Re: Octoprint/LCD
I like the others love Octoprint! I have it setup to control a relay so the printer will shut off after a print. I will be posting pics in a few days of my modifications I've done lately with the relay. Here is a pic of my modified power supply that now houses the relay.

Question- is it more helpful to quality of print and life of machine if it were on a Rock solid surface and or mounted to one? Or, would it be better for it to be on some heavy duty springs that give a little? I know that for some large equipment it will be mounted on springs or else it will have pa...

Re: Dual extruder pin valves
Thanks Dale, I had found those a while ago so knew they were on here somewhere but now to actually go through the process, thanks for the link since I don't think I had read that one. jimc- yeah will do. first impression is that the size of the filament is not consistent and that probably won't help...

Re: Dual extruder pin valves
Yeah, at first I was tempted, but really, I don't at this time see the need for duals in what I do. I did order the E3Dv6, and a few nozzle sizes, I've got some Taulman filament coming, (bridge and T-glase) and will be wanting to get some of their Tritan filament. Also ordered the MG v4 PTFE, I will...

First 3D Print made in space
Thought you all would like this!
Now the question is- what is that build plate made from and does it work on earth? Interesting design with the springs on it so they can slide it in.
