      ​@@3DPrintedDebrisThis video is an excellent overview. What it seems many are looking for is closer, more detailed filming of the work to fix the issue. My suggestion would be to film with no audio, do a voice over and maybe quiet backtrack that can go up in volume a bit during b-roll

    Been there done that ,the problem is if you have melted a component of the extruded housing, now you dont have a functional printer to print the new part, i had to actually order one from Prusa which took a while. Now I printed extra extruder components and keep them handy for the next meltdown. Larry

      I keep a full printer's worth of spares just in case, and then print the replacement with the repaired machine.

    I actually didn't realize you could disassemble the extruder without removing it from the rails. I had a blob like this a few months back. I had already printed out the parts for a Pit Stop upgrade, so it ended up being a lucky opportunity.

    • @3DPrintedDebris
      @3DPrintedDebris  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Yep, I think there are only 4 screws holding the entire extruder to the x carriage.

    I would love to see a video on your Ender 3's! Showing any mods you've done to make them print farm ready. Also comparing them against the Prusa's in terms of best value for money. You can buy Ender 3's with fast shipping for $200. It's a tough decision!

      Not even close, the Ender 3 beats the MK3S hands down. I have both, and I hate the Prusa. IMO the V6 hotend is literal hot garbage, I don't why filament sticks to it so much

    Prusa needs to get to a point where it is "Honda" fixable, not "Chrysler" fixable.

    • @nyc863

      I believe the latest prusa firmware has added a temp profile model that once calibrated should notice that the print head is getting increasingly insulated by the blob of doom.

      It's less common for me since switching to PEX plates from WhamBam.
