tipping...or dumb question

Postby albill » Tue Feb 26, 2013 7:23 am

Hi,

I just got the somewhat assembled frame kit from reprapdiscount for a Hadron and started assembling it. I haven't put the extruder on it but I notice that once I attached the print bed (which is the Y Axis), if I push the bed all the way back towards the motor, it likes to tip off of the three lasercut feet. I do realize that the extruder and the X gantry for it will add weight but I was curious as to whether people have any issues with it tipping backwards at all at times.

No worry, the weight (approx. 2 Kg) of the gantry with the extruder will balance the Hadron.
