1- Pictures. 99% of the time A few pictures of your entire build will help, including electronics. We do not care about empty pizza boxes and nasty wiring. Seriously if you do not get any further….show some pictures.
2- Link it. If you are using something you did not buy from here, link it. We don’t care where you choose to spend your money. We only care about getting you going as smoothly as possible. Saying “I bought the recommend part” 100% does not help.
3- Software. This leaves software. Run my crown Gcode. Did it work perfectly with a pen? Yes=continue….No=send pictures and links. The crown should be perfect if not it is pointless to move on. If that is good details of all the software you are using (too many times we get ten questions in and find out I am talking Estlcam and they are using something else). Screen shots help, dropbox or drive links to your files and gcode help.
4- New. Start a New thread. Even if you think you are having the exact same issue, please start a new thread.
You want the Advice section, not Troubleshooting. This section is for those who’re either in the process of building or already up and running but having an issue (or six).
