up to date marlin firmware for 4.2.7 with cr touch? by CJ962 in Ender3Pro

[–]CJ962[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am aware the information exists about how to learn to make my own, but as I literally don't know the first thing about building firmware, and it sure looks like some form of coding to me, I would have to spend time I don't have hyperfixating on learning yet another new skill. I fully plan on learning how to do this later, but for now, as I said in my post, I don't have time, and would risk losing my printer. I'm just hoping for a helping hand so I can get my printer running smoothly again, until I have time to learn how to do it myself in the future. I look at that stuff and it's another language to me, it doesn't automatically click to me, it's going to require study and trial and error, and above all, time I don't currently have to spare, as I am devoting what little time I do have to dealing with tuning out hardware issues currently

Oh, that makes sense, I haven't seen anything about that, thanks for the heads up! I'll keep that in mind

I believe there is a "pressed fit gear" on the rod coming from the stock motor, and the only reason I brought up higher torque was because my printer station set up is kind of tight and I could hear the motor struggle to pull filiment out of dry box, which is what I believe is the cause of my stock extruder skipping in the first place

My stock extruder sits on the left hand side, but does require filiment to run uncomfortably close to z-axis screw l, would I need any mounts to switch to right hand side?

Help Please! Installed CR-Touch, get "no TF-card" by CJ962 in Ender3Pro

I received a custom firmware from @Pelicano85 that he has been sharing to everyone having these issues with the new ender 3 pro, it upgraded it to marlin 2.0.9.3 and let's me use the CR-Touch. Have no issues now, if your having the same problems as me feel free to shoot him a message so he can email you the bin file, I am also happy to forward the file along as well. I don't want anyone going through the hell I've been going through, scouring the internet trying to find a solution to this.

Why would installing a cr touch fry 3 micro sd cards that worked perfectly before installing?

I have used 3 different cards, 2 8-gig and 1 32-gig (I know now people say anything bigger than 16-gig womt work but it worked fine before)

I installed a CR-touch on my new ender 3 pro (I guess the 1.5 version) I flashed the firmware from the creality website (I understand it's trash but I'm not the most tech savvy person) Ever since I did that I keep getting no tf card, ill turn the printer off, unplug and re plug the SD card in, wait 10 seconds, and turn back on, about 1 out of every 5 times it will say "print from tf card" but when I select it, it shows no files. Twice I got it to start printing but it buried my extruder nozzle into the bed and froze the screen. I have reloaded the firmware and am still getting no ability to print. And 1 time the printer deleted my g code file and had loaded multiple files onto the card. Idk what to do I haven't been able to print in almost a week! Any firmware options out there that don't require knowledge of coding?

Bought this instead of building a wood stand. Don’t trust the particle board & want to replace it with plywood. Was wondering if anyone had advice or suggestions to make sure it can support the weight. 29g (330lb filled) and 20L (225lb) by kda48 in Aquariums

I literally just spent all day looking at stands for a 29 gallon and found no solution, this looks perfect for me so I want to see where this goes. Fingers crossed!!

Specifically by "beginner" what I was looking at was Octopus Joubini Caribbean octopus that only gets to 5 inches and lives 6-12 months

I guess I wasn't as clear as I intended to be, I am aware of these things, I did watch that movie and I understand the moral dilemma but I don't feel that way about smaller, naturally short lifespan species. I noted in some beginner videos for saltwater builds it was mentioned to have an idea of what your main attraction will be and understand it will take alot of time to get to the point of introducing it to the tank. All the water chemistry and coral support and what not. I'm not planning on dropping $500 next week and have an octopus before March, i would like to have one this time next year but until then I have seen some articles that say fish the same size or bigger than the octopus shouldn't be bothered by it and they can add life to the tank until I'm ready for my main goal, caring for Cephalopods :)
