The developers/vendors of some programs/drivers did not use the Beta period to update their drivers for Apples El Captain 10.11.
One is ReplicatorG, used for 3D...

Oh, would this be like buying a new car and driving it around with one of those little spare tires on it forever? Sure it works if that's what you'll settle for.

I tried to find a download to re-install Yosemite (old OS) all sites refer me to the Apple App store and it says "not available". I would really like to use Yosemite, El Captain seems unstable.

After checking several leads I still can't find the correct .2 or.3 nozzles to fit my "orignal" Mark 8 extruders that came with my CTC printer.
The problem seem to be the size of the INPUT hole, it...

Thanks,

Bobby,
I checked it out and it looks like they only sell the .4mm nozzles. I'm looking for smaller ones but thanks for your reply.
Don

Many thanks to all who responded to my last question about nozzles. I've been out of commission with eye problems.

Now I need to know where to purchase smaller nozzles, .1, .2, .3. that will work...

Hello,
MY flash forge extruders have .4 nozzles on them, would it improve my very small detail parts if I changed to a smaller nozzle size?
I'm don't understand what difference the different size...

I will let MakerBot know first thing in the morning. I spent most of the day making sure of my findings. I'm surprised this is not "number one" on their help desk check list....

I've been having very bad scans with my MakerBot digitizer, even Tech support could not find the problem. They sent me a new machine and that had the same "bad scan" problem.
Yesterday my computer...

I've been going crazy trying to level the nozzles on my dual extruders so I decided to level everything that I could possibly check on my printer. I found that my extruder carriage was not level but...

First off I want to thank you for your kind help and support. It is really appreciated.
The new motherboard arrived today, i installed it and it works. I am doing the first "test print"...

Make sure you get the "old" version of the Motherboard schematic. The old version has the thermocouple wires SCREWED to the hot end. The new version shows the "little bulb" type thermocouples. This...

OK, Pin to pin is zero volts. Each pin to ground is zero volts. Not connected to anything.
I'll Google the schematic.

It's hard to see in the pictures but in the top left corner is where the temperature sensor wires connect. These wires are attached to the hot end with a screw, each attachment screw has two wires...

OK, here's the pictures.

No luck on that "fix" tried it all, no luck.
I did find a USA based company that will help. I described the problem and was told it is a bad motherboard. I ordered a new one.

I found out that the temp sensors are built into the motherboard.

A little follow up....
I got brave and unplugged all the connections from the mother board except the "power in" and the LCD display. It still beeped and said "over heated".
I have to think it's a...

Hi,
I'm new to 3D printing and bought a CTC dual clone off eBay and am having trouble(s). The seller is useless and will not help so I'm on my own.

It worked very good for two days.
