Langevin and Will Bombardier.

Purchased a Prusa i3 kit from Folger Technologies, the aluminum extrusion version. Goal is to evaluate build, and see what it takes to do a one day build - and determine more specific value proposition as far as how to present the workshop. Considering auto bed level addition - reviews say that calibration is a big issue, and in our case, can be a show-stopper for a one day build. 2 people per team can make it happen more easily if we design for parallel process - definitely doable. I have seen reports of 7-24 hours for the complete build until good printing.
