One more day to talk myself out of ordering a MakerFarm Prusa i3v. Reading about Collins customer service and seeing it first hand myself really helps as does seeing the community here, the sale is pushing me over the edge. I've seen a lot of opportunities for new things I could make myself and others that I would rather make than buy for a couple years now. Exciting!

eghm,
The Romans had a saying: carpe die (seize the day). Stop thinking and act. Every day wasted thinking about doing something makes it a day later getting done.

I'd like to hear some discussion too about other hotends. I have a J-Head and a Magma and the Magma jammed so many times that I just put it in the "drawer of forgotten" things, never to come out again. I've been seeing this guy push his Prometheus ( http://igg.me/at/Prometheus-Hot-End/x/6004956 ) hotend that has an adjustable "cool zone." It looks very interesting but is a bit pricier than other hotends.
So yea, any Makerfarm users here using other hotends besides the ones Colin has available when we order the printers?Bambu P1S/AMS

I got the 0.4mm nozzle hexagon hotend with my i3V at Colin's initial recommendation. I can vouch for its high quality and I've had no problems with it so far printing about a half of a roll of ABS at fast and slow speeds. Haven't tried PLA yet, but I hope to get a roll soon!

I don't recall having that hexagon as an option when I bought mine. Good to see they are adding hotends to the choices.

Yeah, I didn't have that option either. But it looks like the hexagon is new to this year. Gmay3 has the i3V, which is also a new version of our i3 with some kind of better linear rails for high speed printing. Colin sells the upgrade kit here but it's not cheap: http://www.makerfarm.com/index.php/m...v-upgrade.html
I'm hearing a lot of good about both the hexagon and e3d hotend online so it may come down to the $10 price difference.
