    Morning 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 !!!

    I 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

    Hope 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 !!

    A 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
