To build and fit an E3D aerostruder hotend to one, or both of the Lulzbot Minis. The Aerostruder setup will allow printing with flexible filaments as well as rigid.
Progress
- 3D printed parts created
- Brass inserts applied
- Extruder motor mounted
- Extruder assembly mounted
- Limit switch mounted
- wiring harness finished
- Electrical testing
- Fitting and alignments, change slicing profiles or E-Steps setting in Marlin firmware if necessary
- Octoprint / Cura slicing profile for Ninjaflex done. Not perfect, but far better than any Ninjaflex we've printed in a long time.
- webcam fitted to crump
Issues
When doing long extrudes (manually pressing the extrude button with more than 50mm extruded), it has a habit of grinding the filament, which does not occur during regular printing. The cause of this is not yet determined, but shouldn't spoil your fun.
