Much modified Anet A8, the only things left of it are the motors, some of the wiring and the smooth rods for the z axis.

Got tired of the y axis smooth rods sticking on first move with ignus bearings and the noise with linear balls

Prints nicely at about 80mm/sec at 0.3 height with a 0.4 nozzle, non print moves @300mm/sec sits on a silicone 3mm sheet

Having problems printing faster, I'd like to get to 100mm/sec as it's a nice round number.

So next thing is a e3d volcano and a Bondtech style extruder (relying on a smooth bearing and spring tension just seems wrong to the engineer in me, things should just stop when they f**k up not grind flats )

Bed size is 220 x 275 x 300, and I print mostly with PETG

Hi

If you go to the RRF Configurator RRF Config
there is a config for ender 3 pro ready for you to tab through when you get to the endstops tab click the BLtouch to set it up
all the hard work has been done for you .

Here is a pic of how my bed is set up

Looks good,
one problem the mesh bed page will not let me go back to check my bed size just says "page still contains errors" and will not let me move off the page.

Some indication of what was in error would be good, the people who use this are likely to be beginners.

Just my 2 pence worth, reading this thread it is going to be of great benefit to some but make no difference to others.

From a practical perceptive it would be most useful to have S-curve available under an M-code, it could then be used per print.

I've used it on my Cartesian before I got my Duet (using Marlin2 and an MKS-Sbase) it does allow me to print faster at the same quality, Plus my desk didn't vibrate as much

However it did have those awful stepper drivers, so theres that.

I bought the gears and Printed my own,which I felt was more in the open source spirit.

Here is one, I'm after the same thing if possible.

I think he's read "Rule 34" - by Charles Stross, a dystopian near future novel involving 3Dprinting - it's a good read.

He abandoned it sometime after 2018 according to his wiki.
