<p>So this is the original, <a href="https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3372835">https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3372835</a><br/> Remixed to this, <a href="https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3623043">https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3623043</a></p> <p>I made a slide to add to AirBee's (<a href="/airbee/designs">https://www.thingiverse.com/airbee/designs</a>) to offload into a tray sitting on the bench, glued on with Gorilla crazy glue.<br/> I have my nozzle stop in the center of the area between the wipe bar and the crossbar.<br/> Important to cover the slide and the cross-arm with aluminum tape or similar to avoid sticking.<br/> I made my wipe bar out of a piece of a silicone hose from the internals of an old drip coffee machine.</p> <p>Before the bar and the one second pause in the gcode, it was dragging the extruded bits up onto the bed, but the pause lets them stretch down the ramp a bit, and if the filament happens to ball up at the nozzle, the crossbar catches it before it goes up any further.</p> <p>I'm down to 20mm of extrude per wipe, and I think that is dangerously low, so I might have to bump it back up to 25mm.</p> <p>I'm using Prusa Slicer, and the G-Code that runs it is actually fairly simple and shamelessly borrowed from here <a href="https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3525097">https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3525097</a> or maybe here, <a href="https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3395883">https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3395883</a><br/> This code goes in under Filament Settings/Custom G-Code</p> <p>; Start Extruder 1<br/> M211 S0 ; Turn off soft stops<br/> G0 X-11.5 F12000 ; Go to X=-11.5mm at 200mm/s<br/> G92 E0 ; Reset extrusion distance on new tool<br/> T0 ; Activate tool 0<br/> G1 E20 F250 ; Extrude 20mm of filament at 30mm/s<br/> G4 S1 ; Pause for 1 second to allow filament to stretch out of nozzle<br/> M211 S1 ; Turn on soft stops<br/> G92 E0 ; Set current extruder position to 0mm<br/> G0 F10000 ; Increase feed rate before next travel</p> <p>;End Extruder 1<br/> G92 E0 ; Reset extrusion distance<br/> G1 E-3 F1800 ; Retract 3mm<br/> G92 E0 ; Reset extrusion distance on old tool</p> <p>; Start Extruder 2<br/> M211 S0 ; Turn off soft stops<br/> G1 X-11.5 F12000 ; Go to X=-11.5mm at 200 mm/sec<br/> G92 E0 ; Reset extrusion distance on new tool<br/> T1 ; Activate tool 1<br/> G1 E20 F250 ; Extrude x mm of filament at 4 mm/s on new tool<br/> G4 S1 ; Pause for 1 second<br/> M211 S1 ; Turn on soft stops<br/> G92 E0 ; Set current extruder position to 0mm<br/> G0 F10000 ; Increase feed rate before next travel</p> <p>;End Extruder 2<br/> G92 E0 ; Reset extrusion distance<br/> G1 E-3 F1800 ; Retract 3mm at 30 mm/s<br/> G92 E0 ; Reset extrusion distance on old tool</p> <h3> Print Settings</h3> <p><strong>Printer:</strong></p> <p>Geeetech A10M</p> <p><p class="detail-setting rafts"><strong>Rafts: </strong> <div><p>No</p></div><strong>Supports:</strong></p> <p>Yes</p> <p><p class="detail-setting resolution"><strong>Resolution: </strong> <div><p>0.2mm</p></div><strong>Infill:</strong></p> <p>15% Gyroid</p> <p><strong>Filament:</strong> Hello3D PLA Matte Black</p> </p></p> Category: 3D Printer Accessories
