    Its hard to tell, the iron is 3mm and the aluminum is 6mm. Personally, I'd probably go with the aluminum because of the way it looks. Also, not sure where you plan to used the printer, but iron will...

    Sounds like one of two things, the thermistor is reading the wrong temperature, or you have a clogged nozzle. In my experience, you shouldn't have to use a huge amount of force to push ABS through a...
