No, they are separate with one being run off E1.

This allows me to run a G32 command to do a left to right adjustment during my bed compensation macro.

@RyanP

@shatty

Do i have to auto tune again?

no

shatty

@RyanP What are you using for a slicer? I thought they are universal across all slicers. Im using Creality's

shatty

2nd print at 200c. Little better. What should I do next? Drop it more? Im not going to be using PLA. I am just using the sample that came with the printer. I have black PETG. Should I put that in and continue from there?

Veti

that is already looking good. maybe a bit overextrusion or it could be bad quality filament.
try reducing the flow by 10%

petg printing is a bit more difficult compared to pla. its not as forgiving.

shatty

I compared it to the first print and it actually looks alot better. The layers are more uniformed and color also. I think have it set at 135 for extrusion. I will drop it down to 130.

is that your esteps or percent of flow?

shatty

That is esteps

Veti

pla does not like to be overextruded, but underextrusion is ok.

so try 125 if 130 is the default for your extruder.

PETG @ 230 C. Its the best print yet!. There was a little sting inside the cabin. Thats it! Maybe drop it 5 deg?

shatty

If u see stuff on the side of the hull, thats cat hair. The cat loves going near the stupid printer

Veti

you might want to get some plexiglas covers for the side so your cat does not get near it.
