ParticipantWell now !
I stuffed up my drivewheels when I tried to true it in the lathe.
It happen when you use too big machines for the job.
Wel start sort of from scratch !!!
Jaco Annandale
ParticipantStill busy with the tear down. Will let you know asap. !!
Jaco Annandale

ParticipantMorning all.
Well I decided to take the whole drive system apart and to re-assemble it again.
I did find the inner rod to have a small problem. it looks like the nuts at the end started to wear out the copper pipe. If you wiggle the pipe a little bit, you can hear the the nuts are loose in the pipe ( ;-> )
I then started to thing about the solid shaft for the inner tube.
Should I have a solid pipe with the inside ends threaded to be M8, and only connect a small piece of threaded bolt to each end? Or should i thread the whole pipe (which would be nearly impossible ).
Hmm I think a picture whould discribe it better !!
Will come back to you !!!
Jaco Annandale
ParticipantMmmm i’ve got a big Mitco lathe at work. Will definitly try that.
Do you perhaps have picture or specs of the inner rod?
Thanks for all the help
Jaco Annandale
ParticipantI used your HQ settings.
Ok, how tight must the belts be ?
What can be wrong in the drive shaft? Maybe the bilts are too loose?
Thx
Jaco Annandale

ParticipantHope you dont mind me chipping in…
I had similar problems. My problem was heating on the A4988. The current was set to the right value.
It worked at the beginning and later on started squealing.
Added a small fan to the top of the stepper drives and it worked.
So check current and check heating.. Hope it helps !!

Do you perhaps have a picture of this setup?
Another thing… Do you sell the metal extruder from the Reprap Pro seperatly?
Thanks

ParticipantA stupid Question :
I have switched to the 1.75mm extruder.
How do I connect the 4mm PTFE bow-den tube to the tool head?Is there perhaps a tightening cone for the 4mm PTFE tube or am I on the wrong track ?
Thanks
Jaco Annandale
