Morning all! Just starting my LR2 project build and thought I would share my experience on here. I am sure there will be some questions/plea for help as well
My build is in the UK and I already have most components from old projects.
I am struggling on the 60mm PU wheels, any UK builders found a decent local source??
Thankyou, @keeze ; I also found these [64mm Inline Skate Wheels 8 Pack 64mm Skates Replacement Wheels with Bearings S2X | (eBay)
I have no substantive way to know if they are any better but the bearings look more conventional and could be swapped out for the 608z that I have in stock with rubber seals (help keep sawdust at bay)
Oooh. Good point. But if I machine some v grooves in the deck (as seems to be the done thing for x axis stability) that should bring me back into tolerance again I expect…???
Update! All parts printed and have now assembled main gantry.
It’s running a bit rough at moment but I am on cold dipped galv conduits so will get the wet n dry out later to smooth out. Might open up the holes on the router mounting plate to allow the bearing brackets to relax a little as seems to be a little tight in traversing…unless anybody advises otherwise (do they bed in of their old accord over time / plastic creep?)
