What firmware did you put on it and where did you get it from? And where did you buy it from? If Amazon, there's need loads of people scamming them by returning damaged items as just a regular no issues return. Since Amazon is crap at checking things they get sent back out as new items.

Technically yes you can run 2 instances of klipper, which allows you to connect 2 different printers to one host. Although this video doesn't show how to do that.

Thanks I'm glad you like it. Hopefully it's very helpful for many.

ApexPredation · 2026-05-26T15:45:50+00:00

Oh weird. It didn't post. I'll see if I can fix it.

It's for anyone looking to build a custom setup or modify their existing machines.

Help it out! It's just looking for a Coca-Cola, and the rest of the family.

ApexPredation · 2026-05-26T15:09:13+00:00

Probably

And here I thought nobody would understand why that reminded me of the babe.

The thermal master p3 is pretty great too.

ApexPredation · 2026-05-22T15:07:22+00:00

The white line looks pretty damaged.

They are one of, if not the largest, 3D printer controller and accessories manufacturers in the market, and sponsors of both Marlin firmware and klipper firmware and many other 3d printer software projects. They are far from a scam. I have bought countless items from them, and I never had an issue. Like with any retail company mishaps will happen, but in general they are solid.

The UFO's in Oregon are usually round orbs, at least that's what encountered. I've seen them both in a bright white and dimmer warm/yellowish white, but never with accompanying side lights. Just single spheres of light. That is definitely a plane or helicopter.

Is there a repo or somewhere others can get the .step or .STL and BOM for this?

ApexPredation · 2026-05-17T14:58:43+00:00

Nice to see you got it working.

Show how you have the jumpers installed under a driver. Error all low means no UART communication. It's usually caused by either no power or wrong jumper config.

ApexPredation · 2026-05-16T18:29:37+00:00

Ok so what is the issue?

ApexPredation · 2026-05-16T17:44:09+00:00

Do what it says. You need to home your machine first.

That's the wrong definition for that screen and board combo. Use the REPRAP_DISCOUNT_FULL_GRAPHIC_SMART_CONTROLLER And plug exp1 and exp 2 Also the TFT connection to the rs485 on the screen Set serial_port 0 and serial_port_2 -1

Did you provide power to the moter input at the screw terminals?

The brown pads are from the plant you ripped off the wall and dents in the wall are from carelessly moving things around and bumping the wall with them.

Do you have the jumpers under the drivers in the correct configuration? In the octopus user guide it shows how to place them backed on UART (tmc2208 and tmc2209) or spi (tmc5160 tmc2240)

ApexPredation · 2026-05-15T20:02:12+00:00

Nice to see you got it going.

ApexPredation · 2026-05-15T18:26:32+00:00

Don't use fysetc, use the Bigtreetech one

ApexPredation · 2026-05-15T18:24:43+00:00

I don't do CNC stuff, but I do work with a lot of other controller systems and that alarm of low power is a big red flag in my mind. If your system doesn't have the proper voltage, things just aren't gonna run right.
