Topic: SD4 with 2 extruders?!?
So I received my SD4 finally. Opened it up and it has 2 extruders in it. Um... What? It is definitely the smaller platform SD so I am wondering if I got a WB Apprentice installed in a SD4 box.

Re: SD4 with 2 extruders?!?
Lol that's kind of how I look at it. A bonus for having to wait so long.
It is missing it's glass bed though. It only has a bare metal. I put some Kapton on it for now but will be getting a glass top for it.
I am pretty sure that is exactly what it is. Only drawback over it and the SD4 is the 4 has a 8" print bed.

Yeah it did not like the link. I edited and just uploaded the pics.

So that's quite the frankendoodlde. The WBA does not have an enclosure if I recall... Not exactly sure what they were smoking when they put your package together...

Re: SD4 with 2 extruders?!?
Yup. SD4 with dual extruders.
Can you show the board? Unless they added an extra driver, one of those extruders are a dud.
You may have made out like a bandit if everything looks good

Re: SD4 with 2 extruders?!?
Plus that's an SD4 door, so they used an SD4 frame. You can easily add an 8" build platform if you buy one from SD.

Re: SD4 with 2 extruders?!?
Looks like you have 2 functioning extruders so you are golden on that front, but the bed dimension jagowilson touched on is concerning. Is it 8x8 or 6x6?

Re: SD4 with 2 extruders?!?
You may have to reflash the firmware for the Workbench and then alter the bed size...
Edit: Never mind, I thought the WBA had an 8 x 8...

Re: SD4 with 2 extruders?!?
It is a 6x6. For all purpose it basically appears I got a WBA in a SD4 box.

The only thing you didn't get lucky on is there being an auto leveling system. I prefer the good old fashioned z stop screw.

Now, it would be great if he could adjust the nozzles independently!!

Re: SD4 with 2 extruders?!?
So I've got my frankindoodle printing its first item. It is just some random skull I found on thingiverse. After I am sure it is all working right I will have to look at the 2 extruder printing.

Re: SD4 with 2 extruders?!?
Sadly I had lifting problems. I got it to print up about 1/4" before it completely lifted off the plate. I need to get some acetone to make some juice or some hairspray. I will do that on my way home from work today.
The portion that did print was pretty smooth even at a 3mm setting and the layering looked good though.

Re: SD4 with 2 extruders?!?
Roger that. I will give it a try. Thanks. So with the glass method, what temperature is best to run my bed? I was gradually bumping it up up up trying to get it to not lift. But with the glass and an adhesive I would assume I can run it cooler. For the record I got my best print on some roughed up kapton (sanded with 220 grit) and my bed temp at 105.
