Did you use the original Solidoodle thermsistor and heater or the new e3d ones when you set up your e3d?

Well, earlier today I got another kink going into the hot end with temps that had been working.  Then I noticed a black ooze coming out of the peek barrel.  So I think I probably had a partial clog that was just getting worse and worse.  I've decided as an early Christmas present to myself to get an e3d hot end.  Does anyone know if I can run it with the 150 watt supply from solidoodle?

The general consensus is no, the stock p/s ratings are a bit lacking...not saying it won't work but... here is a link to get you started ---> http://www.soliwiki.com/E3D_extruder

I'll ask what other colors they are going to come out with.

I know if I run over 30-35 mm/s My extruder starts skipping and goes click click...... and then the stringing spaghetti mess happens around the extruder gear area.

After slowing down I have been problem free ever since.


Good luck! Let me know how it works!

P.S. they have 3 colored versions of T-glase out on the Taulman website.

This stuff will not print fast. I stress again... Slow down!!!!!

Second, Check diameter of the filament. I had a bad roll and it was jamming in the barrel. A few larger spots in the spool.

If it keeps happening email Taulman. They have wonderful costumer support. Explain you problem, he may know something I don't. They are very helpful.

I hope I understood the question right.
