JohnSL,
Just dropping you a note to say thank you again.
I built my Mini Kossel with a E3D hot end. Then spent a lot of time with clogging and modifying the extruder due to push fit popping out, printing a new Airtripper extruder body, getting a revised design from Jay, printing another body. So, to make a two month long story short, I figured out that I wanted to get longer horizontals and longer diagonal rods to increase the size of my Kossel in the XY dimensions, with less Z height.
Then I was looking at my 3DR Simple knowing I was going to take the Mini Kossel apart, and Wham! I can print the 3DR Simple hot end parts, buy a Ubis hot end and install that on my upgraded Kossel.
I am printing right now the parts for the hot end, I have the jig built to glue the rods, I have the rod materials to make 340mm rods.
The 350mm extrusions are FedEx from Misumi and due Tuesday and Printrbot is mailing me a Ubis hot end.
Yahoo.
Thank you for all the design work you did. Never know how someone is going to repurpose something.
