for autobed leveling which one is better? servo or proximity sensor? i already know how to setup servo but for the sensor i didnt understand in the thomas video on youtube, positive and negative from the sensor connect with positive(RED) and negative(BLACK) from the power supply directly or on the ramps terminal block?

and the signal wire from the sensor will connect into the z end stop signal pin? so there will only be 1 wire connect to the z endstop which is the signal from the sensor. am i right or wrong here smile.gif

print it and is this ok? if i push my caliper with little pressure the cube measurement is around 4.9mm and then when i let go the caliper and let it without any pressure the cube measurement is 5mm. This is on each axis

Do i need to adjust my setting again and when i measure the cube with pressure or without pressure with the caliper it will fix on 5mm.

Guys!

I am exploring the software side of 3D printing. Trying to learn how to draw my own 3D object. Is there any good program which you would recommend for a beginner like me? Tried using Sketchup but all the measurement does not seems to add up once i export the file out as *.obj.
*
Maybe you can try freecad, it can edit stl files that you downloaded from web

Hi solidwork also easy 3d software.. before this im using autodesk inventor.. when i try solidwork.. more easier..
ooo.. ok i tot can edit from the web hehe..
i edit the stl file.. the object full of mesh sad.gif

This is what i create from copying the thingverse design so that it will fit my rods and screws

You could charge based on time, weight, or volume of print.

Hey guys, I'm sorry I tak sempat read all the previous posts but can someone guide me through how to get a cheap printer?

i bought mine from aliexpress prusa i3 kit , or you can follow the BOM and source parts and vitamins locally. For acrylic frame, it will give some problem but dont know when it will happend tongue.gif it like time bomb brows.gif i think i want to convert my i3 to wilson ts for rigidity cause i saw my acrylic frame got a little bend on parts that hold the y axis. if you type of person that love to modified and tweaking thing find kit that come with controller that we can modified and upload the firmware to the controller, usually aliexpress kit that come with melzi board we can't upload or modified the firmware

you can actually reflash the firmware on the melzi board, the isp headers are broken out. I helped a friend flash his melzi's firmware to repetier host 0.91

interest in this, can you tell me how cause my board i can't upload merlin into it, and the seller also tell me that dont touch the firmware tongue.gif 1 week with the melzi and change it to ramps1.4 already biggrin.gif

From memory, I didnt use the ICSP, just used the usb, my buddy's melzi from china had the rrp or something firmware and we use repetier firmware. The steps i did to flash is

1. Download the repetier firmware (http://www.repetier.com/firmware/v091/index.html)
2. Download the arduino IDE
3. Download the sanguino board information for arduino from https://code.google.com/p/sanguino/downloads/list
4. Load the repetier firmware in Arduino, do the configuration.h changes, select the sanguino board (since melzi uses the atmega 1284p chip)
5. Upload firmware
6. Make sure everything works using repetier host
7. Copy eeprom settings from an existing melzi thats running repetier host to the newly flashed board

I dont use marlin so cant help u there sad.gif

Thanks for the step, do your friend melzi come with the printer or he buy the melzi board only?

He bought the melzi board only for his 2nd printer.

i read somewhere that melzi you bought from aliexpress just as single board we can upload firmware into it and melzi that come with the printer kit most of them we can't upload firmware into it, because developer did something to the board already

I've never tried to flash one that came with the printer. It may be possible they set the AVR fuse to disable re-programming, but i didn't see that as a fuse option for the atmeta1284p. Maybe try flashing via the isp headers?

guys, do 200C decent temperature range for PLA cause before this i can print nicely without any problem to extrude the filament with 185C, but today new filament new color 185C seem not enough for the new filament to extrude without my motor skipped steps.

Are filament color will effect the temperature range?
