Dual Extruder Bowden or not?

Post by thecadman99 » Tue Apr 22, 2014 5:55 pm

I've been working on a dual extruder for my M2. I had planned on using the bowden feed system, but I realized that I don't have any experience setting up an extruder for the bowden system.

After getting used to tuning my M2, I'm worried the bowden will be a pain to tune- anyone have M2 bowden feedback?

I'm running a Kossel with bowden and I think it is the biggest pain. I would go direct drive if I could but on a Delta it's about weight and size.
