<p>This is a fully generated 3-D Printer made with OpenScad. Everything you need is in that one .scad file. Its your decision how you want to build it because of its parametric design. I reached a Workspace Area of 360x600x270mm (X/Y/Z). But its not that easy to build ;-)  </p>
<p>There is no Extruder at the moment because i use it for commercial selling plastic signs. Some accuracy examples are here:<br>
<a rel="nofollow" href="http://virtograv.de/Material/Referenzen/Schriftarten/">http://virtograv.de/Material/Referenzen/Schriftarten/</a><br>
If there is any interest, I would design an baseplate for mounting an extruder on the X-Axis-Carrier.   </p>
<p>All Information you need are written down by me at the following Link:<br>

            <description><![CDATA[RAMPS 1.4 Board / Skynet3D / Anet A8

So i recently learned that anytime a G28 command is ran, it resets any data it finds during a G29 autolevel command. Hence the need to run G29 autolevel after the last instance of G28 home all axes. However once i added G29 into my start script, i can't get it to function properly. And my z-axis just floats way above the bed and never lowers, even though i'm telling it to go to a certain z position.... I'm close but not cigar yet...

Gcode so far:

G28 ; home all axes
G29 ; level bed
G1 X0 Y0; 0 X and Y
G92 E0; reset extrusion distance
G1 Z1; lower Z to 1mm
G1 X10.0 Y10.0 Z0.3 F2000 ; Go to Prime Position
G1 X100.0 E20.0 F1000.0 ; prime
G1 X 110 Y110 F2000 ; Go to print area
G92 E0; reset extrusion distance

But my z-axis thinks its at 0.2 height like way up at it's safe stow height of 13.02 ( 10mm raise after autolevel and 3.02 z offset in firmware)

i tried to move the Z axis in my code with G1 Z1 but that didn't work. What could i be missing that is making the z axis float above the bed still?? it's like sometimes it works but minor changes seems to reset the Z position to 0 or something. You think a M851 Z13.02 command after autobed level would help since that's the height it is at after autobed level?]]></description>

<p>There are two versions, I found the first had too much surface area and would stick too well on my Prusa i3 Mk2 PEI base so I made it have legs instead.</p>
<p>Previously I used a tower I found on thingiverse but the base was so small the towers would fall over, hence this quick design :)</p>]]></description>

            <description><![CDATA[Usually a faster travel speed is better, but if you're already using a quite fast travel speed like 160mm/s or so even more usually doesn't help. The retraction speed is usually dependent on the properties of the PLA, just try some different values, 2mm at 35mm/s usually works for me with PLA.
I made this small test part https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2219103 because I found the existing ones too big, you could use it to find the best retraction settings without wasting too much time and filament.

Other important factors to avoid stringing are the extruder temperature (lower means less stringing but at some point the layer adhesion and other things get worse), the speed of the part cooling fan (if you have one, experiment with different speeds, what is helpful for bridges is usually bad to reduce stringing), overextrusion or a bad leveling of the print bed (when the nozzle scrapes material from the top layer along you get strings) and moist filament (the water evaporates so even if the extruder motor retracts, so filament oozes out of the nozzle causing strings, if you think you PLA is wet consider baking it for 4h at 50°C).]]></description>

            <description><![CDATA[heat also effects string, the better thing you can do is,  get to know the filament your using ( its melting point) the lower you can set it, the better you will keep stringing under control, which will help, slowing down prints will also help giving the time for proper retraction to take place. but that is all firmware related,  As far as retraction  speed goes, inwards retraction, can be as high as 45mms that doesn't not matter, its when you push the filament  back in you have to slow down as it has to re-melt the plastic to continue printing, 25mms to 30mm with a direct drive as u have, it should be fine with mk7/mk8 style extrude that you have on your  Bukobot V2.  you can always try going from 2 mm to 3 mm on the  length of the retraction, just be carful not to go to long as it my block you hotend cold zone. There is also an other trick that helps which is called coasting, if your slicer supports this, it will stop extruding  just long enough to let the extra pressure out of the nozzle to prevent blobbing and stringing.     ]]></description>

            <description><![CDATA[I know that more retraction (to an extent) will reducing stringing.  I was recently printing lattice cubes and I noticed more stringing than I usually get(I usually get none), which is to be expected with lattice cubes. So, my question is, what effect does print speed, especially travel speed, have on stringing?  Is faster better or worse?  Also, what about retraction speed?  My current retraction speed is 25mm/s, is that slow or fast?  My extruder is direct drive and I use 2mm of retraction and wipe while retracting, slicing is done with slice3r. My machine is a 4 year old rep rap machine and it prints great, just can't do many different materials.  Also, the lattice cube in question was printed with verbatim silver PLA @ 205 degrees C on a heated glass bed @ 65 degrees C (their PLA is awesome, it prints great!).]]></description>

            <title>Rolumix added 3D Printable Jet Engine, motorized to the RepRap Group</title>
            <link>https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2351087</link>
            <description><![CDATA[<a href="https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2351087"><img src="https://cdn.thingiverse.com/renders/b8/5d/0a/b1/7e/27182e996de9f9a80c32d70602f7a553_preview_large.jpg" alt="" class="render"  /></a> <p>This is a remix of the excellent 3D Printable Jet Engine by CATIAV5FTW.<br>
I modified various parts to incorporate an electric motor, to animate this wonderful model. </p>
<p>Print time of the set: 190 h 30 minutes.</p>
<p>Stay tuned with the details evolution by checking the Watch box.</p>
<p>06/07/2017<br>
Optimization of &quot;Coupleur_Moteur-arbre basse pression_V3&quot;.<br>
This set of 2 parts provides the connection between the electric motor and the low pressure shaft of the model.<br>
It allows a slight misalignment of the electric motor<br>
When the engine is stopped, it allows the low-pressure compressor to spin<br>
(People are curious and will turn the turbine by hand if you have your back turned)<br>
Without driving the geared motor, which is not necessarily reversible with a low torque.</p>
<p>06/09/2017<br>
The &quot;coupleur_moteurV3&quot; printed with PLA does not have the desired endurance yet.<br>
I reprinted it with the Colorfabb XT-CF20 and the result looks better.<br>
So I will test a 3mm V4 extension, with PLA to see if things<br>
always move in the right direction. I want to avoid the obligation to use something other than PLA for this part that gives me a hard time.<br>
It is also necessary to use PLA of very high quality, otherwise it breaks.</p>
<p>06/29/2017<br>
The model came back from the Paris Air Show. It operated autonomously (on batteries) more than 10 hours per day, for 7 days. 2 x 9V batteries ensure a minimum of 25 hours of operation at 1Hz. With all the batteries a minimum of 100 hours operating is OK.<br>
For the show, I installed a coupler V1, the model being in showcase and the V4 couplers not having the reliability that seemed to me necessary.</p>]]></description>
