could we get a timescale added under the temperature chart in DWC?

RE: New RepRapFirmware config tool
is there a way to export a config.json from my current setup to import into the tool?

RE: RailCore II corexy
my google-fu is failing me (i can't find the specs & calculation), how much deflection (droop) do you get on that 12mm linear rail you're using unsupported for the X axis?
edit: actually, it appears you're using it as the Y-axis

RE: Prusa new kitchen sink XL printer
@exerqtor I'm wondering how well that filament path is going to handle flexible filaments. I can see getting a wad stuck between the 2 bearings opposing the toothed gear.

RE: Prusa new kitchen sink XL printer
I'm really interested in how they are handling the segmented bed, I think that could be a really great option going forward, depending what size of 'tiles' are available, why waste power heating sections of the bed you aren't printing on?

i see the release notes for RC07, but no RC07 files

RE: Precision Piezo Andromeda
@dc42 turns out the glass cracked under the PEI sheet and that was causing the inconsistent readings. replaced w/ a geckotek spring steel build plate (see my other thread on the high temp magnetic sheet if people want more info) and my readings are very consistent now.

RE: Make my heated bed magnetic w/ high temp magnet sheet?
verdict: works very well up to 110C (using it w/ geckotek removable 'hot' build plates). have not tested higher temps.

RE: New CoreXY 400x400x560mm Build in Progress
Have you considered a zesty nimble for remote direct drive extruder to lower your carriage mass? You could add a duex board and then drive all 3 z screws independently for auto leveling.

Make my heated bed magnetic w/ high temp magnet sheet?
Am I overlooking anything thinking I can use something like this: https://www.mcmaster.com/7301t25 (max temp 250F/120C) applied on my aluminum bed to allow me to use the various spring steel flexible build surfaces? Possible concerns w/ thickness variation, and the max temp is around the upper range for bed temps for Nylon & Polycarbonite
I print primarily ABS @ 110C for first 10 layers, then 100C for subsequent layers.

RE: Precision Piezo Andromeda
@calvinx oh, we have cats too (thus why all our 3d printers have enclosures), and I told my wife I have a rule of "we can't have more pets than persons living in the house", but she's pregnant now, so we're up to 3 cats and she keeps mentioning wanting a dog too...
@dc42 it was triggering fine against the PEI indoors (the back of the PEI is painted w/ high-temp black paint), and there's no noticeable condensation on the surface, similar error when the bed is cold or hot. perhaps something shifted when it was moved to the garage, I'll check that today.

RE: Precision Piezo Andromeda
@moriquendi phenomenal. How do they deal with low temperatures? Moved my coreXY into the garage to start getting the baby's future room ready and dc42's IR probe doesn't seem to like the near freezing temperatures with the PEI surface.

RE: Precision Piezo Andromeda
how would the second from the right actually trigger when pressure was put on the plate? the sensor would 'unflex'?
