It has the alu-dual cooling bar and threaded thermal barrier upgrade, that's why I asked if anyone has threaded thermal barriers. I think I'm going to build some kind of bracket to help me align them.

Again, mine has threaded thermal tube and threaded cooling bar, not set screws so this video is no help. With the set screw version its ago easy to align I don't even have to take it apart, just...

Anyone here with threaded thermal tubes? I have my nozzles pretty close by pure luck but I want to get them perfectly level and I have all metal extruder with threaded thermal tubes not set screws....

I've been trying to get Makerbot desktop 3.6 to run on a fresh Windows 7 install, and it won't work no matter what I do. Makerbot support has no clue, and they can't help me. I installed the latest...

Yes, every print I do is a custom profile. It's not the reason 3.6 won't slice though, I tried standard profiles. I think it might be because I didn't have skeinforge installed. Think that could be...

I'm going to mess around with the bridge settings and see if I can have it make very thin lines. Is the new version significantly better?
It won't slice on either one of my laptops with Win7 so I...

Nothing was ever a secret, the second post that starts with "Makerware settings:" is the settings I used to print it. Anyways it was printed with glowfill, with 2 shells, with dynamic speed on. The...

I'm using version 2.4 because 3.6 doesn't want to work on either of my laptops. Just won't slice and it will say error slicing on any object. Are there significant improvements in the newer versions...

I printed this HALO iphone 6 case in glowfill, face down (smooth areas were face-down on glass), and during the bridging process, none of the lines fused together... just strings. The rest of the...

Hello everyone. This is my first print after upgrading my CTC crap maker; it's the HALO iphone 6 case from thingiverse. I swapped out the stock carriage with a replicator 2x carriage so that I can...

Does anyone know where I can get some threaded thermal barrier tubes/barrels? I have the original makerbot ones, but they are too short for the alu-dual cooling block, and two nuts won't fit on it to...

I want to revise mine, and want to say I want an fdm the motors of which are powered by gasoline and uses the carbon from the exhaust to make graphene or graphene oxide.

Huge selection, and some things are good price. Heard nothing but good things about your filaments. No discount for quantity orders so consider that. You might sell more quantity. I personally don't...

Oh duh! I wasn't thinking straight, I'm using it just to lower the heat in the surrounding area of the plastic that gets laid. I have a dual replicator based bot, and I was wondering what happens if...

Well the insulation is also to protect the printed parts and minimize any heat traveling upwards. PLA is very sensitive.

I was thinking more along technical lines. Wouldn't the ideal hotend have a very small transition zone? Like a really tiny hotend?

Hey everyone, I have some kapton tape and a silicon sleeve for the hotend, and I was wanting to rewrap the kapton tape because it's a little bit damaged. I have always seen the kapton tape wrapped...

What's the best all metal hotend design out there why? What is ideal? For example do you want a long or short transition zone? Do you want the material (let's use pla in this example) melted closer...

Yes, latest sailfish. I got some good prints in the past, its just too unreliable. So that's why I'm looking into other hotends. I have the means to build my own so I want to do that after studying...

My CTC can't print very fast because it will skip steps, and also I can't have retract too high, because the grip on the filament will slip, even though I have upgraded the extruder with a spring...

-What is the most interesting thing you have seen done with a 3D printer or 3D printing technology?
To me the most interesting thing would be 3D printed microscopic 'Zoos' to design bacterial...
