Mark, do you have any location where you are recording your thoughts and receiving feedback on your OpenBuild's PhlatPrinter replacement? I just...
So what are you thinking of building from OpenBuilds?
With the new roller design, Mark has eliminated the need for adjustment on the roller height. SlowBipe
Thanks 3DMON. The first thing I did was to tighten up the Y Axis Belt. I get the jerking even with no load while just traversing the Y. SlowBipe
dcampbell, I believe I am getting the same results as you are. My Phlatprinter has been working fine for several months, but recently have been...
You definitely want the fish-tail and not the ball nose. Ball nose would work well for 3d milling a face. I like the 2 flutes much better as...
It also could just be that I think that I solved a problem that I never had. I guess I'll take a look at my GCode and see if they are any...
I cut a lot of holes in small wood parts like control horns. I have to bore a .198 diameter hole in control horn to slide over a carbon tube....
Now that I have passed the learning curve, and gotten all of the bugs worked out my Phlatprinter is working beautifully. I can cut light ply and...
I am finally uploading the Sketchup file for the Rigid R2400 Laminate Trimmer. It is not without problems. I was really new to the phlatprinter...
Toxic toast, I have found that you can only get 26.5 inches of cut in the width. and that is bumping the z gantry right up against each edge. I...
I agree with rcav. That learning thing got me over and over as well. The PP III is my first and I had a lot to learn. My x axis is as smooth as...
I put this motor on my x axis and am very happy with the results. I was skipping many steps on the motor while just cutting 1" dow foam at 80 ipm...
Ben, Early on I was havin a lot of trouble with my x axis. It missed steps even though it didn't seem like the belt could be slipping. I hav...
I have a question for anyone out there. I have most everything on my phlatprinter working perfect now, except for one thing. My feed rates don't...
I haven't done a lot of cutting with the 1.3mm EPP on my Phlatprinter III yet, but what I found is that the 1/16" diamond cut bit in the...
I also used the same motor in my .60 sized Hanger 9 Ultra Stick. In that plane I used a 15-8 propeller and a 6 cell pack. I think that amps were...
Ah! And now you have found the real joy in flying. It's not the balls to balls speed, but slow lumbering flight that seems to defy gravity. I...
Tim, Your plane looks awesome. You definitely learn a lot when you are building these giant sized foam planes. I used the same motor (Turnigy...
rcav8r, Thanks for the setting on your machine. My z seems to be working a lot better now that I have gotten my traverse rates at a more...
