Greetings Chris; While I'm waiting for digi-key to send me some more ATS-667's to fix my GO704's lack of index, I thought I'd waste a bit of string on the 3d printer, and see if I can get it to make a block thats 25mm wide for xy and and tall. I am also slowly advancing the steps per mm on the extruder, and have arrived at a condition where the base layer is both solid, and laid down stuck really tight with a starting temp set of 215 and 70, so I've just now increased the nozzle clearance by one bump of the wheels for the next run. Still quite tight onto a sheet of catalog paper. But this past run got me a breakoff, leaving the 3 layer base still stuck, that was a hair over 25 tall but the breakoff 5 starter was still under 5. That tells me I should lower the build plate which I have now done by one bump of all 4 wheels and reduce the z feed by a fraction of a percent.
So how it this z tradeoff properly adjusted? I see on youtube, a fan nozzle that looks like an improvement by redirecting the cooling fan airflow more directly at the base of the nozzle. Where can I dl the files to make this, and the tooltray and the back cover for the control pcb? Thanks Chris.
