Batch B03Before you start
Before you start Batch B03¶
Before you start · Batch B03 — A/B drive units + front idlers
Time: 8.5 h (1 plate) — PrusaSlicer 2.9.6 estimates.
Sessions: 1 plate start (~5 min hands-on, 8.5 h unattended) + ~15 min inspect and bin.
Prerequisites: Gate B passed (Step B00.7 — these are F695 flange seats; the caliper and insert rows
run early, on what is already on the bench). B02 is not a print prerequisite: its accent [a]_cable_cover,
[a]_z_chain_retainer_bracket and [a]_tensioner_left/right printed one batch earlier, at B02, and are
already in 04-A / 04-B.

Read first
- Checkpoint after B03: the F695 flange seats caliper 15.00 mm now, and the two halves of each drive unit must close flat with no gap. On kit day the real F695-2RS (13 mm OD, flanged) bearing/spacer stacks must drop into those seats without reaming. (625-2RS is the Z-drive bearing, B01 — not this batch.)
- Most commonly reprinted here:
a/b_drive_frame_lower— the bearing seats are the tightest fit in the machine. - A and B share one plate (merged 2026-09-06, one swap instead of two), so a failed plate costs both drive units. Watch the first layer before you walk away from an 8.5 h print.
