See posts 15 & 17 at http://www.soliforum.com/topic/9996/spa … the-press/ . I've also put up a photo of the original nozzle in #10 at http://www.soliforum.com/topic/10440/ex … -clogging/ where you can see the conical shape at the top of the nozzle. This shape is important to mating with the heat break inside the aluminum block.

I just got my E3Dv6 conversion finished a couple days ago (printing again at least, needs more calibration). Lack of reliable spare parts was a big reason for me to convert.

Can anyone confirm these nozzles work?

I'm looking to use a hardened nozzle for more abrasive printing materials.

It looks like its just a standard M6 threaded nozzle. If that's the case, these should work nicely:

I wouldn't think you'd need to replace it for a clog, although I'm a noob too. I've clogged my Press several times so far but I've been able to clear it every time with a piece of stiff copper wire. I push it straight down from above like it was a piece of filament, I can usually force it to extrude a bit of melted ABS then pull the wire out and it will have a glob of ABS on it. I clean the wire and repeat, letting it have some time to heat up in there and prodding/scraping around with it.

Sometimes it takes several tries before I can get the filament to feed again, but I've never not been able to clear it.

That is the whole hot end though, not just the nozzle.

There a group of people installing E3Dv6 nozzles for the press. You can find the whole thread and convo here soliforum.com/topic/9709/e3dv6-on-solidoodle-press/

Does anyone have details on the correct replacement nozzle for the press? Does it share nozzle with any other common printers? I've managed to clog mine up already.
