Howdy y'all
I'm working on adapting the 3DClippy for my CR-10 V2. Hardware side is almost done, and I will release as soon as the software is in place and tested. I am, however, not very good with GCode. I have a rough outline of what I believe should be added in Prusa Slicer's tool change GCode box, though I would like to ask anyone who is a bit more experienced to help flesh out the specific syntax and identify where to insert it in the existing 3DChameleon Tool Change GCode. The below is pseudocode of how I'm condsidering mimicing the Ender 3DClippy GCode:
Tool Change
Retract Filament 1-ish cm;
Home X Axis; cut the filament
Send Extruder to furtest x limit; retract blade
Advance Filament 1-ish cm; push waste filament into hotend
Hand off process to 3DChameleon Tool-Change GCode to begin the color change;Thanks in advance for any assitance!
Best,
Mike
I'd recommend using the far end to cut and then homing to reset it instead of the other way around... that way it's always homed correctly at X=0.
Take a look at my Ender 3 code that does that.
