@William_Frick printed the best working part of my printer. Thought you should know. (Thanks, dude!)
nawwww :’-)
So, one of the things I didn’t mention (and why I’m really moving on the ingentis project) Is after another frustrating night of failed prints, I broke one of the points the rods connect to. Shut everything down and walked away. I was done. I’d had enough.
A nights’ consideration showed I could ziptie the rod back in place and I gave the printer an ultimatum: Print the replacement part, or else!
Damned if it didn’t oull through. It’s not pretty, it’s not perfect, but it’s Good Enough.

@Mike_Miller walk away, love to fight another day, says the guy who smoked a viki lcd
I didn’t see any lube on those ABS gears. Lube em and keep em ’
The nylon set are pretty much self lubing though.
Roger.
