not a photon FEP, but same lesson, NEVER brag about something, because life will find a way to make you pay for it ;) . Tore this up minutes after this video..

Imma throw this one at you guys, I cannot for the godamned life of me get this thing suportted. lololol, I can support the most intricate shit jewellery but this, has me defeated, primarily because of the size I want to print it, if can reduce the stl small enough ill upload it in files. its hollowed and two drain holes. maybe upside down, havent tried that yet..

QUESTION: FDM, Mods delete if too off topic, but figure its a good place to ask.

Hey, all you all.. my AnetA8 has given me 2 years of consistent good service, best 150 bucks I ever spent, probably 200 prints on it now, but, its tired.. have to replace parts every 3 prints lately or make awesome spaghetti monsters. ;) .. So I'm looking for a new FDM, 500 bucks budget, ABS capable in an enclosure with heated bed, should I just pick up another 3 Anets for that budget or is there something a bit better nowadays.

Thingiverse model: Roger from American Dad.

(not printed on photon, just a file post)

"Did you know I can fit 17 face cloths in my butt" - "Eww it dirty down here, wait, whats that, a face cloth.. yaaaay!"

Modelled in T-Splines in Matrix8, all SUBD froma single quadball, model on my thingiverse at link, hollowed with pressure holes.

Have fun printing my spirit animal!

Sen Kun , retardo FB wont let me upload the files to here, even if I zip or 7z them. I'll see if i can make some space on my GDrive. just cleaned up the code and added a few tweak, very basic, but, it works. (assuming the photon image output is the same from ChituBox)

Vinicius Silva , I'm still not on Github, but I'll post code/app to you in message if you want to add it yourself.

If you are using Chitubox and want to create a video of the frames. there are a few options around but all are messy or require spyware ridden "free" video editors, so i wrote one for myself quickly.

for c# devs the code is in first comment. read the Using's to see what has to be included in VS, code is c#, dirty AF , but, it works. alter the X,Y and compression ratio and framerate speed as required.

may be of interest, I write articles about several issue for jewellery magazines, this one touches on a repeat article from 6 years ago when I suggested jewellery capable printers would drop under 1000USD withing 10 years.. 6 years later.. photon 500USD.. BAM!.

going through my messages, heaps of "XXX wants to connect" messages about fixing the stepper coupler/mount eccentricity. I simply dont have time as I have many many messages from girls in my neighbourhood that want to connect with me and will show me "bobs and vagene" for just my credit card details.. priorities..

1. you probably don't need to do this, its more likely you have not leveled properly or your FEP is loose. you will know you need to do this, if no matter how much lube you add you have a persistent, regular grinding noise from machine even after tightening/loosening the travel chuck and/or you can visible see eccentric motion at the bottom of the lead screw.

2. To find out if you need to do this, buy a dial gauge, any CNC supplier, I have a few, I used the magnetic mount one and ran it against my lead screw, even for experienced machinists taking a reading from a lead screw is tricky because , well, its not a cylinder, its a screw. If you spent enough on your dial gauge (costs more than the photon), you can read max and min deviation from the edges of the rail.

3. If you are cheap (you bought a photon, the cheapest printer you could find, you ARE cheap, you pick flowers from the neighbors yard instead of buying for your wife, and you are reading this from a linux computer..), then you can simply rest a block against the lead screw and see if the block moves at all while turning the lead screw.

4. If you have eccentric motion, then, and ONLY then, remove the stepper and its coupler (the thingomajoozit that mounts the stepper to the photon. cover your screen, use a spindle (drillamajoozit) to open the holes in the photon by an additional 0.1mm (deviation was ~70um in mine) and remount loosely. hand tighten the bolts allowing some slip. spin the lead screw by software with your measuring tool in place. use a light object (i used the back of a kitchen knife) to tap left/right or front/back as required, until you have sub 10um deviation (read point about how hard it is to read deviation on a lead screw)

5. lock down screws another 1/4 turn, repeat point 4, most likely you moved it while tightening.. rinse repeat, then lock it down hard.

6. Bonus info: If your lead screw has yaw/pitch compared to the rail, raid your wife's pantry for aluminium foil, for the Americans, that is pronounced A as in cat, lew as in in lieu, mi as in me, ni as in the knights that say NI!, um as in yoom. Learn to pronounce it properly, you are butchering the queens English.
Now. assuming your lead screw is not bent (mine was, took a mallet to it, whole different measurement saga, worth checking before doing anything else from here on), measure the left and right extremes of the top of the lead screw to the left and right of the rail, loosen the rail assembly or the stepper, your choice, and fold some aluminium under the opposite side of the worst error, re-tighten, remeasure, add more or less AL until you get max deviation under 50um top to bottom.

HTH.

(all the CNC guys are going "ahhhh same as tramming a 4th axis, ya, kinda. )

May remember this print, did in maroon on the photon and grey on the phrozen. I also cnc cut to wax and cast, one of my guys at work liked it so much he took the STL and cut me a massive one in wood on his CNC!
