· UM3E Vibration and Axle Woes [field report]
It is hard to say way, but you should check every few months if your screws are all tight enough. Additionally, check play on the axles as described in the UM maintenance guide. Could be from some extreme vibrations which could occur when printing small infill areas along a wall or something like that. Sometimes I think my printer will fly away when printing such things and when is that case the screws are a little bit loose they could easily get looser.
The fan door is problematic but can be fixed with bending back. There are also some clamps on Youmagine to hold the door stable in place.
I'm excited because I've personally produced this showcase event, so if you are curious what else I'm up to nowadays, come check it out and say hi in the chat! It would mean a lot!

BTW you should change your silicon nozzle cover!
