Evidence 1-
I have had a small issue with my surface finish for some time . Most of my work has been in HDU , but now I'm doing some wood and Extira. The issue seems to be magnified a lot. It looks like the areas around text and objects is a higher level than the rest of the surface .
Evidence 2-
I have also had an issue with the Y axis on occasion. The Bot will be running along fine and then it jumps really hard and makes a Hellacious noise ! The Y axis doesn't seem to lose it's position at all. At least I know it hasn't jumped a gear tooth or anything like that.
The Y axis motor also always seems to be much warmer than the X axis Motors.
I don't think the issues are related , but since I don't know what the problem is ......I obviously don't know what it isn't .
This is causing me to spend a lot of time on sand and primer to get the surface prepped for paint. And even bigger , I don't want the machine to bite the dust in the middle of this rushed time.
