    Variable or inter-changeable nozzles

    There may be times when you do not need very high resolution Z, and then the print could be speeded up by having a high volume drip. So it would be good if Peachy could be supplied with a variable drip nozzle or interchangeable nozzles accordingly. In addition, there must be a way of calibrating the software for variable/inter-changeable nozzles and hence varying Z.

    Software know how fast the water drop and it ajust according. So i'm pretty sure you'll be able to change the nozzle to get more drip and/or use a pump like the Pro version.

    Nozzle? While they might have changed things, at the start of the kickstarter, the drip rate was controlled with a little turn valve, so you'd set it to "low precision" mode by cranking it wide open or thereabouts.

    And the calibration would be inputting the dimensions of the container. The software detects the individual drips, which go through a sensor, which then connects into the computer's microphone jack.

    true, forgot about the valve... so yes, you'll be able to ajust fast/slow depending on the valve setting.

    By chance you are there Compro01
