The TIME HAS COME for the first test prints on my $50 3D printer project!!! At first I had some really terrible results until I realized the awfully brittle green PLA I was using was responsible for most of it, and using some newer Geeetech filament fixed many of them. What it couldn't fix was a healthy amount of layer shift in the X-axis but I already hinted at something of the sort happening in episode 7: • Building a unipolar 3D... and since I want to install lead screws on this printer ASAP that's not a big deal. Unfortunately I somehow managed to smash my glass printbed in the process of filming this video, so I'll have to make a new one before the next episode.
