@threeque No, I thought I had but it seems to only be with the prusa x ends. I think it's going too fast doing the fill and the belt is skipping. I tightened the belt and tried again and it skipped again. I'm going to make some skienforge changes and only use 1 wall with a lower infill.
hey john ,nice with a update ... and may i say your printing have gotten alot better and it was good to begin with. i myself have started printede kinda Ok parts, its getting better all the time, im working on temp setting most, but after this video im considering new belts for the child that im finishing soon, maybe tonight :)
@RalphInRalphWorld actually on the machine is about $800. The real cost came from trial and error with different vendors and parts. All of which are documented in these videos. Now that I have the right set up getting others on the right path is easy since they can learn from my mistakes.
Whatever happened to your BotMill kit? You have said previously that you were going to build a second machine is that still in the works?

I'm in the same boat as kennethmysterio and I was wondering what belt did you upgrade to and gear?

@Iloveamy11 These are GT2 belts and pulleys from sdp-si they work great.

Looks really good. Did you figure out what caused the step skipping?

I've been following your progress for a while now, and my, has your printer improved! How much have you spent on the printer so far?
