Description

Wanted to have a way to clean the nozzle before the printout as there's times where the nozzle is pretty dirty. I decided to have it in the front of the bed as the nozzle would be able reach that. Instead of making a separate piece, I added it to one of the corner holders.

I used the brushes from the local HomeDepot (https://www.homedepot.com/p/HDX-Brass-Mini-Brushes-3-Pack-BMB3-HDX/206453088) as I already had some on hand and can always get more if needed.

Currently, I mounted it on the left side of the bed, but I also added a right side as I might move it there.

I also marked this as work-in-progress as I haven't had the chance to upload the changes to my firmware to add the G12 command to my start gcode.

Added pictures of the brush mounted on the right side. I actually rather have the brush on the right side as so it doesn't get in the way of homing.

Added a video with the G12 P1 command. I had set in marlin to do 2 passes and return to the previous point.

Post-Printing

Marlin firmware changes to enable G12 to clean nozzle

In Marlin 1.1.9, there's a section on Configuration.h that enables the G12 command to clean the nozzle. (See http://marlinfw.org/docs/gcode/G012.html for more info)

I made the following changes in Configuration.h to work for me with the brush on the left side (you'll have to tweak/modify the numbers to your liking/configuration):

uncomment this line:

define NOZZLE_CLEAN_FEATURE

I recommend turning this on as it'll return to where the nozzle was before the G12 command was executed

define NOZZLE_CLEAN_GOBACK

Modify/Tweak the numbers to you liking:

define NOZZLE_CLEAN_STROKES 2

define NOZZLE_CLEAN_TRIANGLES 4

define NOZZLE_CLEAN_START_POINT { 200, 0, 11.5}

define NOZZLE_CLEAN_END_POINT { 225, 4, 11.5}

"G12 P1" gcode command with NOZZLE_CLEAN_GOBACK enabled
