Hello. My name is Brendon and I just bought a Max v2. I am a CAD software developer by trade and I spend a couple days a week volunteering at my kid's high school where we have several 3D printers. I teach the kids how to program, work in CAD, build stuff, whatever it is they want to do. We have two old 3D Touch machines, a FormLabs Form 1, an AirWolf XL (which belongs to a student), and a partially finished Mendel 90 that the kids are building. I decided to buy the Rostock for myself to build and then bring it in since we don't have any delta printers and I would like the kids to learn all the different types of 3D printers if possible. My goal is to make this Max v2 a nylon printer since we already have other printers for PLA and ABS. To that end, I have ordered an E3D v6 hot end to install right off the bat. I've also purchased motor dampeners and Noctua fans. This evening I opened the box and put together the base and power supply. So far so good!
