If you end up taking the hot end approach, you might check out jfkansas site. He makes some kits that might help with that changeover. I think there are some size differences that need to be considered if you are on a QiDi Tech printer. The web site for his store is http://store.wmdproducts.com/

Thanks for the tip DaveB. I'm looking at this widget:

The advantage of an all metal hotend I understand is the ability to print in excess of 250C without damage to the PTFE lining on the stock set-up. That said, I'm not sure this printer can get above 250C?
Whereas a replacement hardened steel nozzle simply reduces wear caused by abrasive filaments.

I do not have an all metal hot end on my QiDi printer. I don't know what its top operating temperature might be.

Finally replaced that darn noisy fan inside the QiDi.
Here is how I did it: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2379468

Added to my project list - thankd DaveB!
I recently discovered a couple of fanless power supplies that I had squirreled away for a different project which appear perfectly suited for this application (photo attached). I plan on swapping the stock one out at the same time for a very quiet solution .

New QiDi "X-One-2"

It's now an enclosed chamber.
Nothing on QiDi websites, no additional info from QiDi support. This is all I can find so far.Last edited by DaveB; 07-21-2017 at 10:56 PM.

Any QiDi users know how to coerce S3D and QiDi to pause for filament change when printing from an SD?

Hey W, did you ever receive and install the multi-color /filament options for your Prusa? If so, how does that work?
