  • Your towers are not parallel and/or your arms are not all the same length. There’s a pretty good chance, the way you illustrated the error is flawed. Your picture sort of seems more like layer-shifting. Do you have any pictures of actual prints?

  • Yes, agreed. And I stated, either bad construction OR off-spec parts. While you are correct, that improper configuration will print anything wrong. However, it’s so much easier to identify specifically what’s wrong using a calibration part oriented around showing deviations aligned with each tower.…

  • A cube won’t tell you much about the triangular construction of the printer. Re-print a prism shaped object. It doesn’t have to be a solid prism. I saw floating around the internet an excellent test print for checking delta geometry. Basically though, the only reason a delta would show a problem li…

  • I’m finding that selecting printers is quite troublesome. In part, the decision appears to be for preventing fraud on the parts of the hubs. I soon will have some rather large custom build sized printers. But, no way to tell the customer that. Really, what I am more concerned with, is being able t…

  • How do I redact my hub from the celebrations before being posted? I won’t have the ability to host now.

  • Auto-leveling Z is a bit of a misnomer on Delta Printers. Your issues will be manyfold more than “auto leveling the bed.” Most of the time, when a delta printer “auto levels” it actually is probing 15-30 points on the bed to create a plane grid for which it can compensate in mechanical imperfection…

  • Very nice!

  • Good morning there! How would I go about demoing these new features? I took a peek at the hub options and I don’t appear to have any new pricing options on my dropdown lists for filaments. I also don’t have any new orders currently to take a look at potential changes to the volumetric pricing.

  • I used usps. $6 shipping. Tacked that cost on to the order and they happily payed it.

  • Yeah, that’s what I ended up using. However, as noted: The hand pictured is the new v5. It has a few minor differences.

  • Yes, we need to be able to manually enter values. Basically, all of my prints I end up manually reorienting and building support. So, an automated “support cost estimator.” Wouldn’t be super accurate either.

  • Yikes. That’s a nasty model to try to print on a FDM printer. If I measured right, those holes are only 5mm across? I’d rotate it 90 degrees so that the fins all print upright. Depending on the quality the customer selected, they can’t expect all the holes to be perfect. Unless they also payed you …

  • Cool, thanks. One feature I’d still like is to be able to offer “rush processing.” Right now, I just list my printers as multiples. Some with smaller lead-times but higher startup prices. Also, it is often confusing for people when I tack on fee for “parts cleanup.” We should have “additional servi…
