Topic: Fully Assembled Filastruder received - FA20

I got my Kickstarter Fully Assembled Filastruder today.

Serial:  FA20

Contents:  Filastruder, power supply, extrusion end kit, spare nozzle (looks like the .3mm I asked for a spare; 1.75 on the unit), and baggie of pellets (weighed in at 18oz, so 2oz more than a pound).

Unit was wrapped in bubble wrap, and placed in a box of packing peanuts.  Looks well cared for by the postal service.

It's as big as I expected it, and the case is pretty solid looking, but the one thing that I find a little disconcerting is that the nozzle is recessed into the case.  This will make it a bit challenging to replace the nozzle when I want to extrude .3mm for my 3Doodler when it comes in.  I'll need to explore the case to see how easily it can be changed out.

I look forward to working with it and see how well it does, but judging by the other responses, it should do pretty good.

Tim,
If I have issues with the unit, do I go to you or OS Printing?
