V0 Maintenance fixes and Mainsail
Just had the opportunity, now that the V2.4 is working to undertake some repairs on the V0.
- Re-built the Z platform. Originally, the screws hold the two cantilevering 100mm extrusions were not tightened and so they were reassembled and also included a L bracket on both the top and bottom for added rigidity.
- Rebuilt the X gantry, as I was getting the wobbling idlers at either end, cause the printer to eventually fail. Hopefully, a fresh re-build and re-tighening of the belts resolves this issue.
- Changed from OctoPrint to Mainsail. So far, it seems to work well, I like the live Z adjust that was missing out of the box for OctoPrint.
- Installed the 0.6mm nozzle for 'fast prints'. Was able to get the Voron cube at 0.3mm layer height 100 mm/sec in around 30 mins, with good quality. This was the first print so needed to re-adjust the extrusion multiplier. I think I need to improve my part cooling to get crisper corners.
