Wanted to build a Morgan so instead of trying to convert the pipes used in it I built my frame from 2020 rail and made by own bearing blocks and some other bits.

First printing with the Scara looking good so far. No z endstop so set it with piece of paper and no heated bed as my PSU mount is printing so running off a 5 amp 24V power pack. Using a Bondtech BMG for bowden drive with a Phaetus BMO hotend. Link to youtube video below. This is my first time ever uploading to youtube so if it does not work I apologize and will fix it.
A couple pictures of the first print complete. I am amazed how good it came out without part cooling even.
@oliof Thank you. I went ahead and tried 3.4.5 and have my Morgan style moving and all looks correct. Still need to install bed and hot end.
Finally got a test set of arms printed and a mount for the Nema 17 harmonic drives. Here it is in action. https://youtube.com/shorts/bj47uQ08zV0?feature=share
Serial scara build with 125mm arms and linear rails for Z axis. Waiting on hot end heater cartridge and 4010 blower fan and will have it printing

@o_lampe I see now thanks for pointing that out. I hope they are decent quality and good enough.
Bit of an update firmware seems solid but unfortunately I thought 15mm diameter carbon fiber tube would be strong enough for the rotational forces and i was wrong. I have some twisting which causes a springiness on the inner shaft. Now going to 25mm for the inner shaft which is the diameter the outer used to be and 30mm for the outer.
I also purchased a set of https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0BQ728M9F/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o01_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
These are 30:1 with 0.6 degree steppers. Supposed to have 2 Arcmin back lash which is 0.03 degree so should be plenty accurate. I thought about going true 5 bar with those mounted 45mm apart I would have the same print area as I do now. Anyone have any experience with these?

Is 5bar still be developed or worked on?
