I just wanted to post about my experiences with the Bulldog extruder.
I ordered it through their initial Indiegogo campaign, so I would have a good extruder for my new printer. Not sure if I got a lemon or what, but the extruder I received is a piece of junk. It doesn't have the strength to push ABS or PLA filament through even a basic .5mm hot end even at reduced speed, let alone the tighter nozzles that it included (Merlin and Magma). It fails to maintain a good enough grip on the filament to push it through, and when you tighten it enough that it ought to have enough power, it starts jumping gears in its gearbox.
I have a Wade's Accessible extruder on my old printer and I have never had a single problem with it. It works flawlessly. And so I am putting together another one and scrapping the Bulldog until I can get either a refund or replacement from ReprapDiscount.
my bulldog lite is working great with both hot E3D Abs that Pla
these are my images
look also the sharp curve in output
do not tighten the screws a lot of pressure otherwise the thread mill
