Arrrgh. I hate to revisit this again but I'm having issues with the parts generator again. I have the latest file from the git and the latest java release. Running on Mac. When I generate the file,...

Not yet, wanted verification before I printed the parts. Tnx!

I had to print a few parts today one being the spring adapters. Something I found was the large spring that I ordered from Double Alpha for the MB was 15mmOD/13MM ID and the option in the Parts...

I'm subscribed to the Git so I get an email when its updated. I've been following the email link and downloading the source code.zip file here:

The lock up problem appears to be caused by the selection of the 9mm Bullet Feed Dies. I figured out that I didn't need the APP parts, and re-ran the generator without the APP stuff selected and it...

I downloaded the latest file from the Git and the Project Generator is hanging up on Adding: Drop_Tube_10mm.stl

Another side note, I haven’t been able
to get the project generator to work in...

PrusaSlicer is just a version of Slic3r. As for Cura, I have to use an old version as for some reason later versions result in poor print quality with my f/w. I’ve wasted countless hours with Cura...

I can generate support for bridges and if I slice doing so, it does add support to the holes. Part cooling is at 100% fan speed.

That’s what I’m using per the pdf from the configurator, 2 walls 20% fill. PLA+ @ 200C the rest of it is beautiful, no interference between the two parts. Bottoms of the holes look fine. I’m...

I’m having a little difficulty with overhang in the bullet drop die where the ball bearings go. Any suggestions on improving the accuracy in the print?...

NVM I found it

0.4mm E3D nozzle, 0.12 layer height, 0.44 extrusion width, 15% infill, 3 perimeters maybe I should slow the print speed down and give it more time to cool. Overall it looks pretty good and the parts...

A couple of pics might help.282382282384

I understand how it works & that the holes are hemispherical, the printed holes have a little bit of error where the filament bridges the top of the hemisphere even at a .12 layer hgt spec’d in the...

I started the project by printing the bullet drop die as a debug for the printer & slicer settings. They came out fine with the exception of the ball bearing pockets which are just a tiny bit...

Has anyone found a particular brand of filament that’s a good match for the Dillon blue?

I’ve used that PWM speed control on my annealing machine, I have a spare that I planned on testing on the bullet feeder.

If you go back and look at the plans, there isn’t a need to cross drill the shaft, you can use hex couplings and the plates have a female hex that mates with the coupling.

You could print an adapter plate to go between the motor & bowl. That would exacerbate the shaft length issue tho.

One thing to keep in mind is the Dillon wall wart is 24V. The wiring for the photo diode and proximity versions call for 12V supply. Micro switch version, like the Dillon uses doesn’t matter.

Going to give this project a go as well as soon as I mod my printer to expand the work envelope a little. One question, I have the Dayton 52JE51 motor and I've looked everywhere in the manual and did...
