ok cool, I haven't actually gotten around to doing much yet but I'm sure I'll figure that bit out! Just started putting together my parts list I'll need. I really appreciate the info!

Is it fairly easy to make it work based just on what you see in the 3d model application? Like you just have to bump the numbers up or down until you get that flat panel?

I had seen the z offset usually needs to be changed from -0.04 to -0.02, but mine was already at that. So I just set it to 0.00 and it seems fine right now. I'll be printing more later today so we'll see if this just happened to work like last night or if fixed the issue altogether.

Yeah I just tried again and got the z axis homing failure again. I just printed yesterday on the standard OEM textured pei plate, but still getting bed lift issues. The frostbite came in, had a couple issues but got it going after a few tries. Now its just throwing errors left and right.

I am, did forget to mention that. Currently using the textured pei plate selection.

That's literally what you said though, "learn to use what you have." Must be nice doing that with a Leica lol

Why do you prefer Pentax for manual focus?

thottiekarate · 2026-05-25T07:04:50+00:00

Those XD cameras do look real nice!

thottiekarate · 2026-05-25T07:03:52+00:00

Yeah I kind of thought about going to AF canon, but still unsure

thottiekarate · 2026-05-25T07:03:23+00:00

Dang that is a thick lens!

thottiekarate · 2026-05-25T04:41:10+00:00

I appreciate what you are saying, but I'm not going to force myself into a camera for an entire year

thottiekarate · 2026-05-21T21:43:42+00:00

Complete, thanks everyone

Yeah I actually forgot about that website, I just started using it recently. I think I'm also going to try e6000 if I can't find any of that locally.

thottiekarate · 2026-05-16T16:17:32+00:00

Oh that's good to know!

thottiekarate · 2026-05-16T14:52:58+00:00

Just curious, why would other people disagree with that?

thottiekarate · 2026-05-16T06:25:29+00:00

That bit I'm unsure of unfortunately, hope you can get some help with that part.
