Thanks guys.

Do you use glue to assure prints stick? How routine of maintenance do you do?

Re: Materials printed on M2

If you switch to a .5 nozzle, can you simply select it as an option in the slicing software, or do you have to take other steps to assure successful prints?

Re: Materials printed on M2

Which wood material have you used, and at what temperature?

I saw the M2 could operate up to 250*C according to here - http://makergear.wikidot.com/m2​, and the wood/stone composites were higher than this.

Buying the M2: Help me start out right

Hey guys.

Considering buying the M2 after looking at a lot of similarly priced printers. Is this a smart move?

If I buy the printer, what should I do to assure the best quality and longevity of the machine? Set-up, extruders, LED screen, encasement, temperature, etc.

Thanks
