I'm still waiting for the PTFE Tubing, I am getting mixed information so I'll probably try and install it with the tubing as thats how it was like before it broke.
Thanks for all the help I'll keep...

I just ordered some 3mm OD, 2mm ID PTFE tube and 2 new nozzles for each extruder! Hoping it will fix it!
One quick question, tried to loosen the right extruder (the one I don't really use) by...

Someone who posted earlier said it's vital to have the PTFE otherwise it will ruin my hot end? You may be right too but as I'm new to 3D Printing and have had 2 opposing suggestions I'm not entirely...

Thanks, I found some of the same tubing and two nozzles on Amazon, spent £7 altogether lets hope it fixes it!

Can someone help me find the nozzle with PTFE Tube attatched?

Ah thank you so much! I get that now, I'll get some PTFE and a new nozzle and let you know if I encounter any problems.

This sounds a bit confusing without pictures as I'm not entirely sure about the terminology yet as I haven't had it all that long, but I'll give it a go you've been very helpful!

That helps a lot!
Can I not buy the nozzle with the PTFE Tube attatched @CTCWarrantyUSA? If not, how do I disconnect it from the aluminium block?
Many thanks.

I can only find nozzles by themselves when I search? What would I search for?

Would replacing the PTFE Tube work? If so how do you install it?

I did a preheat to 205C, but as soon as it reached it I unscrewed it, should I have left it a little longer?

I think replacing the stainless steel tube is beyond my knowledge, is buying a new nozzle and PTFE tube a better idea? Where does the tube go does it just stick up inside the hole the nozzle threads...

Ah I see thanks for the help, I'll soak it in acetone tomorrow. My extruder is making a clicking noise when I load the filament, so I'm guessing there's a jam somewhere.

What does that do? Help feed the filament? Thanks for the help! I didn't want to accidentally dissolve it in-case it was important!

Hi all,

I have a CTC Makerbot Replicator 2X that I have had for a couple of months, and it has just jammed for the first time. I took the nozzle off to soak it in acetone to clear the jam, but it...

It's my first printer and I've only had it a few weeks! It's been good so far, no problems with the printer itself just my settings that I have had to tweak. Like warping issues, extruder not hot...

Great thanks for the help, I'll keep you updated.

That slow? Okay thanks!
I have a CTC Dual Extruder, based off the Makerbot Replicator 2X

What speed would you recommend? I think it was on about 40mm/s extruding speed and 40mm/s travel can't remember though

I have had a bad print with PLA, what is meant to be smooth has turned out very bumpy and rough. Any causes for this? any solutions?

Hi,

I'm new to 3D Printing and I'm trying to make something my friend made on SolidWorks.
Here is the problem: It completes the raft, and begins to make the base of the print, and then stops...
