Scared to start printer up!
Posted: Wed Jul 22, 2015 4:00 am
Hi,
I have just finished building my G2 printer but I am now afraid to start it up after reading this forum.
Has anyone successfully built and run a G2\G2S ?
I think the kit has great potential but has poor quality control on some parts.
This along with the supplied firmware snapping parts before it's even started printing and then being told to print or buy these parts again is very damaging to a companies name and product.
You have built enough of these printers (I would think) to be able to supply the kit with working firmware that should just need minimum fine tuning.
I don't know when the firmware was uploaded on to my printers board so could I have a link to the latest firmware please.
Also would it be possible to add revision dates to the firmware file name?
Would I be better off taking my spider off for the first homing?
