[gyorid print issues]

Turns out that the two rods that the print head slides on were loose and one even came out of its bracket.  Once I tightened them the loss of steps seemed to disappear.

[gyorid print issues]

With the latest version of Cura it includes the gyroid slicing model that I really like.  It speeds up the printing on my rather slow 3d printer pretty well.  

I found it recently and started using it but lately I may have found an issue.  I created a part that I wanted to print and it printed very quickly using the gyroid on 25 fill.

Since I was prototyping the part i did not include any through holes for mounting the part to another object.  

I then added two mounting holes with a counterbore to recess the mounting screws.  The printer stared losing steps as it got to the hole.  At the same time I wanted it to print faster so I reduce the infill to 10 percent.  

I then reset the infill to 25 percent the reprinted,  The same happened only worse.

The last print I change back to cubic infill and the part printed normally with no step loss.

I've fine tuned this printer very excessively and it does not normally lose steps.  I really don't know if this is a bug in the gyroid code but it seems to be a weird interaction with the stepper motors.

Is anyone having this issue?

 

[4.3.0 will not start on an Intel NUC with Windows 10]

I was wanting to move Cura to my Intel NUC running Windows 10 and it will load ok but when I tried to start it, the icon spins for a few seconds and it does nothing else.  I've update Windows 10 with all the latest patches and update the NUC with all the Intel updates and still nothing.  

I tried uninstalling Cura and reinstalling and still no luck.

 

Ideas?
