    Gmax 1.5 to 1.5+ Upgrade Troubles

    I wish I could help. I'm in a similar boat. I have an original kickstarter model 1.0 that i have upgraded to something like a 1.5+. it really is a hodge podge. My original small screen has sh*t the bed. I got a Full Graphic display as a replacement. But now what ever firmware I use it either...

    Y-Axis Pulley Too Low

    @dreadfull sorry SW is a Parasolid-based solid modeler and uses a exact boundary representation. Not a polygon mesh. STL "Stereo lithograph" was created in the 80s and uses a polygon mesh to only represent a surface of an object. PS your machining vendors don't import those files into their...

    Y-Axis Pulley Too Low

    @dreadful The STL file format will soon die. Its an eventuality. There are many patches for modern 3d modeling programs to use STL but most have major limitations. Have you had any luck with SW "scan to 3d" with an STL? im running SW 2014 pro and had minor luck not major yet.

    Y-Axis Pulley Too Low

    Had this problem since day one. The belt rubs either the extrusion or y axis mounting plate. I would love to see the stepper and pully assembly rotated 90 degrees. I just haven't had time to model it up yet. I use Solidworks so a stl file isn't very helpfull.

    Misumi Promo

    Slicer Profiles

    Yeah I was afraid it was that easy. I tried that already and I found out my Z was not repeating. Printed out the new Z limit switch mount (thanks Gordon) and during the install noticed the switch was damaged. Just waiting on replacement now. Thanks Raykholo
