Last night, I was able to run a full dry run, and it “looks” like everything printed right. Tonight, I’ll power it up, verify the extruder and try a live run. Admittedly, I dosed the threads with a boat load of bike chain lube, but as I’ve types before, I’m not super worried about the damage I do. Since I need to order parts for other things anyway, I’ll probably get some bearings (to replace the one I thrashed) and belts (to something something something) while I’m at it.
Peter's stuff.
