Not so sure water and heated bed sound the best combination with all that flexing about? </p><p>P.s. I had some borasilcate glass cut to size the other week... 110C in just over 2 mins and not a crack in sight!</p>]]></content>

			<content type="html"><![CDATA[<div class="quotebox"><cite>Staffordknot wrote:</cite><blockquote><p>Are there threaded fixing points you can bolt it to something with?</p></blockquote></div><p>there is 4 corner-orientated m3 boltholes in the top of the water block. Or you can clamp on the brass water barbs. </p><p>Oh - and re somewhere else you asked about bed levelling - each nozzle has its own pair of grub screws. Like any dual setup.. the idea is to pick a nozzle and level the bed against that - then align all other nozzles to the bed/nozzle #1.... yes alignment is importnat as the other 4 nozzles are very close by so any height issues will result in print problems/knocking prints/floating threads etc...</p>]]></content>

			<content type="html"><![CDATA[<p>However you want to is the short answer. </p><p>Of the beta testers - so far theres been about 5 different setups to date... One of them posted today involved 4 brass bushings, 16 screws, holding together 6 printed pieces...</p><p>And then theres the 99 different ways you can choose to drive them... Some are going single motor with complicated sliding pinion gear setups... others are using Azteeg X3-Pro&#039;s being lazy... others are using slave boards.. some are using port expanders and liberal applications of &#039;chewing gum and gaffa tape&#039; <img src="https://www.soliforum.com/img/smilies/wink.png" width="15" height="15" alt="wink" /></p><p>Then theres the different approaches people are taking with the &#039;plumbing&#039;... </p><p>In short - these things are a few weeks out of the factory and those in the wild are considered Beta&#039;s. Theres no official mount, and theres not enough data, hard or empirical, as yet to offer any constructive advice.</p><p>So my closing statement is &#039;all in good time&#039; <img src="https://www.soliforum.com/img/smilies/wink.png" width="15" height="15" alt="wink" /> Give it a week or two more and some viable designs will have fallen out of the process...</p>]]></content>

			<content type="html"><![CDATA[<p>Has anyone bought a krakon beta? I was considering it but wondered how it was mounted? I want to know its easy to mount? I would love to see a photo of how it mounts</p><p>Also i presume that each head is levelled to each other using the grub screws? Is this difficult? It strikes me that if your bed isnt completely level that this could be a real pain?</p><p>Also are the other heads likely to drag through the print?</p><p>Cheers</p><p>P.s. I love my e3d hot end!</p>]]></content>
