I’ve just been told 75% of my time spent on this log doesn’t count (apparently), so instead of dedicating probably an extra two hours of unlogged time to write a clean version, yall gonna get my thoughts DAILY, straight from the source, raw updatelog content. just kidding, there’s now a world limit so im just gonna speedrun this (since no one reads this and i read my own raw thoughts)

Mostly electronics work, on 7/1/2026 night, realized that I can actually gently pry off the jst connector shells, removed a good amount of them. Wrote a devlog, worked on tuning the extruder filament tgrabbing gears. After dinner, printed some stuffs, then started adding the corexy belting path. Spent a long time, didn’t really feel very motivated at 3:42 AM and ended the day almost finishing assembling the belts and with not working extruders.

Woke up early, last night wasn’t a fun night, increased the gear scale, finally actually put the corexy belt together. The filament gears now grab, though it does skip when too much filament is put in. After fixing the shaft collar and adding it back, reassembled the test tool and it attaches! The corexy does have quite a bit of friction, but the tool is assembled! However, waiting on terminal stuffs. Rest of the day is starting the electronics stuff.

Motors not moving? Removed wires from housing and fix phases, motors now moving! Wondered why one motor was faster, then they both became slow. Fans wired, heaters wired, more testing, heaters can heat up!

Bad sleep schedule strikes again, some soldering and added the limit switches, more stuff sent to print. A bit of config editing later and the corexy moves properly now! With the correct x and y axis! Filament doesnt really grab very well, idk.More intense filament testing, extruder can reach 230C!

Really late start, more tool printing, more tool assembly, all tools and extruders are assembled now!

Schedule and todo list made, support bracket set to print, top shaft supports made a printed, belts tensioned again. Some fixing later, two part inlet case CAD done and sent to print and attached, second tool head also wired up.
There’s your week of updatelogs compressed into a format because theres a character limit. From now on, all devlogs will be the updatelogs and not be as extra refined, since I don’t get time counted for writing these, and it’s really a pain and insult to just say that more than a whole 24 hour day worth of actual work doesn’t count because someone added a time limit per log out of nowhere.
