Topic: Extruder MK4

First of all, I want to thanks Lawsy for his good work.

When I received my printer, I was happy of the result gotten, then I has reticence to change for the MK4 extruder.

Yesterday, I made the change and that was the day and the night. Now my printer works better.

However, 4 times my nozzle unclipped from the MK4 body. Therefore, this morning I made a part to block the nozzle.

If someone has the same problem, I put the STL file on Thingiverse : http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:207013

Thanks Lawsy

Antoine

Re: Extruder MK4

Thanks Antoine for the kind words, and the contribution with the part.

Are you aware that the mk5 exists and that it has a swinging locking arm to hold the hot end in place?

Re: Extruder MK4

Oups XD no I didn't watch for the MK5.

Your locking arm is better than mine.

Yesterday I just took MK4 parts, I have printed 2 month ago.

Thanks

Antoine
