Topic: How hot did it have to get for this to happen?
Went upstairs for a quick bite to eat shortly after starting a print job, just as I was finishing up caught a whiff of something odd, came back downstairs to find this...
Printer has been running with the Chimera since the first or second batch made it to the USA and up to now no problems at all. Controller is a Azteeg X3 Pro, best guess is something on the board smoked allowing the hot end to go into thermal runaway, quite surprised to find the heater block becoming a puddle of slag, how hot does it have to get to melt aluminum!?!?!?!
Now I have to haul it out of the enclosure and open the bottom to check out the controller, hope I don't need to print anything larger than the SD3 can handle till I get this sorted.
