Separate names with a comma.
Just for your interest: Kai Parthy, the inventor of the first famous woodfill and stonefill filaments, created a new full-metal hotend that...
For joining/splicing 1.75 mm filament you want to take a piece of teflon tube whose inside diameter is a little bit wider than the filament itself...
Depends on the manufacturer. Surely IGUS and other quality brands are much better than the cheap Chinese knockoff. IGUS is excellent!
By speaking of 8 bit electronics it is only meant that the classic ATmega2560 and similar boards are slow as hell. There is simply no fast 8 bit...
Mike, you are correct with many statements and I see your point, but it's the truth that 8 bit is indeed too slow for higher stepping rates than...
Did anyone of you thought of upgrading from a 8 bit to a 32 bit printer electronics? There are a lot of advantages of 32 bit over 8 bit (for...
Man that looks like a very neat addition to every 3d printer. Will keep it in mind to adapt it for my own printer design.
Guys I want to thank you for sharing your experiences with Simplify3D. I'm a long time user of Cura, KISSlicer, and Repetier Host, and very happy...
Hi, Is it know which size (width or diameter) they use for the four Z-axis rods? From the videos it looks like 10mm or so to me.
I've wondered the same. Very curious and I hope there will be some updates on that new filament very soon.
The more I think about BigBox the more I want to modify. :D Dual cooling fan on the extruder and LED illumination are a must, of course, and easy...
Buy a cheap LED strip on eBay and stick it on the side panels of the printer. Please keep in mind it has to be 24V since BigBox's PSU is 24V.
Don't you mean that fan on the left hand side in this picture? [IMG]
Both technologies have their pros and cons. Personally I wouldn't call direct drive that much superior. It also depends on what you want to do...
Great to see progress being made so fast.
They use the good RUMBA board. With an properly closed heat chamber you can easily reach temperatures from 50 to 55 °C which is quite good for...
Ha, maybe, although I don't find it too bad but also had some crashes here and there. Nevertheless it's too limited for me and I won't continue to...
I'm a long time MoI3D user but development of that tool is slow and it needs years that it comes up with new functions. Do you have any experience...
The majority of my 3d prints will be in ABS as I can acetone vaporize them easily.
Well, then I think it's "123D Design" to be precise. ;)
