[Sourcing Bushings and Rods]

You should be able to buy them at your reseller. Just drop them a mail with the part numbers.

Also if you read the github pdfs you can check the size and buy them at misumi or igus. Just google 'misumi igus neotko ultimaker' since I did wrote about. For igus part numbers I think this are correct: https://ultimaker.com/en/community/19229-gt2-upgrades?page=1#reply-133669

Anyhow if you have access to a business you can order from misumi also: https://ultimaker.com/en/community/17068-making-your-own-ultimaker-what-not-to-buy-on-china-stores-personal-experience?page=2#reply-133667

I don't know which it's cheaper. But, just never, ever, never buy them from a ebay/china, you will end up with very bad banana shafts (been there done that).

 

I looked up those part numbers on IGUS but was unable to find them. Can you provide me with a link? Sorry.

Thanks

[Sourcing Bushings and Rods]

Hi,

I need to replace a Y linear rail and a sintered bronze bushing on my Ultimaker Original+. In the manual, it says the part numbers are 1011 for the linear rail and 1056 for the bushing. Can anyone help me find where I can buy these parts?

Thanks

[Stuck Y-Carriage]

Hi,

I was moving the Y-axis (not manually, with the "Move Axis" function) on my Ultimaker Original+ when it seemed to randomly jam up and not move. Upon further inspection I realized that the Y-Carriage on the right-hand side of the printer would not budge. There is no visible obstructions and even if I detach the belt and the smaller rail, it still will not move. Does anyone have any advice for this? I've heard sewing machine oil should be used with those rails, but I have not tried it yet.

Thanks

[Copper Grease]

Hi,

My Ultimaker Original + kit came with copper grease, but the instructions never involved it. I've built the bot and it works great, but where is the copper grease supposed to go?

Bonus question: Do I ever have to apply lubricant to the linear rails?

Thanks

[Layer Delay]

Hi,

How can I change some G-code so that there is a delay after every layer is finished? I know that this probably wouldn't be a change within the start.gcode. So how can I make this change?

Thanks in advance

[Changing G-code]

Hi,

Whenever a print is started, the machine homes the X and Y and then stays in that corner, is there anyway I can make a edit somewhere that will home the X and Y and then move the print head to the center of the build area? I'm using a UMO+.
