  This is a 5Kg spool roller. The roller on the right is transparent to aid alignment.

  Glad you are liking it. And for anyone who has not seen it, here is a gif showing its location.

  The cool thing about the temp tower is that after you put it on the bed you can customize all its settings.

  Can I use RepRap 3.2.2 firmware with a Duet2 in MatterControl 2.22.05? (there is no selection in the printer firmware option)

  @thekarlmiller I do this with a Duet3, should be the same with a Duet 2 board. You need to set the printer parameters in MatterControl for your specific printer. If there is no preset, choose Other > Other.

  You will have to modify your gcode post export. Use Notepad++. Scroll down your your start code until you see M400, M107. Insert G29 S1 into the gcode and save it.

  

  Upload the gcode through the DWC as normal afterwards.

  Let me know if you have any problems.

  I can translate primitives, but not premade stl files. Try right clicking on the object, Modify>Translate>Transform. And click the apply button. See if it scales?

  If you turn off 'Sync to Print' you will get what you want.

  PLA is known for high shrinkage, on average you get about 1.6%
  So i now always use PLA Pluss and now only get about 0.2 -0.3% shrinkage
  Remember different brands either have better or bad quality PLA
  I use Esun PLA+ which has very good properties and strong, I have tried Tronxy and I have found it bad & unusable for my models
  Maybe some one could start a post on filaments that work best for there printers and models.

  Im having a similar problem Matter control come to a crawl when adding supports. with no supports then fine
  can not do anything when added supports to any of my models
  and when you do finally get to click on the print it also takes forever to print. either directly or to an SDS card.
  never had this problem on earlier version before May 22 release .
  oh it does work ok on models less that 100 x 100 size
  Printer profile im using is an Enders 3v2
