Hey y’all, I managed to hack together a printer from scratch and I’m struggling to get it to print well. It’s a CoreXY system that’s being controlled by a Octopus 1.1. Dual z screws, the works.
I have it moving under it’s own power and all. It’s able to actually print, but the results are atrocious.
I’m just trying to diagnose what’s wrong here.
The bottom/first layer actually looks kinda good. It’s just completely shredding subsequent layers.
Any advice would be appreciated!
You z-step might be off. I.e. z is moving too far each layer.
I realize I’m reviving a super old post here, but I actually did end up figuring out what it was. I posted a little writeup in here if you’re at all curious. You were actually kinda close.
