I would dearly love to get rid of the Y axis belts on the two MM3s I work on. Slippage on those is the biggest problem with prints I've run into, on them.

Dalton has the project, thanks everyone
I'm using a pair of those right now and they work very well. Skip the E3D, I use them on another type of printer and they aren't any better than the Micro-Swiss hot ends.
I need the following http://www.ussmatrix.org/yamamoto/YamamotoDateCrest.png made into a 3d plaque (kind of like a challenge coin but leave the original rectangle shape). None of the software I have...
AVN_SWISS, the link is on page 2. They arrived last night and the one print I had time for looked good.
I have shipping confirmation, but they haven't arrived yet for me to install. Should be sometime this week or possibly this weekend to try it out. I'll update the thread with my impressions.
Ordered, thanks.
Kyo, that looks a lot like a beltless Mendelmax 3. Nicely done.
Thanks jf, sounds like a winner.
Only thing I saw was the whole bed, which is a pricey fix
Is there anyplace that sells the bed leveling hardware? One of mine is slipping when you turn the wing nut and I can't seem to fix it. I can change the bed level by holding the wing nut and turning...
Overall, I like it. One thing I had happen was when printing four duplicate objects, it tries to print them all the way individually. It prints the first one normally and the other three are a mass...
Mine is on a Monoprice clone, no issues.
I own one and can verify the timing. I'm always tinker with things and that mount is a work of art.
I'd seen the review posted, but haven't had the time to watch it.
Thanks, I replied over there.
Filament jamming inside of it mostly. There isn't enough of a heat break with it, from the tip and the filament softens into the walls. One set of hot ends I have uses larger diameter PET and is...
There is a water cooled design I saw https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/opam-water-cooled-hot-end#activity that looks to have it beat, but much more complex.
Part of it is getting the stepper a little further from the hot end. I've had softer filaments heat up and wrap around it completely, major pain to clean up.
Edit: I'm in the process of building...

I've seen other also
Has anyone been able to go to an all metal extruder? The teflon tubes are my biggest headache, next to adhesion issues.
Thanks for the video, I ordered one of your beds this morning.
While I have done some work with Tinkercad on a medical project, it was pretty simple. For this I am trying to model these launchers (the above deck part) in 1/350th, for a ship model project I am...
I've been playing with my new one for a few weeks now and am wondering what kinds of improvements would people recommend? I already replaced the hot ends once due to a clog, but now have a spare if...
