Does the DHL tracking system show where the package is actually located? Their exception messages leave a lot of info out. Would be nice to know if it actually cleared customs in the US and is in your local area. My MK3 took two weeks for DHL to deliver it. Most of the time stuck in the customs office but with exception messages that made it seem it coming tomorrow. |

Yes, it came from Harrisburg. I did receive it today. |

I've been racking my brain on and off all day while and work and I believe your first point is my problem if one exists. Getting the belt into the holders is a PITA! I thought mine were seated all the way, but I'm going to double check tonight. |
3d printer for rc parts After this, I’m so happy with my new Creality, 6 bolts was the scope of my build for 299, and hasn’t failed yet. First parts I did were the VS4 braces. In HTPLA Hang up and Drive |
Re: 3d printer for rc parts Quote:
I'm willing to deal with a small headache or two during the built in order to end up with the print quality and reliability the Prusas are known for. And if I do have an issue their customer service is known for being as good as it gets. I'm still confident I made the right decision. |

Yay! That’s awesome. Now let’s see some cool parts!!! What did you think of the build? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |
Re: 3d printer for rc parts Quote:
Looking good. How did the self test go for skew and belt tension? |
Re: 3d printer for rc parts Quote:

Re: 3d printer for rc parts Quote:
The skew is part of the XYZ calibration test results. Menu path to see it on the LCD: [Support] [XYZ calibration detail] The Belt status is part of the self-test. Menu path to see it on the LCD: [Support] [Belt status] |
Re: 3d printer for rc parts Quote:
Left: 0.12 degrees Severe skew: 0.25 degrees Belt status X: 258 Y: 275 What’s that all mean? |
Re: 3d printer for rc parts Quote:
0.06 is good. Link to more details: https://help.prusa3d.com/article/PBl...ration-details The belt status is an indirect measure of how tight the belts are. It is actually how much current the stepper driver needs to move the axis. It is a relative number ( no specific units) Prusa states the ok range is between 300 to 240. (lower number means tighter) However, most people find between 280 to 270 the ideal range. Your x-axis tension may be a little tight. Remember for future troubleshooting on a printer with lots of hours, the belt status number being low can also be a bearing that is not moving smoothly. Hope this all helps. Let me know if you have more questions. |

First print without doing anything other than setting the Z height. I did have problems getting PLA to stick to the textured plate so I switched to smooth/steel and my current Z height is at -.500 which seems high compared to Josef's recommendation of -1.000 on his YouTube video. http://i.imgur.com/e0mmCIJh.jpg http://i.imgur.com/KmaCc9mh.jpg |
Re: 3d printer for rc parts Quote:
Your Pinda probe is set just a little bit too low, that can cause some issues down the road. I would try raising it a thread and then rerun the first layer calibration. A good range is between -.750 and -1.0 for the smooth sheets. My mine are running about -.800 for the smooth sheets and -1.1 for the textured sheets. |
Re: 3d printer for rc parts Quote:
What issues can a low PINDA cause? |
Re: 3d printer for rc parts Quote:
The symptoms of too low or too high pinda probe is having the first level calibration just change for no reason or having the nozzle take a hard dive into the bed. This is due to the detection accuracy of the pinda probe not being linear. It is most accurate at the center of of the detection range (around -1,0 and is less accurate at the ends (0.0 and -2.5). This is why Prusa recommends around -1.0 for the Pinda adjustment. |
Re: 3d printer for rc parts I'm having another strange issue with my Prusa i3 MK3S. It seems to have suddenly went out of calibration. The first later lines were way too far apart. I did a First layer calibration and that was fine. I think did a Selftest and that's when I got this error. Any ideas? http://i.imgur.com/WNO1YDxh.jpg Belt status seems good. http://i.imgur.com/ICxWBvSh.jpg Current run time stats: http://i.imgur.com/9mhCNJAh.jpg |
