Topic: X-Axis Rattle

Hello

Well I'm having some good success (I think)

However, I have developed a rattle on my x axis (both directions some of the time but the majority of the time when moving left looking at the front of the machine), but only when extruding which seems somewhat strange, has anybody else experienced this or could anyone give any clues to what might be causing.

It doesn't affect print quality in any way and it is intermittent it seems, it doesn't do it when I move the axis using manual with RH, only when printing.

Thanks
Rob

It turned out to be the cooling fan on the side, I only have two screws in it so the rattle was coming from the fan guard.
