Comment on Assembled my first 3D printer
Foexle@feddit.org 5 weeks ago- I wasn’t even able to put the printer together without reading the comments pointing to waaay too many flaws in the instructions.
- Well, I learned that with the smooth plate the hard way too.
- Don’t get me started on that one. The nut in the ajustmend-thingy broke loose on mine, after I had to tentioned the belts way too often, cause the Axis bent. I had to saw the screw of at the front to get it out. Whole process took me about a month.
- I put the spacer hooks of the heatbed on the wrong way, and changing them when the printer is essembled. Well, a friend who repairs washing mashines for a living helped me out.
- The ghost clog is interesting too. I’m on my third nozzle now, trying to clean number two and three. Seems like a clog on the seperation of filament in front of the vulcano-split (high flow) and by the love of god I can’t seem to het them unclogged. I soked them in cemecals to break the plastic-chains. The design is so annoying to get to in any way, cause at least as a amateur, you only realize the clog when its too late. (and I know that that might break some cotings of the hardened steel nozzle, but a this point, I tried anything else) So yea, I hope you’re printing adventure is smoother than mine.
