Turner Hunt commented on Emma Dorsey's blog post DH Linear Problem // "C too slow for G5 move" Error
"See attached - please revise your dimensions. You need to give more time for the DH to withdraw itself from its most forward position (this is the source of the "too slow" error). Also, on the "detached" USB problem, replace your un-powered USB hub…"

Turner Hunt commented on Christopher Stewart's blog post "Set axes accels" error message - help! (4X-23)

Turner Hunt commented on waseem's blog post Detached:phidgetStepper Phidget
"The X-Winder ships with an un-powered USB hub. Some PCs do not provide enough thru the USD socket to power this USB Hub. If you purchase a powered USB Hub for about $15 USD this will solve your "Detached" issue."

Turner Hunt commented on waseem's blog post using4x-34 for 3Axis mode wining

Turner Hunt commented on Luke's blog post Windings are too tight
"Once you apply the receipt paper and the packing tape, just try to remove that first without any winding. If you can't remove jsut the paner and the tape by itself, you won't be able to remove the fully winded part either."

Turner Hunt commented on Samuel VanDenBerg's blog post Does anyone us a filament modeling software?
"Samuel,
 
 Samuel,
 
There is a video on our YouTube channel about how to modify a g-code file for spool winding you can use the same principle to eliminate the carriage dwells.
 
If you have any questions email me at xfo@xwinder.com
