@npub1yrl…8gpm I’d guess they do the same thing AliExpress does and palletize multiple orders and ship them in batches to local logistics partners.

@npub1yrl…8gpm I just put it on then cut the holes out with an exacto knife. I've never heard of a sticker that came with the holes punched already.

@npub1yrl…8gpm @npub12at…me5y I've had good luck with Prusament PC CF, but I've heard they changed the formula. The 3DXTech ezPC+CF is good. The only non-CF PC I've only ever used the Polymax PC and didn't care for it. I found it was very brittle and had poor impact resistance. This was a long time ago and my chamber temps might have been too low.

@npub1yrl…8gpm The CAD file appears to be step format.

@npub1yrl…8gpm @npub12at…me5y I don't really mind that personally. I'm ok with working from a CAD drawing.

@npub1yrl…8gpm Originally I believe the design was based around the Misumi post assembly t-nuts which are nice, but fabulously expensive: https://us.misumi-ec.com/vona2/detail/110302247910/. $53 for 100.

@npub1yrl…8gpm @npub12at…me5y I wasn't aware of those, but they look like the successor to Rama's idlers. Looks like he's stopped maintaining them: https://github.com/Ramalama2/Voron-2-Mods/tree/main/Front_Idlers

@npub1yrl…8gpm tolerances on the AliExpress t nuts are garbage in my experience. Sometimes I get a batch that work great and other times they’re hard to put in and impossible to get out. It also depends on the exact slot profile.

@npub1yrl…8gpm @npub12at…me5y Rama’s idlers give more x clearance and are generally well regarded. I did the mod so long ago that I have no recollection of how hard they are to assemble.

@npub1yrl…8gpm @npub12at…me5y Aww, it's trying so hard 🤣

@npub1yrl…8gpm Oh I see. I misunderstood where the bottleneck was.

@npub1yrl…8gpm Not sure I follow. USB-C PD can do up to 240W, although it's hard to find anything that does more than 140W so far.

@npub1yrl…8gpm @npub12at…me5y The sides are mostly solid with only two small holes for putting the end of the filament through. Seems wasteful and counter productive. Not a deal breaker, just a head scratcher.

@npub1yrl…8gpm @npub12at…me5y my experience was that it was “fine”. I got it because of the color selection also. I really hate their spools, but it’s not a deal breaker.

@npub1yrl…8gpm It's some sort of standard part. It's not custom to the kit or the printer.

@npub1yrl…8gpm The whole exhaust system idea is silly. I'd print a blank plate to cover it and ignore it.

2024-02-02 02:27:25

@npub1yrl…8gpm plastic parts are for the exhaust on the back of the printer, the front LCD display and the spool holder. The other part is a DIN rail mount for the SSR.

@npub1yrl…8gpm I've used WireViz and it's "ok”. It's not exactly that sort of diagram, but close. It's more focused on documenting and generating diagrams of wiring harnesses, not entire wiring systems: https://github.com/wireviz/WireViz

@npub1yrl…8gpm @npub12at…me5y I believe that is part of the reason. Some folks have also done direct drive for the Z with keybaks to keep the gantry to crashing. It makes the Z drives faster, but there was some recent evidence that it has much worse backlash.

@npub1yrl…8gpm @npub12at…me5y I believe Gates recommends one or the other depending on what side of the belt it'll be touching. i.e. toothed if it's touching the tooth side, and smooth if it's touching the back of the belt.

@npub1yrl…8gpm @npub12at…me5y I seem to recall folks preferring 20T idlers just because they have more space for bigger bearings, and so last longer.

@npub1yrl…8gpm it’s the name of the sensor in the config, not the pin, or the device if it’s a heater.

@npub1yrl…8gpm @npub12at…me5y I run with cooling at 100% for TPU, but that's probably going to be kind of printer specific.

@npub1yrl…8gpm @npub12at…me5y the overture high speed TPU is easy mode. I print at close to normal speeds. 15-20mm^3/s np. I’ve heard the poly maker high speed tpu is similar.
