This Episodes Questions:
Hey guys! Long time listener, first time caller!
I recently took home an old(ish) Fusion3 F410. (Our department at work wanted to get rid of it.) We also have a Raise3d Pro3, BambuLab X1C and X1E, so this thing is a real pain to use in comparison. About the only good thing it has going for it is the big build volume (355x355x315), other than that there are a couple of annoyances:
- Glass build plate
- Auto bed-leveling is hit or miss. It only probes the 4 corners where aluminum tape is used for conductivity.
- Reaaally long Bowden tube setup
- Weird kevlar string used for the X-Y motion system.. but I guess it works.
- Old Duet2 board and RepRap software
- Discontinued by Fusion3
I volunteered to take it home because I have some ideas! I want to see if I can breath new life into it with some mods:
- Magnetic PEI build plate
- Direct-drive extruder on the toolhead
- BigTreeTech control board and Klipper
Do you guys have any suggestions on how to get the above mods done? I'm not too familiar with Voron printers, but I wonder how much I can pull from their large-format printers as far as parts, electronics used, etc. I can design/print custom part solutions if needed, and have access to sheet metal for the bed. I also have some experience with Klipper, and I think getting that properly configured will be an undertaking on its own.
Thanks! Matt
Hi guys,I recently stumbled over your podcast and really like the bandwidth of topics you guys talk about! Currently I own 2x K1 Max but will soon replace 1 of them by a K2 Plus. You guys are talking a lot about creating your own configuration settings for materials and such.
I would really like to know how should someone approach this systematically. Let's imagine I have Creality print 5.1 ;-) which is splitting all settings on one side to a Filament setting and on the other side to the different layer height configurations.
Lately I had a standard PLA - which caused problems - and ended up by changing the temperature in the Filament settings and the max speed in the layer height configuration. This solved the problem but I will never have just one setting to load for this material.
So now there are actually two questions:
- How to approach a perfect setting for a material (and height) systematically?
- Any tips and tricks for Creality Print 5.1 on how to manage multiple settings?
Thanks a lot and keep up the good work!
