  • I’ve got a Christmas Huxley sitting next to me running Marlin on a Sanguinololu right now. It’s not the most recent version, but I can send you the config file. This won’t have the correct settings for your printer, but might help you get started.

  • I’m going to go over this from the start - apologies if this is a little simplistic. I’m also assuming you’re using Windows. Prerequisites: you will need the Arduino IDE (IDE means Integrated Development Environment) installed first, which you can get from here: https://www.arduino.cc/en/Main/Softw…

  • You need python installed, on your path and associated with “.py” files, so that python starts when you double-click on the configtool.py file. Where did you get the version of python you installed? If python is at least on your path, open a command prompt and navigate to the directory where you ex…

  • It sounds like using Slic3r’s vase mode would be a better bet for this type of print.

  • I’d agree with the others that the most likely cause of the inconsistencies in feed rates is caused by inconsistent filament diameter. Where the blockage is concerned, it may also be that the filament gets too wide and jams, but I’d also look to heat creep as a possible culprit. You’re printing at a…

  • Printing something so large would be fairly expensive, plus it would be difficult to find someone who could print the lengths in a single piece. You would most likely end up with multiple shorter sections you’d need to join together. Have you thought of something like the cable protectors you use t…

  • You’re looking for something with a periodic oscillation and the extruder’s the most likely culprit. You can do a visual inspection by releasing the guidler and removing the filament so you can view the hobbed bolt/gear. Set the temp of the hot end and get the extruder to extrude 100mm (without fila…

  • If it were an extrusion problem, this would happen if your seams were lined up (each layer starts in the same place), but would not appear to be so regular if each layer started in a random location. In the pictured print, does each layer start in the same location? If so, try another print with ran…
