    • Modified BLV cube

      I always enjoy reading about other people's printers, so I'll share mine I just finished.

      It's a BLV Cube with a full enclosure, 7" touchscreen connected to a Pi 4, heavily modified toolhead, and some cosmetic tweaks. Really a great design, but everything could always use some upgrades!

      Features/improvements from original design:

      • Precision Piezo Z-probe
      • Dual 5015 part cooling fans
      • V6 hotend with Bondtech direct-drive
      • 300x300 magnetic bed
      • Raspberry Pi with Duet 2 Ethernet
      • Lots(!) of LEDs

      Possible upgrades:

      • Watercooling for hotend and part cooling fans
      • Better bed (currently I have a cheap aluminum bed with integrated heater)
      • Toolchanger

      A little bit of history:

      This is my second printer build. I started out with a Printrbot, and designed my own printer using hardware from the Printrbot (just a standard CoreXY with linear rods, etc.). It worked quite well for about 5 years, with some significant hardware revisions and upgrades. I wanted to build a bigger and better one, using the significant lessons learned while building and upgrading, and I had some designs floating around in my head. I was originally planning on building it with V-slot, until I came across the BLV Cube, and loved it. From that stemmed this printer.

      Now for the good part: Pictures!

    • RE: [RRF 3.2-b3] [DUET2-SBC] Jerkiness during print moves

      @Phaedrux I have separate 5v and 24v power supplies with the grounds connected. The pi and the 5V_EXT pins of the duet are powered by the 5v supply, which is always on. The duet switches the 24v power supply via a relay.

      I believe that undervoltage event is due to me switching off the 24v supply once since the duet was last reset.

    • RE: Stringing problem with BMG direct drive and PLA

      Interesting. I use nearly the exact same settings as you do, but the main difference I think is the part cooling. You have a single fan blowing from one side, and I have two fans blowing from both sides at an angle. I think what may be happening is that there is turbulence where the two airstreams converge on my duct, and this causes the heat to build up. I might try redesigning my cooling duct so that the two airstreams are more aligned.

      Also, I really like your quick change toolhead. Very compact.

      @chrishamm All appears to be good. I'll update when the current print finishes.

      Update: Print finished successfully and with no unwanted artifacts. That seems to have solved it!

    • [3.2-RC1] Hotend heater fault with fan on

      Not sure if this is already known, but I think I have encountered a bug. On the first couple layers of a small object, the temperature setpoint changes, and the fan turns on to 100%, according to my slicer settings. However, the hotend struggles to keep up, and faults with "temperature rising too slowly". I do have a pretty powerful fan, but I'm also using a block sock. This is with a v6 hotend. I did tune with the new algorithm using M303 T0 S245, which did activate the fan.

    • RE: [RRF 3.2-b3] [DUET2-SBC] Jerkiness during print moves

      Alright, I've managed to capture a DCS log of an affected print. It seems like an underrun of the movement buffer, but it also happens sometimes in the middle of travel moves, so I'm not really sure there.

      dsf_log.txt

      Also, a picture to better show what I mean.

      All those little blobs are what I'm talking about. They're caused by the print head dwelling for a bit at that location.

    • RE: [RRF 3.2-b3] [DUET2-SBC] Jerkiness during print moves

      @oozeBot @TypQxQ No, what I am describing is different. I can only describe it almost like if your jerk is set too low on curved segments, only that it happens randomly and not only on curves, if that makes any sense.. It doesn't loose steps, but it's as if the controller hangs for a bit. I'll see if I can get a video.

      I think what you both are experiencing is similar, and I have also experienced it way back on 3.1.1. If my travel speed was too high, it would loose steps exactly as in your videos. Haven't tried it without compensation, I should try that.

    • RE: [RRF 3.2-b3] [DUET2-SBC] Jerkiness during print moves

      I can confirm that this does NOT occur in standalone mode. I have tested the same file in SBC mode and in standalone mode and get no jerkiness in standalone.

      @dc42 @chrishamm anything else I can do to help?

      Edit: DCS log coming soon

    • [RRF 3.2-b3] [DUET2-SBC] Jerkiness during print moves

      Sorry to bring this back up, but after updating to RRF 3.2-b3 I am still observing unwanted jerkiness during print moves. As the print head is moving, it stops for about 50ms at a time randomly, occurring roughly 1-2 times/10s. M122 shows no unusual information:

      Just to add another data point, I have also experienced this same behavior. However, I am running a duet 2, also on corexy.

      I have experienced this exact behavior. The print head jerks, almost as if it's skipping a step multiple times mid-print. I am running a duet 2 with SBC on a corexy machine with rrf 3.2-b2 as well.
