I have the extrude switch soldered to a transistor and restistor so that it activates extruder when spindle is turned on. I plan on making a script that will modify whole files for me after i figure out what need to be done. Right now its calibrated and appears to be drawing the pyramid i was going to test print but i am getting some errors like expected command letter and line overflow. Also unsupported statement. | |

| Oct 28, 2017 at 14:25 | comment | added | Keith Bybee | I know that m3 starts the extruder and m5 stops it. Last night i spent alot of time calibrating things and it seems to be making the correct movements i just need to add extruder start/stops. The flavour i was trying to use was machinekit. I'll read that wiki and see what i can find. | |
