Ignoring the number of wipes.
-
@Phaedrux Ah ... fair enough. I think I was on the RC for some good reason --- I normally wouldn't. I think it had to do with my filament monitor. Anyways... will take me a bit. But I will retest it.
-
@moth4017 Both types of brushes fit, but it's a manual change for me. I have almost as much fun making the printer as using it. Here's a pic of the setup:
-
If anyone's curious, the brush-head comes from a brush amazon sells in bulk ... in steel, brass (?) and nylon. I published the modified parts on both thingieverse and printables.
-
So... I upgraded to 3.5.1 and I retested. I have video.

I shot the web console tracing the GCode there, too. Pertinently, the layer change and wipe is as above.
(note there is no wipe back-and-forth) ...

@zBeeble I wasn't able to view your video (I even tried to download it, others may have more luck). Can you post your config.g file and a sample gcode file so we can see the commands that are executed before the wipe operation.
-
@gloomyandy So... I think it's a windows fail. New codec. Linux understands it. Anyways... here's a utube. https://youtu.be/Az021pmf5Y4
G code is exactly the code in the first post for the wipe. You will see just that code going by.
I will upload config.g in a sec.

@zBeeble I'm using a chromebook not Windows, so I guess that doesn't support whatever codec has been used.
Anyway looking at your config.g you have:
M208 X250 Y210 Z110 S0
But your movements to perform the "wiggle" are all out to X=270 which will not be allowed. I'm a little surprised you did not get any warning messages in the console, but perhaps you only get them for print moves.
-
@gloomyandy hrm. Fair enough. I'll make that modification and try after it finishes leveling.
-
@gloomyandy had the right pick. Changing Cura's notion of the wipe position to x=230 makes it go back and forth between 230 and 250 --- which is what is desired. Documentation is a bit of a problem for Cura ... welll ... that and complexity.
Thanks ...
