With such a machine why not just print an actual usfull material like ABS/ASA that requires less part cooling. Honestly with how non functional PLA is and it requiring more part cooling im surprised im the only one who finds it to be the worst choice in filiments.
@@Mekanikalistik You might be right on the perception. Although PLA isnt cheap or better and i genuinlly dont understand the like for PLA. ABS flows better needs less cooling and PETG prints on anything just as clean but flows less. PLA has no use nor benifit. PETG even has less shrinkage and prints more dimentionally accurate.
@@Mekanikalistik It's a cooling test and PLA is bad for cooling. I don't think anything about PLA other than it's great for molds and making die's. I rarely use it, but it's great to test cooling. Do you have some content to share or what is it you would like to see?
@@MrRocksalt Hi mate, you are right! I was trying to explain why pla is very common among 3d print channels. I reckon there is no other better material choice to test your cooling system. But do you really need that kinda strong cooling for such a printer. On that point I do agree with @Nwalker But I also understand the need for your cooling system to handle the fastest melting speed for PLA. But I personally would not waste my time on such a trash material. I can print ABS for fast prototyping too and at end of the day it's all about cost. ABS cost less than PLA in my local market so I would prefer ABS for fast prototyping too. If I need super accurate plastic molds or templates I can always slow down or compensate for abs shrinking, no big deal.
That thing is violent!
While I understand this doesn't matter at all, I will say that I like the way this looks and sounds. Interesting duct.
I just got a Goliath and was going to use breakneck but I’ll give this a shot. Need to adapt it and make a fitting for cartographer
UFO is BACK!!!
What is offset between nozzle tip and bottom of duct?
Updated Thingiverse with pic, ~2.2mm. It can go higher a few mm, but try and keep it close to ~2mm

I typically do not use PLA. However, it's a material to use to test cooling ability.
People who use engineering materials in fdm usually do not post it online maybe that's why you think everybody is printing pla
