With Thanksgiving at the end of November and Christmas time upon us, I haven’t had time to give an update. So it has been a while since I last posted an entry, so I thought I should give a quick update. I still don’t have things sorted out completely with the 3D printer, but I am getting closer. I was able to print a few calibration items.
I printed a calibration cube, but it was a bit too tall. So I had to calibrate the Z axis again. My next try was pretty much close to what it should have been. Here is a picture of the two prints. On the left is the second try.
There are still some major issues that need to be fixed, like having the filament at times form a blob of string around the hot end. Oh well, I will solve that in time.
