    Inconsistent Filament Extrusion

    Hello! Just my two cents... I've seen stuff like that happen myself, and generally it had to do with the filament. Do you happen to have another roll of filament you can try? What temperature are you extruding at? Something else I have done is raise the Z axis up about 30mm or so using the...

    Meet Phat Freddy

    Very awesome, good job! I am interested in the auto-leveling mod too. I have a 1.5 XT, dual extruder, and it is a PAIN to get level. I swear my bed is not level... always some spots where things don't stick and others where it seems to be REALLY stuck to the bed. Sanded things down a bit...

    This is very cool! I am not sure how it actually levels the bed though... I understand the principle of the switch to detect the position of the bed, but how does the bed actually become level? Does the firmware adjust for the inconsistencies, thus not actually leveling the bed but just...

    E3D Cyclops/Chimera

    Did you guys get these working? I've been thinking about a cyclops for my gMax 1.5 XT, but I don't think I'd have the skills to make the carrier mods that it would require.

    Elastomeric ("rubber") Filaments

    Awesome mod to get Ninjaflex to work! Has anyone tried Semiflex? Will it have the same problem? I have ordered some and plan on giving it a shot, would like to use my gMax instead of my other printer if at all possible.

    Bed leveling/adhesion tips and tricks

    Hello! Excellent post/instructions, however it doesn't address dual extruder setups. Just from experience, it is a challenge to get the bed level with both nozzles, and I have spent a lot of time chasing my tail getting the bed level with both of them. Right now as it sits, for the most part...
