It's been a commedy of errors lately. We ran out of white ABS, and started on our 5# spool, only to find out the 5# spool was defective. Unfortunately, this defective plastic seems to have set us up for some other problems. The tension wheel broke lose again, looks like we had another defective extrusion motor (siezed), and looks like we may have blown out the extrusion controller. Dataman is up on the spare parts though, and we had spares for everything in stock. Meet Darth Roboto, my first post assembly printout, with a new .5 big head from MakerGear.Com. Prints much more smoothly than the MakerBot head.
First public appearance is at LVBots this Thursday. Wish me luck!
