I removed the in-progress flag for you. You can remove any flag, such as “in-progress” by going to edit the introduction page and pressing the X at the right side of the flag. Some flags, when posting in some sections, will require a moderator to remove them. Most you can remove or add yourself.

Here is the board side, which is the only thing I have that provides detail on where the wires actually go. The harness connectors are the exact same pinout for each end, they do not switch around. So pin 1 of the board harness goes to pin 1 on the 3d printer harness, pin 2 goes to 2, etc.. The diagram shows the plug from underneath (wire side, not pin side). Red and white on the diagram (pin 1 and 6) go to the thermistor, polarity doesn't matter. Grey and purple on the diagram (pin 4 and 9) go to the heater cartridge, polarity does not matter. Pin 5 and 10, pink and black, go to the fan. Pin 5 (pink) is ground, pin 10 ( black) is +19V (pwm). [document: main board_connector series 7]

If you are local to Pittsburgh, please contact Controller@BoXZY.com and request availability for a Demonstration, otherwise, if you are not located near BoXZY's factory, you’ll want to request information on nearby schools that may have integrated BoXZY as part of their curriculum, and would possibly be willing to offer assistance.

I haven't tried cermark, but a light dusting of flat black spray paint does normally work. Usually dark (and non polished underneath) anodized aluminum will etch without any coating.

Have to actually separated the black cold and and aluminum hotend yet? Most clogs are actually filament bundling up between the hose connector and the black cold end and do not require a full dissasembly. You can typically just unscrew the connector, clip the filament bundle, and put everything back together. Otherwise, this guide will help you: Disassembling and Assembling 3D Printer Nozzle

The diameter of the linear rails and ballscrews are still the same. Ballscrews typically are an exchange only item, except for the kit. Most wobble is caused by damaged, or hanging, linear bearings, not the ballscrews. Many Kickstarter machines had great ballscrews on them. The quality control just wasn't as strict, so it was hit or miss. Some we're amazing, some weren't great. Most wobble issues attributed to the ballscrews was actually the machine being assembled in slightly the wrong order, which pinched and/or ovalized the outer lm12uu linear bearings, causing them to hang up on each cycle of the balls. Before replacing the expensive stuff, I'd recommended a good greasing of the linear bearings and ballscews. Then loosen the set screw on the outer bearing mount, the one that holds the rail, not the bearing itself (though that could be too tight, so inspect it). Then loosen the set screws on the outside of the body that hold the rails in place. That will allow the system to relax, if it's been assembled...

Hi, Yes, BoXZY can absolutely mill 3d. Both of these items were milled on BoXZY

That's extrmely odd, those fans are basically hard wired directly to the power input, there is nothing in between them. Is it possible you plugged them in reverse? That would do what you described. If that's not possible, check the pins on the board, a pin may have broken loose from the board under the white connector.

As long as you can reduce your feedrates a bit, it shouldn't be an issue. Biggest problem will be added backlash during acceleration to high travel speeds. Best way to find out is place a 10 lb weight, or even a gallon of milk, on the empty gantry and run a script. You won't harm the ballscrews for sure. Worst thing you could do is cause some excessive wear on the linear bearings, but they are not at all expensive to replace, and a slightly shorter life shouldn't be much of a deterrent.

There are two things to watch out for: One: When using the heated bed, BoXZY's 19V power supply has literally 0 excess wattage available. Truthfully, BoXZY uses more wattage than the power supply can provide, but the voltage is provided at very tightly controlled intervals using pwm, so that it can technically use more power than available, as the waves go high at different points. If you pull any direct voltage or even additional pwm from BoXZY when the heated bed is operational, it will shutdown the power supply until you do a hard power reset. Even a small case fan could do it, or USB accessory. Two: You can create a ground loop with a Pi if you're not careful, depending on how you power it. It’s not a good idea to use BoXZY's 19V power supply to power anything that connects to BoXZY via USB. In a ground loop situation the interface may lock up the micro controller and/or interface and appear not to be heating, while heating uncontrollably (runaway heater). Always verify the heater is truly not heating...

Lack of adhesion can be caused by a vast number of factors including nozzle height, leveling, bad filament, temperature etc. Please provide a photo or video of the issue and post this question in the answers section so we can help you further:

Hi Martha,

You can find the same item here: https://m.ebay.com/itm/Router-Rotational...

For this write up, you are correct, everything would have to be returned to original to 3D print. There is an available empty slot on the board, however, the programming is not in place for it to be used without firmware modification.

The aluminum selection work correctly for brass.

Not in BoXZY’s current configuration on factory hardware.
