Hello SoCal

Hello from socal. Didnt really see anyone else from socal just a couple from northern cali. So hello!

 

Tstark, very close to placing my order for a Robo+ so I've signed into this forum to see what the community is like. I too am in socal, San Juan Capistrano, where might you be? Any problems with your plus yet?

 

you wont be disappointed, I am in Menifee/Murrieta/Temecula area, so over ortega highway.

 

yep expect to pull your hair out with any 3d Printer.

At least this one has a really good forum with helpful people.

I got rid of my more expensive printers for two robo's.. I like them.

 

Their is no really massive problems with the ROBO R1 Plus for me!

 

Thanks Guys! Robo sits behind me now and I'm doing my first prints. So far it's been going well though I think I might have a problem with my y-axis home position. Off to the search bar to see what can be done....

 

Unfortunately I will have to say that but there are reasons for my madness. First, on my machine the lines on the bed align perfectly with the heated area so it seems to me that this would be where I will get the most consistent heat from the elements underneath the glass. Outside this area relies on the heat conducting and thus it's subject to whatever radiant cooling might occur. I am a newbie so this thermal difference could be a total non-issue on prints that extend beyond the heated area, I don't know. Second, it just seems to make things easier for me that the image I see in Matter Control "somewhat" represents where the part prints on the bed. I'm currently using the glue stick method and, based on the MC image glued the bed area that a longer part would print on. However, once the print started, the back portion of the part was well beyond the area I had "glued" and the part didn't stick to the bed in this area causing me to cancel the print.

Did the adjustment to the y-axis discussed in another post and have restarted the print. Everything has definitely shifted forward appropriately, into the "heated area" and, more importantly, onto the area I glued.

 

I have a clogging and addhesion problem amost fish but this happen 3 months after purchase, just bad luck with this week
