Printing some more droid parts, as per usual, and there is a feature in PrusaSlicer 2.6.0. that's REALLY handy, saves time, and filament.
The latest version can be found here.

Just got a K1 Max and been running Orca with great results, gonna give this a try with the Prusa slicer. Thanks for all the great tips

Hi Gordon, really interesting as always 😊. Will you be able to offer the files for RA-7 for sale at all? Always looking for a new droid project 😊!

Thanks! awesome tip

[@quadfather7353]

Is there a certain setting to make the supports happen or did you have to do something weird to do that?

How is your CR-10 S5 working as old as it is now. I have one, but because of electric problems caused by a solar install I've had my equipment unplugged for over a year now.
I had an issue the last time I used the S5 and hope I can resolve it. What software (Marlin?) do you have that is running PrusaSlicer 2.6? Do you have a video on it?.... I'll search through to see.
I'll need to find some videos to help troubleshoot this big printer so I can use it again. Last time I printed it printed half the object on the bed and half started in the air about 2 or 3mm's above the bed.
Thank you for the great video.

Still works great! Had my first problem with it recently but it was an easy fix. I'll post a video about it in a few days. Otherwise, worked great. Actually pruning with it as I write this. Not sure what firmware it has but I am using the newest prusa slicer for slicing my models

[@davidthompson9359]

@@gordontarpley I wonder if you could take your CR10 S5 and turn it into a diy CoreXY?

[@franzsembdner8373]

nice, do you know if there is a setting for this/how its called?

[@gordontarpley]

It comes on by default. I'm actually not sure how to disable it lol.

[@jakeiven1985]

how do you get 2.6?

[@gordontarpley]

You'll have to hunt around on the page. It was a giant pain in the arse to find it the first time but it's on there someplace. The page is linked in the description and there should be a link to grab it somewhere on that page.
