AWESOME CUSTOMER SUPPORT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I now have in my hands a brand new 40mm fan with working connector! Words cannot express my simplistic joy right now! So, so, very glad I went with MakerGear instead of the other 'ulti' one I was considering. THANKS KAREN, RICK @ Co. for making this dec...

Ahhh haaa, D-OH!! The light bulb goes on! Okay, now I understand. Sorry I was thinking standalone, with just one file in the root of the SD card and then hit the print button... ;) So in other words, you tell the M2 via the 'Machine Control Panel' to use the SD card as the *.g code source instead of...

Hi again, Mr. noob here... Created g code in Simplify3d and started a print from inside Simplify3D to make sure all was printing okay first. Then I wanted to try out printing from just the SD card, so I made sure I used less than 8 alpha-numeric characters with the .g extension. No PC connected, pow...

Hi Guys, just thought you would like to know that I just diagnosed the red + wire coming from the 40mm fan was not crimped correctly and caused the 40mm fan to be intermittent. I need to know where I can purchase the fan side of that tiny connector with separate pins so I can solder them up and have...

Super! Thanks for the 24v diagram! Now, for another question... If I am just printing with PLA only on blue tape (no heated bed) what might the Kill-A-Watt read? 60 watts? 80 watts? Obviously you can see my gears turning... Less watts = smaller & less expensive battery power required. :) Thanks in a...

Lol! Tomshardware is the exact post I was referencing. I've been in the IT world before and my OS is definitely Win 7 64bit, but it would have been nice if it was as simple as that. I run 3D Max 64 bit plus other 64 bit software on it too. Still waiting for Simplify3D to answer. Meanwhile I'll try t...

Mr. Noob here, but have been learning all about 3D Printing for over a year now. I am trying to install my new and first time, mind you, download of the recent version of the Simplify3D 64-bit Win 7 software and it barfs with an error each time I try to run it after the installer is done. Yes, my Ac...

Super, thanks for that info.

Can you tell me what the 24v power supply specs are and its multiple outputs?

Thanks in advance again!

Noob Rickster here, as I just received my MakerGear M2 last week. :D I've been watching the 3D Printer world intently for the last 18 months and am very happy with my final decision to purchase an M2. It's built like a tank! Thanks to everyone who helped me decide while I was in 'lerking' mode, AND ...
