Water cooled nozzle

Asbestos fingers or a good idea maybe.

Very nice nozzle design. That was some beautiful footage of your 3D printer in action. but the 3D printer must be expensive I guess.

I posited an idea for doing this on the voltivo forums a while ago, and was handily shot down. Then someone went and made one for the Davinci.

The E3D seems to lend itself well to water cooling: http://forum.e3d-online.com/viewtopic.php?f=7&t=66

Refrigerant cooling anyone?

In nearly all cases, it's good to ignore the naysayers :)

:cool:

Apparently since the stock davinci is incompatible with PLA, since the heat creeps up the hot end, causing premature melting and jams, I had offered that as a solution, and apparently it works.
