Now i’m curious. Was it just a lot of dust and dried Inc. or what else was in them?

Instructions unclear, I’ve given the whole printer a bath and now all it does is blow bubbles

Thank you! I’ll take a peak at it!

Thank you! Its the perfect size for things like this

I appreciate the info! I’ll be honest, I understand wiring and hardware but I get out of my depth once we start getting into firmware and software.

I’m thanking my lucky stars that Octoprint was as easy as it was. That being said, if that open source ams makes any progress, I might just reach out since it seems like klipper is the only thing it’ll work with. If you don’t mind, I may reach out when I get the courage up to give it a shot.

Thank you!

I have a pi 4b running octoprint hooked up. Is there any advantage to going the klipper route?

In theory it shouldn’t mater if i use 4.2.2 firmware on the 4.2.7 board right?

Thank you for the tip! I just checked, it looks like it was disabled so that wasn’t my issue. I wonder why it was causing you issues though

It is PETG. That’s good to know. I’ve got a few more prints on the docket so switch to gyroid and see how that goes. Thanks for the tip!

Thanks for the other tips. I’ve tried a cold pole with the last filament to see if we could get anything out of there and I think we should be good, but you never really know.

As far as the rest of it, it seems to be happening with every filament I slice in Prusa slicer.

This was a brand new filament I had opened from Micro Center, it’s just their generic inland filament and it looks like the humidity in my dry box is about 16% after running it through my dryer. Maybe it’s too dry lol.

To be honest, I didn’t think about replacing the nozzle that’s probably a good idea. I got this printer from an auction site used so I can only imagine it’s the original nozzle from who knows how long ago

I’m considering an a change at point as well. The v2 has been great but finicky is a perfect description. Any reason you were thinking Bambo Labs instead of a Prusa?

Of course! This should be the original link. I think my issue was slightly different, but hopefully this helps. My stepper motors were over heating and skipping steps. If it looks like that might solve your issue, this article helped with my ender 3

Thank you! I appreciate it!

Thank you, i’ll do some digging!

Oh man, you should have seen me looking for the HDMI ports. I was very confused until I realized my mistake. Turns out that there’s more than one kind, who knew🤷

I’ll have to give that camera connection a second look lol

I just picked up a pi4 b today and was tinkering with octoprint.

So far it looks great, i just haven’t figured out how to get the pi camera module 3 working quite yet. The stream from octoprint just constantly tries to load.

I’m excited to try some prints with it soon!

No, that’s a new one.

Would greasing my gantry screw help?

If I’m missing steps due to heat is the only solution a new motherboard?

I have! This printer actually finished a 3ft sailboat rudder before this print. I popped some pictures of it in as well

Do you think that could be be solved by adjusting the z offset?

Thanks for the tip! I’ve been hesitant to start messing around to much but I think it should if it means it’s more reliable

I’ve been looking at this for a while. The camera I have on it is a security camera that i put on my desk while it prints if I’m gone.

Do you think its worth pulling the trigger on a raspberry pie to get this set up?

I have a quintuple-A bridge I’d like to sell this guy
