    2nd Print 

    Hello,

    This is my second print. I changed from repsnapper to skeinforge to generate de G-Code. It’s nightmarish but the results are obvious:

    Now I’ll have to play a bit with skeinforge setting to get the best of my mendel. And wait for another 2 weeks for new thermistors because the hot end wasn’t very stable and when I was trying to fix it I broke the second thermistor in 3 days… And now I’m out of money for the next 2 weeks so… My 3D printer is jinxed for sure… See ya later…

    New hot-end, new x-Axis :) 

    Hello,

    It has been a while since I posted something because I was waiting for my new parts o replace the broken hot-end.

    So I finnaly got my hot end parts and started doing some test prints. The first “traditional” issue I found out is the wrapping due to the lack of heated bed (Note to self: fix heated print bed).

    Hopefully I’ll have a new X axis soon, I also bought a new set of bearings to guarantee everything will go as smooth as possible :) . and I’ll probably redesign it to be able to have the extruder and the laser mounted at the same time.

    So it doesn’t look bad at all, even the holes look really good so maybe the next prints will be even better. :)
