RatOS RC4. What a major difference it has made to my V-Core4. No longer baby stepping the z-offset. Prints ABS like it always should have. I can start prints remotely and be confident of no initial errors.

The #ratrig v-core 4.0 with some 4.1 parts is taking shape now. I’ve got to do the rear panel and electronics enclosure then I can start wiring things up for initial test. Later I’ll need to replace the xy steppers with longer shaft high temp ones. Maybe build some smaller tool heads.

Control of the 3D slicing software and 3D design CAD software would make more sense.
Especially when ordering random parts on Ali express can build a highly capable 3D printer better than what you can buy. #Auspol #ratrig #Voron

#ratrig coming along...

i see the future... there is going to be unboxing and then some unboxing. Maybe finding tools and learning new things.

This is super cool. I did not think we'd be getting any official upgrades for the V-Core 3. Thank you for taking care of us.

Well done #RatRig.

A 3D printer shell that's a mess of screws, wires, and cables. It is in mid-disassembly.

Today is "Disassemble the Rat Rig printer" day. It's tedious but coming along. I've been putting it off.

Hi, is anyone here using a #Ratrig #3dPrinter? I recently got an A1 mini to try the Bambu experience in await of their next big release but I’m reconsidering this now for … reasons. So I took a glance at Ratrig as they offer an IDEX upgrade. So my questions: do they work stable, can calibrate […]

The #bigrat ate up the cheap and nasty ABS and spat out a pretty decent print. This happens to be the longest print to date, 10hrs. After weeks and weeks of #frustration I’m slowly beginning to believe in it. #ratrig #vcore4 #3dprinter #3dprinting

After some alterations the #bigrat is doing its thing. Spent yesterday calibrating the twist in the x-gantry. Feeding it some “cheap & nasty” generic ABS. Seems to be working.

Now thats all done I’ll again about to continue the fight with then #BigRat. The ever moving z-offset is today’s main objective. But first the frame needs a very very small adjustment to lift the back right corner. The issue is the quick connectors. I hate them.

Well that didn’t go as planned. Supposed to be a relaxing trip. Blue lighted to the emergency department with what didn’t turn out to be a heart attack.

Starting 2025 on a productive note. Printing off a new hotend carriage for my V-Core 3.1 in ASA on the X1 Carbon. This has been an off and on project for a very long time, and I’d like to get it running officially. #3dprinting #ratrig #v-core3.1 #bambulabs #x1carbon

Drove down to the Spanish Coast for a few days of sunshine. It’s been nice to leave the BigRat behind. Such a frustrating experience. Anyhoo.

So. Feeding the BigRat didn’t have a happy ending. At some point it decided that it needed to layer shift and not just by a little. Frustratingly this happens all too often. #ratrig #nobufil #positron #3dprinting

More food for the BigRat. More Positron parts for me.

After many weeks of trial and error my RatRig VCore 4 500 is printing. These are the ABSx accented parts for my Positron Christmas project. #3dprinting #nobufil #ratrig

Currently printing the part on my #BambuLab #X1Carbon that caused my #RatRig #VCore to self-destruct.

X1 having no issues. Perfect first layer. Groovin’

There are a lot of 3D printing enthusiasts that love to hate on Bambu Labs users for some reason. I have one, but I also have a RatRig that I built from a kit. Honestly, the Bambu Labs is just so much easier and less stressful. See thread for examples.

The ratrig 500 putting in work! #3dprinting #3dprinter #ratrig @mrsprobeach.bsky.social

I’m almost offended how good the #BambuLab #X1C has turned out. I spent so much time tinkering with my #RatRig, and here was this printer just waiting to be unboxed and plugged in.

Beyond impressed. Utterly happy. Glad I got in before the tariffs. #3DPrinting

Testing out some new colors on Etsy! I really love this orange - what's your favorite color?
