Whenever I throw away a spool, I replace a number on a whiteboard. Best app ever.

Hey Guys,

Buy some Bake-O-Glide Anti-Stick-Paper and wrap it around the joint. Now apply the head and nothing will stip to the heat source.

PS: I hope my palette will arrive soon. https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/mo ... ng-evolved

It depends on how tight you dial in the idler. On PLA you can let it grip very gentle but on the stiffer stuff it needs to tighten a littlebit more. The wear in also reduces the diameter of the drivegear. But this takes time.

I use the principle which Richard pointed out in his blog: http://richrap.blogspot.de/2011_06_01_archive.html A Headgun is okay, but for massproduktion a block where you can join a connection in 5 seconds is much better. I even abused a machine for plastic optical fiber splicing by thermal fusion bu...

Better check the dimensions of the PSU and use the digital tapeline in netfapp to double-check the clearance. It might be a littlebit of. Right now I am printing a featured thing from thingiverse and everything looks good so far. The PSU is cold with the new fan but the existing fan shroud makes thi...

There is zero need to watercool the steppers, there is actually an anti-need to do so. Well, if you print PLA, everything might be fine. But if you try printing fast, reliable with more challenging materials the hot drivegear will drive you crazy as the filament will get to soft where it should be ...

Hey Jules! :D I replaced the fan within the PSU to the Noctua NF-A6x25 FLX 60mm 24V FAN. The noiselevel is acceptable while sitting on the table. An online housing construction service is currently building an aluminium case with a perforated plate in the front and a place for two Noctua 60mm fans r...

Did you try to print thin parts with a raft?

Its not the belt but the extruder stepper is not fastened enough!

Hello, I am the new guy. I bought a used makergear m2 (24v v3b) from an auction. The prior owner had to shut down its business due to an insolvency. The fans are my main concern with this rather new machine. I could measure 65 dB of noise while sitting idle. I want to make this machine as silent as ...
