Note
Since skeinforge is a big part of the RepRap toolchain for a lot of people we may want to maintain a local mirror of it, along with incorporating all the tutorials. --Sebastien Bailard 18:57, 11 January 2010 (UTC)
Troubleshooting Tips
- Extruder not moving
- You need the dimensions module loaded to generate E codes, which drive the extruder.
- Heater not heating when raft module disabled
- The raft module also controls preheating. To stop printing rafts, simply set the layer-counts in the raft module to 0, rather than disabling it.
- Volume-based extrusion
- Skeinforge 040 made some drastic changes to the dimension module (for the better). Check here for help setting it up.
