This is the one I used and no problems of course I had to modify the steps for GT2 Belts and new Bulldog extruder, and make sure you use Arduino version 1.5.7 to upload, that seems the be the only...

Looking very good there Bolson! Cant wait to get mine!!!!!!

Yep Bolson you read right... 5mm retraction.... and that gives me minimal stringing, more like very fine spider webs, if I go below 4mm retract then every move has a thick spider web, any lower and...

With Ramps, is it straightforward to reassign the pins etc??? or is rumba going to accept the Marlin code right away ie is Rumba Plug and Play and is Ramps something that needs fiddling and code...

Sounds like Rumba is the way to go then.... my layer shifts are very well defined segments for example there will be a 4mm thick slice that is slightly offset then it will return to what is "normal"...

Just a quick update, my e3d settings settled down to 5mm retraction..... yes its alot, but minimal stringing and ridiculously accucrate and fine extrusion bead, I printed the terminator head and I...

Hey Bolson, would you be able to take some "highly" detailed pictures of the mechanicals etc of the printer just so we can see what the differences are and if it would be worthwhile actually...

I think there are 3 for the bed and is it 2 (or 4) for the X wing????? Either way I ordered ALOT more, they have met the price break point for the cheapest price so I ordered alot for myself to...

I was wondering if it was too late to ask if 6mm and 12mm bearings will be available?.. or have I missed he cut off lol...

Ok, finally, after much time, here is the E3D V6 Bowden Setup printing the thin walled calibration cube, that worked out well.... on the next chunky solid calibration print I encountered my oozing...

Ok, just put my pre-order in...hopefully just in time!

Ok, heres is the major upgrade with the latest and hopefully last version of printed parts (fingers crossed) for the E3D Bowden Setup, all done on tinkercad, I got everything pretty darn close to the...

No problem, just have to work out how many of each I will want..

How long before this pre order closes? I might get some for my x wing slider....

Slowly working on a mount to get the E3D V6 Bowden setup located accordingly to minimize Z and Y axis losses.... still a work in progress, will have to add a mount for a fan to cool the workpiece,...

Thanks for everyones suggestions, I notice alot of mention about the retract distance, but does anyone have info about the actual default accel speed that appears in the firmware, my one is set to:
...

Oozing and blobs here and there, not really sure if I am understanding how to calculate the speeds and retract rates etc - if there is a basic set of numbers to start with that would help.

Hi all, just wondering if anyone can recommend retract settings for the E3D V6 bowden setup?

Thanks in advance!

Hi Rob, which version of the UNO do you have?

There are 2 versions out there that have different hardware USB chipsets installed, the original one has the FTDI chipset which horus will auto...

Looking very good there SIMPAD17, I havnt had time to fiddle with my scanner all week so will try it out tomorrow.

Looks like I have to check my settings as well .... thats looking pretty good now...

Wow looking incredibly good! Looks like it may well be lighting causing some of our problems....

Hmm... best to check your modified firmware, again I am pretty sure it is setup for 16 microsteps, but I cant for the life of me remember where I read the specs for that....

Hey Milstream, thanks for that part there, very handy indeed!

SIMPAD17, what specs does your stepper motor have? I am pretty sure that with an A4988 driver you are supposed to get 16 microsteps...

Apologies for not replying sooner, I think I have to play with ambient light settings now, I have mine set to low which shows the checker pattern nice and clear like it is in daylight and if I go to...
