OpenSCAD - Fusion3 F410 Pulley Retainer
I asked on Twitter (@la3dpr) if this might be interesting and someone said "maybe!" and I appreciate that kind of encouragement, so here we go.
I basically exclusively model in OpenSCAD and I've got a decent library of projects under my belt, it's not a "popular" tool, but it's one I've got some experience with.
As always, thanks for watching!

Prusa MK3S Heat Creep PTFE Swap
Переглядів 24 тис.4 роки тому
Filament *really* stuck, you may be dealing with the effects of heat creep - when the printer is shut off while hot and molten filament hardens in the PTFE throat in the cold-side of the hotend. Herein I will describe and demonstrate the procedure for swapping the PTFE liner in your hotend with a spare. Don't switch off your machine hot, ever; and this wont happen to you!

    Sadly I cannot get the thermistor wire out of the ensi board. I contacted Prusa support and they suggested various ways to do so (needlenose plier). Eventually the safety clip sort of got stripped and now I have no clue how I'll get it out. Any advice?

    • @LA3DPrinterRepair
      @LA3DPrinterRepair День тому

      I’d probably need to see a pic; send me a text. If you pull hard enough the whole header will slip off the soldered pins on the board and you can just pop it back on, no harm done. The thermistor “signal” is not polarized even if you did get it flipped around on reinstall it wouldn’t cause a problem.

    Thank you, this video saved me from panic disassembling the extruder! I totally forgot there were multiple hex keys in the assembly package and tried to fit in the one which I uses to loosen the extruder door. Luckily I was not forcing it too much, I could have break something. The smallest one fits. Since I was using PETG previously, I heated up the extruder to the preset for PC filament and with some force pushed the key into the tube. I actually didn't notice it going any further, but it did the trick because once I reasembled it, the gear could finally push the new filament into the hotend.

    Great video, I'm new to Prusa stuff. I bought a used mk3s+(supposedly) and it came with an MMU2S. It's working fine for single colors and I did not know the Prusa slicing software can stop in the middle of a print so you can change colors, that's super cool. How can I tell if the MMu2s is actually a 2s? Also Your setup has an ir sensor contraption sitting on top of the extruder. Does that come with the MMu2s? mine doesn't have that. What exactly is that part called so I can try to find one, since it looks like it's needed for reliable operation. Thank you for any information.

    Thanks for this! One thing I'd like to add (at least in my case): double check the gear held onto the extruder motor - the grub screw on mine was loose and I likely wouldn't have noticed except the gear slipped off the end of the motor shaft while i was removing the motor. Good time to check/realign/tighten the gear while it's this far disassembled.

    Great video! Quick question... Did anyone get a printed manual/assembly instruction book with their MMU2? Mine didn't come with one and support said they didn't have any books left and they wouldn't print more as they didn't plan on making anymore MMU2's (they said this while they were still selling them from their website and before they made it public about discontinuing MMU2) They also said it really wasn't for anyone who wasn't very tech savvy as it had lots of issues. Direct from Prusa support!

    FYI four years ago in Summer 2019, I did a DIY Arcade Spinner using a Chinese optical rotary encoder and Arduino Pro Micro MCU/AVR "Micro-controller". It can be found on git-hub pages, craigb-spinner, for Arcade-Spinner. December 2022, I posted modded software, vari-SpinSpeed, from original Spinner 600ppr x4 Quadrature output with LSR (/2) to work as a 1200ppr device. Same adjusted output as a Turbo twist. The software also includes a routine to do a "divide function" as fast as possible without using Arduino pre-built math library for divides as AVR do not support hardware divides. If you read in the community the software divide is somewhere 300 clock cycles but a subtract 5-10 cycles. Division is subtraction until remainder is larger than divisor. You move the quotient to the mouse movement. Since you don't spin the spinner in hyper mode, the dyi function works great as you should not exceed 3-4 mouse pixels. You will need two buttons to adjust the spinner sensitivity and the Pro Micro outputs a USB mouse HID device as either x or y. Divide is from 2 to 50. You may want to add 1 function back in for the Turbo Twist with skip divide logic when divisor equals one. I was going to add in a pre-doubler (LSL x2) to add a 1/2 divide feature. Divide: / 3 x 2 = 1.5, / 4 x 2 = 2.0, / 5 x 2 = 2.5 some games require more precision earlier on.

    Thanks for the video. I recently had my first stuck filament and ended up using the supplied needle nose plyers to work it up and out. After getting the filament out I recut it at 45 degrees passed the stripped filament area and then reloaded it. There was a nice blob that extruded before it went back to being smooth, obviously my problem. Did a test print and good to go again. The other videos I watched had the basic "heat, unload, reload" which didn't work. 3 years later and your video is still saving people from a headache, much appreciated. PS. I really enjoyed your initial comment basically saying, "It doesn't matter how we got here, but we are here." Made me laugh out loud because it is so true.
