Re: Jr + E3D V6/Lite6

All these mods are sweet, and although I did get good results using factory settings my printer has sat doing nothing for months so to get back into it I'm going to tear it apart :-p (I've built custom printrbot mods and a kossel mini so I know what I'm in for) . My plan is a bit different I'm going to use all my electronics from a printrbot simple!
My question is, as I know the square root of jack sh*t about 3d modelling, if at all possible could someone create a mount for the ubis hotend in the same fashion as the e3d one with a Bowden clip just above? I found this http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:693196 for sizing. If not no worries at all, I have this http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:731848 converter as a work around.

@xfrNzyx - I'd suggest you to learn some basic 3D modelling tools. Sketchup isn't perfect for 3D modelling but quite easy to learn or either tinkercad which is online tool and dead simple, tinkercad also provide some basic tutorial when you sign in for the 1st time. There are loads more but in my experience the easiest are those two.

Re: Jr + E3D V6/Lite6

I did the v6 upgrade 2 days ago. Everything is working great but I have noticed a lot of stringing. I have cranked up the retraction settings because of it but am still noticing a lot of it. Anybody know anything?
