Topic: Printer Questions
I wanted to know what I should consider doing to my printer when I receive it. A few of the things I have questions on are:
An extruder duct fan. I'm not too keen on replacing my entire board with the panelolu just for the sake of being able to change settings on the fly, but the ability to have a gcode controlled fan is intriguing. I wanted to know if this would be the best way to attach a fan, or if gcode controlled is really necessary.
Also on the panelolu, is it able to do anything that I'm not able to do with controlling it with a pc?
On dialing in the printer, should I invest in a dial gauge such as the one Ian has or would the recommended paper slipping way do the trick?
I know I should be investing in a pair of calipers atleast to check filament diameter.
Thanks for all the help thrown my way!
