Welcome to the SeeMeCNC Community

If you have not, you need to select the SeeMeCNC HE280 hot end in firmware.
I would also do a PID autotune.

If you have a meter with temperature probe, check the actual temperature at nozzle vs. reported by LCD on machine.

You could print a fully functional bike frame with carbon fiber filaments from 3DXTech

Cool, I love to see real world applications. Thanks for sharing photos.

I like the fan shroud, might print one for my MAX Metal

(by the way, NICE printer)

What is the diameter if the led ring? I can't remember and I am out of town until Friday.

The LED connection on probe board works fine for LED light ring. That is how I have mine hooked up.

I really like the simple belt attachment on the new carriages Brian, bravo1

Thanks!
I have been trying different things for almost a year, but was never satisfied with anything.
Until one day recently I had a "Ah ha" moment... this design I am pleased with.

nice fan duct design.

On my v2 I used the new pre-made harness to platform and spliced into existing wiring up top, then was able to re-arrange existing wires down at rambo.

Brian, do you have a "conversion" in the works for the Max Metal Platform? (http://www.tricklaser.com/MAX-METAL-Platform-MAXMTL-PLAT.htm) Hi Kevin, Yes, metal balls with M3 studs will be available. I got a few 100 threaded balls in a few months ago but the quality was not acceptable. (Chi...

Just out of curiosity, will they come in other colors?

Only red.

Yes, push pull.

I also only use one mounting screw, then rotate fan down about 10 degrees to direct more air flow over the bottom fin

I am waiting for the new mount for all my v2 printers that will fid the new accl probing board. Please do ASAP :D Here you go... http://www.tricklaser.com/Probe-Board-Adapter-PB-ADPT.htm I have one available for a beta tester, if interested pm me. Will be getting a batch water jet cut in a few week...

You should be probing with it cold.

I have good results with ccvanaughs configuration, but even better pla prints with TWO fans on heatsink, one on each side.

Finally got the probe board mounted up with a Prometheus hot end.
The probing works well, I am impressed.
Sure is quick and easy to swap heads back and forth from stock to Prometheus, thanks to the ball joints, plug on board and auto calibrate

picked up newest parts this morning, assembling hot end and wiring now.
hope to have it installed and printing on my stock v2 tonight.

the lock ring mount holes do not line up with holes on board, the probe board has 3 holes that match spacing of standoff holes on platform (50mm dia. circle, 3 holes equally spaced.) So that would be the mounting points. The platform standoff spacing has been the same since V1. So that means probe b...

check out 3DXTech they have really good specialty filaments with carbon fiber or glass fiber I have used the CF ABS it prints well and is really tough. http://www.3dxtech.com/3dxmax-carbon-fiber-abs-3d-printing-filament/ not cheap, but the best stuff rarely is. you really should have a hard steel no...

I have sample prints that Eric sent me, they look good.
No mixing of colors, nice crisp color changes.
Well done Eric.
