Topic: Severed Extruder Heatwires

Accidentally tore off the heatwires with the brush.
Tried resoldering but the wires are too deep in the head to grab on to.

What do you guys think?

Drill, buy a new head from DaVinci or buy a third party head?

If memory serves that's a 6mm heater cartridge.

You might be brushing a little too aggressively if you are breaking those wires. You should use the brush only when the head is hot, but not while power is applied to the heater.

I've purchased these:

Ridiculously cheap. Much to my surprise, this actually worked.
Looked at some threads around here and these reprap heat cartridges saved my printer.

Let's get crackin' again.
