NFire Delta

A Delta printer currently on load from Phil Willis. We are in the process of getting this printer fully tuned and making suitable slicer profiles available.

Note If you are using this printer and generate the gcode yourself, please ensure you DO NOT have M84 in the end gcode. M84 disables the stepper motors, if the stepper motors are disabled at the end of the print, the print head will dive into the print or print bed, potentially destroying the print, or worse, damaging the printer. After the print is complete and the print head is below 40deg.C, the print head should be parked on the bed and only then M84 called. The Octoprint instance has a macro button to park the head safely. Please use.
