Re: Hot End Thermistor - Which Mounting Hole?

The holes that intersect the bores for the resistors is a relief hole. It allows air and silicone to escape from the bores as you insert the resistors. At the build event, it was suggested to inject the silicone into these side holes to insure there were no voids. These new openings are a relatively...

Re: Photos from the MidWest RepRap Festival

I got back home about 7pm on Sunday and by the time I unloaded there was no work time. Monday was catch up around the house so little was done. I estimate I am 90% done. Now to find some quiet time in the next few days. (My daughter is home on spring break so family get priority)


Good to meet you.

The current kits come with the black finned spacers that snap nicely in place. (or at least in the 15 kits we saw this weekend)

Photos from the MidWest RepRap Festival

I attended the MRRF and was part of the Rostock Max build. I really didn't have a great deal of free time to take photos but I have included a link to my Facebook album of the event. The album is a public album and you don't need to be a Facebook user to view. https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set...

Re: Acrylic Rostock with Enclosure

What are the approximate dimensions of your enclosure? Now that you are using it, would you build it larger or smaller ?
