Tim, nope thats just wrong. The belts and leadscrew accuracy should be close enough ( unless you have really crappy hardware ) to be within tolerances. The real issues as others have mentioned in the thread: 1) steps per mm for each axis based on hardware. Use the prusa calculator thats why he pr…

Chris, you should have no changes made to the x/y/z steps per millimeter values - those are/should be constant. If you are using GT2 belts for x/y and 16-tooth with 1/16 microstepping your steps/mm are 100 ( read up RepRap Calculator - Original Prusa 3D Printers ). If you are printing a circle patt…

Did you get this figured out? A few other possibility Printing too close to the bed Clog in the hot end Clogged extruder hob ( eg bits of plastic in between the teeth )

not sure how I can message directly from the forum. email is bilsch at gmail dot com. The google group for the columbus 3d printing meetup: Redirecting to Google Groups I’m also active on there. Other people on the group may also be interested and worthwhile.

rob, assuming you are in town today there is a 3d printing meetup tonight. http://www.columbusideafoundry.com/ The event starts around 7 and goes fairly late. I’m also happy to meet / talk. Another good contact would be ethan dicks
