I second the Fudge thought

Will it be open, that would be convenient! How do I reach out to get it reserved?

Google search Elkhart fairground camping, there is a phone number to call. They had availability when I checked last week.

So are you camping?

Pricing, it is 54 bucks for 2 nights and the gas to pull the camper, think I will be looking at hotels. (So I can have ac, LOL)

i guess you better ship yours. I cannot get the z axis to work without skipping. I had the same problem with the LR2 but never resolved it. I thought maybe it was an inadequate PS but i just put a 30A one on it and still have the problem.

I will still plan to bring the table i made with super sexy V1 engineering legs. It is 22x46 so i think it should be ok for your machine, right?

I will need to leave early sunday. if you want to use my board, we will need to disassemble Sat. Evening or Sun morning before 9-ish.

I bet I can make that work…

Ohhhh, on a dual endstop LR. I am not sure that has been done. The archim Dual stuff has been failing in the marlin builds for a long time.

I’ll need to bring a different board.

Wow, never heard of it, just looked it up. It looks like a rambo.

54

It is basically a 32bit rambo but we never really got any support with it so anytime an issue popped up we tried for a few months to solved them and get it pulled into Marlin. I had to scrap them because they consumed all my time.

55

i think the actual end stops are working. The system is struggling to lift the gantry. Does not seem to have the torque.

56

So hopefully the current is just not high enough. Or it could be the steppers and drivers are declared wrong, I am not sure why the new stuff is failing other than it has to do with X2 Y2 and Z2 depending on which machine.

Best western booked. Friday night only.

We got a schedule 9 days ahead. Glad I got tickets to arrive Thursday. I would not have been there until at least 4pm Friday.

I am not sure what I am going to bring. I don;t see any UPS or Fedex locations in Goshen, just partner stores that I doubt will be open Sunday or will be open for holding incoming shipments. I will try to find something along the route.

if you want to ship to me, i can drive it down.
