Hi mr hec 14 !
i had fate in those brackets
what do you mean by profiles ??
hi again!
mr hec 14 i have another question
do you Khow a way for squaring aluminum extrusions ?
Hi Farzad,
sorry for coming back so late. My prof. work load is pretty high right now. Vacation time!
Yes, that was confusing me too. I think, I have an idea, you will not like it!
You might watch this video about manufacturing aluminum profiles.
If you do, make sure to read the English captions. I’ll bounce back to that.
Started taking pictures of the angles, I can provide.
I get back to you next weekend. Sorry, no time right now.
I did it guys
(Cost me almost a kidny )
I grinded all aluminium extrushions (for making them flat)
And with the help of a wire edm machine and little bit of sanding
i made them perfectly square
Also with a waterjet cnc cutter i did cut a base plate for y caradge (design based on voron swichwire and pursa mk3)
I did grynding on this one too and its prefectly flat 
I do still have some work to do on it
I will keep you updated

I think this is way more then good enough since you will have more play on the fasteners which means you can easily correct this when you build your machine.
Thats awesome
Thank you
Iam working on this machine
I will keep you updated
Hi there
I orderd some t nuts
And as you can see they are bended
Is this going to be a problem ?
And also
Do i need a torque meter for Tighten the screws ?
No its taking things a bit far now. No torque wrench needed, just common sense. If those nuts still enter the profile and the bolt goes in without too much trouble they also are still ok.
We are not talking rocket science here and there is no reason to look for problems that do not exist. Stay practical and use common sense.
Hi Farzad,
…well, makes me feel much older…
Sorry for coming back so late. I had the Klipper blues. Last project, I was involved went (in my eyes) into the gutter. So, I’ll be carefully doing stuff here.
Regarding the video link I posted above: I guess, something went wrong during the straightening process step! Next problem was a bad quality check.
Your profile belongs to the recycling bin, sorry.
After your grinding job, I guess your profile looks like this
Uploading: ALUMINIUMPROFIL-20X40_hcet.png…
Not good to get the frame straight!
I have to apologize. I promised sending you angles! Sorry again, we don’t use 20mm+multiples profiles in the company. We use 40mm+multiples. I wasn’t aware that you are using 20mm. Again sorry, stupid me.
My buddy at the company (he does all the aluminum profile work) is supposed to come back from vacation Monday. I’ll have to ask him, if he can provide 20mm angles. But, I don’t think so!
Questions:
How much weighs that plate?
Can you provide that, using 40mm+multiples profiles? I think, there might be a way to your printer.
What material? Aluminum?
This hole thing is geting out of my budget
Iam going to try with all i have right now
If I succeed i will keep you updated
No its not its aluminum it says Carbon steel with galvanized coating ( in the website that i orderd from )
I did it guys
I did grynd the dly corners that i have made them from laser cuting from 5mm iron sheet
After that i tried to assemble the 3d printer as acurate as posible ( WITH KHIFE EDGE SQUARE)
The key factor was to not tighten scrow of one side to much becuse it will bend the other side
And also cuting the aluminium extrushions with a (WEDM (wire electric discharge machine)) was one of the other key factors
And i realized that no mater how acurate you try to be you should do a skew curection calibration to perfectly calibrate the 3d printer
Iam now facing with other problems but i will ask them in other topics
Thanks #@hcet14 #@3dcase #@LifeOfBrian you guys are so awesome

I have a friend in usa and with help of him i bought this model ( the model is printing from 3d case (calilantern)) im printing it for skew calibration
