It’s like the new-age Slap Chop
Are these 48mm caps?
Yes. I’m using my Asora which fits standard FH caps.
I have a design inspired by chrome sitting in my to be protod folder already!
However these would also look really slick with a nice chrome or nickel for sure!
Those look like 50’s wheels and I love it!
Out with the old and in with the new. Last week I was doing some routine maintenance / cleaning and noticed the nozzle was looking dirrrtaaaay. Prints were also showing some artifacts so I figured I had better clean it up. I went to remove the silicone sock and it just crumbled to pieces. Oops!
Kind of neglected cleaning the nozzle for a while. ![]()
So I bought a new tungsten nozzle another hardened steel nozzle and completely new upgraded hot end assembly and some extra silicone socks to have as spares.
Boy it’s so clean! I can’t wait to spit some lines!
That looks a lot better!
Reminds me. I was assembling an extruder upgrade for my Prusa mini a few days ago and discovered my new extruder uses an MR85 for the bearing
That’s awesome! Super cool to see some minis still out there running too!
Love my Mini! I just picked up a very lightly used mini for $200 or so to add to my little fleet.
They shipped it with almost no padding and the x axis came super crooked from getting knocked around in shipping but I was able to get it straight with some bolt adjustments and belt tension.
I’ve got a revo hotend and another identical extruder waiting to install in it whenever I’m finally not sick.
