Dual extruder
Re: Dual extruder
either 2 color prints or dissolvable support. the only waterbased support material is pva but it really doesnt work. i dont know of anyone who has ever gotten pva to work right. its really just a headache. everyone seems to use hips now and dissolve it away with limonene.
Re: Dual extruder
I would think that would be one possibility, but not the only one. Another is printing something with more than one color.
Can anyone give an overview of how you design/slice/print with a dual extruder setup for either support material or a second color?

Re: Dual extruder
I would get the dual extruder to be able to print flexible material like Ninjaflex into a mainly ABS part and vise-versa.. Not sure what exactly I would use it for, but maybe built-in hinges and such.Capt.

Re: Dual extruder
There hasn't been an update on the availability of a dual extruder for the M2. Any status on when it might be ready for market?
