- | **State:** The machine powers on and prints via wifi using the onboard OctoPi installation. The print area is small due to bed-leveling limitations (printable area drawn on bed itself). Manual 3-point bed-levelling is done using the GUI to position. Fast or fine detail prints are not recommended. The power supply has been repurposed and may need to be replaced. | + | **State:** The machine powers on and prints via wifi using the onboard OctoPi installation.

- | **State:** Unused for some time and in need of a hot-head rebuild. Previously, the main board (Sanguinoliu 1.3a) failed due to over-heating problems at the PID hot-bed power output. The bed's power FET has been bypassed with the 5v logic directly driving an external relay for bang-bang bed control. The XYZ mechanics are working but the hothead assembly failed due to it's plastic cracking. A replacement hothead assembly has been printed and new head purchased. The new head is wired in and is awaiting fitting into the replacement head assembly and fixing on to the X-carriage. Manual bed-levelling lacks precision, but is functional. | + | **State:** Unused for some time and in need of a hot-head rebuild.
