    Upgrade Kits are Not Available (gCreate's Official Position)

    Re: Upgrade Kits are Not Available (gCreate's Official Posit Well looks like I have to design my own bed plate. Wish the excitement of knowing Gordon cared about his customers/backers was still there but it is all beyond faded.

    Gmax 1.5+ files

    Thank you for voicing your opinion hopefully together we can either get some traction or at least a timely response.

    Gmax 1.5+ files

    I realize that you don't want to hand out the plans to your machine to everyone due to your success in printer sales but I can't help that this was a team effort between you AND your Kickstarter backers. I do feel let down in the fact that you are stopping support for people like me who helped...

    Gmax 1.5+ files

    The files are currently available but the bed plate file is not for those looking.

    I am also patiently waiting. Can you at least give us a time frame on the files?

    slic3r dual extruder configuration

    I ended up turning down the PID max setting from 255 to 170. I now have a max of 1.5°c in either direction.

    slic3r dual extruder configuration

    There was no MINTEMP error but the drop in temperature made the extruder start to click because it can't force the filament through the nozzle.

    slic3r dual extruder configuration

    My range varies from 192 to 209 per autotune cycle. This is frustrating.

    slic3r dual extruder configuration

    Print temp drops to 186 from the set 200 with no fans on that might cool down the nozzle. There is the stock fan that cools the heatsink but it's on regardless. edit: 650w PSU with three 12v rails at 22a each is what I'm using.

    slic3r dual extruder configuration

    Yeah, I have done exactly that and it wasn't working well. Would there be different tuning parameters with one nozzle already hot or heating concurrently? Edit: Current settings #define DEFAULT_Kp 10.00 #define DEFAULT_Ki 0.26 #define DEFAULT_Kd 97.75

    gMax 1.5 and XL

    How hard would it be or orient the keystone 90 degrees in a manner where the punchdown would be facing you in the picture you posted? (facing away from front of extruder assembly) Using the blue and black variety keystone that is.

    Z resonance

    Figured it out. The bottoms of my z rods were hitting the edge of the holes of the lower left and lower right z bracket from the 1.5 set of parts. My Z rods also have a slight bend in the bottom which is what is causing it to hit.

    Acrylic piece under bed

    I am talking spacing the wheels out further in the y direction, not X. This will give you less bed shake with fast moves. Also having the v rails from 1.0, they are longer than the 1.5 ones and the acrylic pieces underneath can be at least 2 inches longer giving you even more stability.

    Acrylic piece under bed

    After looking over my build and the updated 1.5 pictures. I think the acrylic pieces could be longer in the Y direction for more stability.
