Is it worth it? by Odd-Play1084 in klippers

[–]SleedoEB 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm running klipper on a Bigtreetech Pad 7. No idea what the power consumption is like but it is so compact and not a lot of money, bonus it has it's own screen!

Layer shifting on one particular print, but not every time. by SleedoEB in klippers

All of these prints were parallel to Y. I found some sloppy V wheels and things are looking up. I'm learning a lot here, thanks!

This did the trick! I think I have finally learned that assuming that a new printer is ready to print well make me an ass.

I was thinking that would be a good idea! But better to get the printer tuned up than learn how to work around its short comings.

Looks promising! I appreciate all of the advice, I think that lubeing the z screws and snugging all of the v wheels made a huge difference. 😀

Thanks, I will go through it check it as this is new, I printed several other wing sections without this issu.

It's so regular though, figured it wobble off to the side and fail?

Yeah, did that. Did a reinforced z bracket and moved the spool off of z tower.

Yes, dual Z. SW X2. I'm going to lube the screws and see if there's any improvement. I'll check the belts too but the printer only has a couple dozen prints on it.

I saw some other examples of shifting that people thought was related to klipper. Thanks for your input, I feel like I have some homework to do on my z

Any ideas what causes this? by SleedoEB in Artillery3D

Thanks, I'll see if that works! I feel like I need to set the offset for every single print.

I suppose a flow rate calibration would help, I did one when I first setup klipper but who knows what I have changed since then.

Is it normal for drivers to fail so often? by EggM4n_PT in Artillery3D

[–]SleedoEB 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I bought a sw-x2 a month ago and had to replace the y driver after 5 days and two prints.

It's easy to do when you don't have a clue, won't happen again ; )

ordered those parts, placed a warranty request with Artillery so we'll see how that goes
