Working Beautifully!
As of 11/13/2015 Not working. RD


I had to completely dismantle the extruder. Someone had jammed a ton of orange PLA in there. I even had to drill it out of the plastic part just above the hot end. There was melted material oozing out all kinds of places that it shouldn't be. The actual hot end was packed full of this carbon type stuff (maybe over heated PLA?). I replaced the .5 extrusion tip with the .35 tip. I believe the .5 is permanently damaged due to abusive scraping of the tip. (Scraping the tip will not unclog the head) LG 5/14/2015

Hasn't been used much. Spool-holding bolt is inadequate to hold a spool. Doesn't appear to be extruding ABS even at 230 C. Investigating. RD 5/8/2015

Nozzle diameter = 0.5 mm

(Note that you will get better results with settings for .35, we are still trying to nail down wether the extruder got switched at some point and will update this when sure)


Filament diameter = 3.0 mm
