Re: I3 Issues

Yes, it snaps fairly easily. :-S It's the roll that came with the printer when I bought it. I'll have to buy a better quality brand.

Re: I3 Issues

thanks for the link - I've done quite a bit of tweaking to it using that, but 2 things:

I3 Issues

Fired up my I3 last night to spin off a few parts, and much to my dismay something went wrong -

Re: Extruder plstic holder is starting to bend downwards

Mine is doing the same thing. I've printed 2 items on it :-(

Is there any way to get the STL files for the mount? I would like to print a few for testing.

thanks,
