Tutorial: Orbiter filament runout sensors on RatOS
I’ve been a big fan of the Orbiter extruders (Massive shout out to Róbert Lőrincz for all his orbiter projects) for quite a while and I decided it was time to add filament runout sensors to all my printers. Quite frankly I was done with babysitting the end of a roll. The sensor is really…
