Will add some more later with some prints.

Also got my e3d but I have no f. clue on how to mount them smile

Thanks Tagyro.  Any time you need to get together to figure out broken printer stuff, I'm here. 

Off to finish enjoying Friday night!

That should be available by the time you get your printer though.

Is it arduino based like everything else?  I have two months of waiting before I even see my workbench, lol.  Pretty sure I have time to prepare.

You can change the temp in R-H but the max temp limit is set in the firmware so you will want to change the max temp in configuratin.h
When you're ready give me a shout and I'll get you the instructions for flashing the board.

Thanks for the pics, they help a lot.  Not being picky, but can you flip the fans up on the extruder side to reveal which extruder they used?  The e3d hack may already exist.  I was told by support that they used the SD4 extruder setup.  If that's the case, then there is definitely a hack for it.  I have been abused by crappy hotends already.  I'm not doing that again.

Well, the heads suck - they go up to 230 degrees only, and block the printer at that temperature smile
I also ordered a pair of e3d and hope I can install them - maybe we can help each other on that wink
I'm uploading some photos of the heads here: https://mega.co.nz/#F!Zx9EyILT!fYH4ZADsPpzjZTSzq8tNgw - let me know if you want more.

I just ordered a workbench, and I'm having a hard time finding close up pics of the mechanical parts that don't suck.  The three on the SD website are pretty much fluff pics to get you to buy.  I need close-up pics of the extruder/hotend assembly in particular.  I'm trying to see what parts I'm going to need to tweak to make an E3d-V6 work in there.  This doesn't mean there is a problem with the existing hotends.  It just means that in my small world of 3d printing, if it's not an E3d-V6 it generally just sucks.  I'd love to get ahead of this while I turn grey waiting for my Workbench to get here.

Thanks in advance,

Rick
