and it works brilliantly. I had to change the extrusion rate to 110% because the extrusion drive rollers are smaller diameter than standard, but once I did that then the result was excellent quality prints with both PLA and PETG

Hi, I bought the aluminium extruder on Amazon
and it works brilliantly. I had to change the extrusion rate to 110% because the extrusion drive rollers are smaller diameter than standard, but once I did that then the result was excellent quality prints with both PLA and PETG

Re: The 3D Printer Thread
Gotcha I am printing well but printing wicked is the aim isn't it.
I went from the normal tube to the Capricorn and I believe I saw an improvement but who knows.I had to give it a little more retraction but to me that just told me it did work.
Cheers and THX man.
