What files can you use for printing Ben?

I looked at the rostock a year or so ago, think it was all open source!

I see that the Cube I mentioned earlier, you need to go online to enable it! They got you by the balls then! For £1000 and they can dictate what features you get, only use their spools etc etc. No clear info on accepted file format. Sounds like epsom and DJI doesn't it!

See they are advertising another now, a Robox! Reading between the lines it looks like a prototype and the customer is the Guinea pig

yup although Im having issues, think its temp related I have done a vid but not sped it up yet and uploaded

re-printing my fan shroud for the 5th time now with higher temps to see if it sorts out issues with overhangs and delamintion!

You can see on the 45deg antenna tube holder the issues in this pic!

Can't help you with the issues your having but would be happy to design something as a test once it's up and running ok, I'm guessing your using .stl files...

with enuf bed and hotend heat you can print with some funky materials now it seems
