Fine tuning prints and printer
Hey guys
Just set up my i3 MK2s last night/early early this morning, finished calibration and have been printing a couple of test prints out
XYZ callibration was ok. X/Y axes are perpendicular
calibration gcode from SD card included was run and Z was adjusted
I printed the dragon on the SD card and have included some pictures. Overall I was really happy but there were a few errors that I would like to learn how to prevent. Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated
I have also included a 20sec video of the printer in action ( https://vimeo.com/234301675 ). It doesn't make excessive noise to my mind but it is far from "nearly silent" as described and there is also a high frequency rattling sound that can be heard in the video and it comes and goes, I am unsure of the cause. rattling is rarely a good thing and I want to make sure I am not inadvertently damaging the printer. Does anyone know what the cause of these sounds are and if they are likely to indicate a problem with increased ware, etc...
thanks all

You will not get rid of the belly issue; that is printed in mid-air without support.
