9/15/2026 - 7th Update!

uh, it’s even later than yesterday, it’s actually 1:37 AM right now. anyways, you think id miss an updatelog :p

(no, this isnt a continuation of yesterday’s session, its actually been a whole 24 hours)

not much talking, i want to get at least half an hour of cad done today!

ok, so for the rods on the z lift, we need to have limits, and we gotta define the ending blocks at this point…

also, we’re gonna be using whatever screws the motors use (unless theyre somehow too big for our purposes), just because its, well, optimial i guess

my sourcing adventures have told me about the F4-9M thrust bearing. idk.

so uh, imma ignore that and try to solve it, one second

ok, good news, we now have a solid 5cm of build height (in the worst case scenario, how low the tools are is the biggest influence for this, this statistic assumes the worst case that the tool reaches the very bottom). yeah. so. we do need to optimize the scissor lift bit to squeeze more height in

ok, so it’s 2:27 AM, did a bit of z and corexy work today. yeah, we’re running pretty close to deadline, ill see what i can do tomorrow, hopefully with an earlier start? also, another note, the build plate representation was done yesterday (but i just put it below the rollback bar for things to be more accessible while working on it)

so yeah! it’s 2:30 AM, so yeah, good night!
