Anyone Ever Changed to an All Metal Extruder?

[jasonfreeland]

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 better than the others, but they all have "issues".

If anyone is interested we are developing an all metal hotend upgrade for FlashForge printers.

There is a water cooled design I saw https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/o...t-end#activity that looks to have it beat, but much more complex.

Thomas Sanladerer has made a very interesting video on hat OPAM that clearly killed any interest I might have on this forever.

I'd seen the review posted, but haven't had the time to watch it.

Jasonfreeland did you replace your stock hotends with the all metal? Any updates? Tips? Do's or Don'ts?
Where to buy?

Thanks

Has anyone been able to go to an all metal extruder? The teflon tubes are my biggest headache, next to adhesion issues.

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.
