#sv08 — Public Fediverse posts

I’ve been off my #3dPrinting game. I had work travel, a shoulder injury, and started a new job so ability and free time has been very scarce.

But today, I’m changing over and the hot end of the #sv08 to a microswiss flow tech. The SOVOL nozzle system is definitely a weak point of this printer and the 1st party hardened steel was the worst “upgrade” I ever made to any printer.

Let’s see how ‘drop-in’ this new hot end is

While switching to mainline klipper on my #SV08 I did a test print without flashing the MCUs. It was interesting....

#3dPrinting #fail

This is what i found that I should have fixed by plugging back in what I've indicated in the second image
#3Dprinting #SV08

I had a big crash two days ago on the printer. My first crash that has dislodged the fan shroud on the #sv08. And the printer wouldn't boot.

After a few days trying to trouble shoot and install mainline klipper (around looking after kids, etc) and the step where I need to input the MCU and extra MCU tty ports into the config and I've only got 1 tty.

Oh, the crash pulled a cable partially out of the hotend.

That was a lot of effort for nothing.

#3dprinting

Ok, so I've been poking around in the software. It's running debian bullseye 😭 and has a custom kernel installed for the Allwinner H616 chip.

I think the medium term solution to this madness is following the various guides online to get it running mainline klipper as they seem to use armbian images. I'd love to get nixos on it but not apparent chip support appears.

I bought a #Sovol #SV08 for multiple reasons that are still valid, it arrived yesterday, the ‚build’ was mostly easy, it‘s a fine machine, it’s large, fast and very loud, and I‘m really happy.
But dang, it is not a #prusa in so many ways I didn‘t know my #MK3 was a Prusa!
Still, it‘s amazing how far we got in about 7 years.

my #SV08 will arrive today so I can tinker with my trusty #PrusaMK3 without fear \o/
And I‘m currently watching Grant at #formnext salivating over #bondtech #indx, this will be an interesting year!

Second print attempt on the SV08. It's made it past the second layer, so that's nice.

I have no idea if Sovol actually contributed the Orca profiles, but it's always a bad experience when they don't work.

#Sovol #SV08 #3DPrinting

So I’m having a bit of a #3dPrinting conundrum.

I swapped out my #SV08 nozzle assembly for the SOVOL hardened steel model. I’ve run hardened steel for years on other printer - just up the printing temp by 5c and go.

SOVOL recommends printing PLA at 245, which seems way hot. At that temp I’m getting charred spots but it is printing relatively normally. At the top end of the material (230c), the 0.6 line width is printing closer to 0.45mm, so massive under extrusion.

Thoughts?

Yesterday, one of my PLA prints started warping after the gantry level took a couple tries. This is unusual because my #SV08 is typically rock solid on the first layer.

“Oh well, bed is probably dirty” I thought.

This morning, I went to start a new print and noticed the bed looked odd.

I took the PEI sheet off and noticed that a 5mm magnet was stuck to the underside of the bed!

I’m amazed that it was able to auto level enough to have a semi-successful print.

Habe das Schicksal meines zickenden CR10 besiegelt und einen #Sovol #sv08 geklickt. Freu' mich auf die Maschine 🥰
#3dprinting

Thoughts after eight prints into #3dPrinting with my #SV08

- assembly instructions were garbage
- bed adhesions had been fine (albeit everything I’ve printed has been not particularly challenging)
- z offset is automatic but maybe a little low by 0.1-0.2 mm
- print quality has been fine
- print start is a little slow (it has to both tram the gantry and probe the bed)
- biggest complaint: filament change is the worse.
- it’s reliable enough to start and walk away
- it’s loud

1/4

Sorry to drop this, life/family/etc. I got the #SV08 to print a benchy from the USB drive just fine after assembly.

I had some difficulty getting the wifi setup. What's described in the manual seems to have no connection to the actual software.

I've printed a few models now and I've done zero tuning. The automatic z offset seems a tad too low, but nothing that has caused a print failure, just some less than ideal bottom layers.

Gantry and tool head mounted. #sv08

One weirdness: you’re required to remove the fan shroud to mount the tool head. But they have hot glued the JST connector from the factory 🤦‍♂️

Okay, I think this might be an important missing thing/mistake in the instructions:

When installing the top frame you should really install 1 screw then do the diagonal opposite, then the other diagonal opposites. Kind of like putting wheel bolts on.

The instructions say to do two at a time, which you can, but you could easily cross thread the inserts and make it go out of square. #SV08 #3dPrinting

#SV08 Z uprights installed. Instructions leave some to be desired: if you followed verbatim it only says to install screws on 2 of 4 🤦‍♂️
(Or maybe I did it wrong!)

All parts accounted for! #SV08

It’s Tee-Time #golf #sovol #sv08

Woohoo! My launch day, early-bird Sovol #SV08 finally shipped.

I'm going on a very long trip next week so it's very possible I won't even get to assemble it until August or September though.

#3dPrinting

:sigh:

In the #3dPrinting world, #OpenSource is so misunderstood.

There was a video comparing the Sovol #SV08 (GPL3) to a Troodon kit. The creator concluded that one place the SV08 definitively had a leg up was that it was open source.

About a week later the same creator posted a google drive link with the STEP file for the Troodon saying "Look, Troodon is open source."

Open up the STEP file in FreeCAD and the license metadata: "All rights reserved."

Frisch in Betrieb genommen und sehr begeistert!
Der #Sovol #SV08 ist binnen 20 Minuten montiert und nach lief nach spätestens 1 Stunde mit dem ersten Druck.

Die Lautstärke ist vorhanden, wird sich aber, durch Tausch der Lüfter und passende Config, kurzfristig lösen lassen.

Ich gehe davon aus, dass die erste Mods alsbald rauskommen werden, nachdem der Druck er nun (früher als angekündigt) ausgeliefert wurde.
