@phaedrux Thanks very much! Fixed.

@danal said in Delta with a square bed?:

Nothing special about the glass. It is sold as a round tabletop for use with your legs/frame. Purchased from Amazon (US) for about $40. It is about 6mm thick. Heater is stuck to the back, no "spreader". Works GREAT.

You might like to take a look at Tom Sanladerer's latest video, about heated beds. His FLIR measurements clearly show the benefit of using a heat spreader.

Thanks for the pointer to the other thread. You're right, that is quite similar.

Luckily for me, my nimble extruder (love it!) has 2600 steps per mm, so the issue of no extrusion due to thin layers going below 1 step isn't affecting me, I think.

At this point, I'll just have to experiment to see what I can get.

Apparently, I did fry my smart effector. 😞

I remembered I had a spare smart effector stashed away, swapped all the effector parts onto the other PCB, and everything seems to be working fine.

Now on to figure out why my print failed and jammed the hot end in the first place....

You could also try keeping the motors powered up but at a lower power when the print finishes so it doesn’t drop. Would mean that it doesn’t completely shut off but would save a dent in your print. You would probably need to play around with this to get the right current setting.

Kind Regards,

Sam
