Looks great and he seems happy at being up there with Mr Easter ;)

Maxify range are very solid, large tanks and easy to refill, will take ARC chips too. Larger then your current machine I think but had one now for 4 years and it has been a real reliable printer.

Happy second Birthday MK5 - the creator should have some 🎂 to celebrate!

Put it in a dryer, I think you have one and let it be until your energy level for it returns then go for it. Its a nice thing to be able to print TPU and I bet some of your projects could include parts that need seals or rubber wheels etc. ;)

Hmmm.. My guess is moisture in the filament 🤔 This may be a different model but the extruder looks the same and some tips in it for TPU printing... Here are the Cura settings for various filaments from the Kingroon site if it helps. It has settings for TPU and PETG...

Pretty sad really as it was a mine of information for photographers, especailly in the Forums. I guess Mr Bezos was not making enough from the Afilliate links to top up his Billionaire lifestyle :idunno

Those printers have earned their keep again - looks great :thumbsup

Handy material for soem applications but as for his example of the cellphone holder that kept breaking I think a better design would help and lets face it, most commercial holders are made from ABS and are strong. Also you need to take into consideration the cost of TPU filament compared to...

Sometimes things are hard to identify, even for experts so they create aide memoires for them :)

There is a simple mod for some of the Creality extruders that basically puts a V shape at the end of the Bowden tube nearest the extruder gear. It helps to stop the TPU being twisted and jamming up the extruder.

@Nifty That Gridfinity system is pretty cool, I can see some of those bits will make for a tidy up but also make stuff more visible instead of having to search for it in boxes :)

You can buy cheap drawer sets for ocmponents but if you are a bit OCD and want to have spefific sizes and units that can be configured in may different ways then these seem a great printable solution... https://www.printables.com/model/230356-modular-shelving-system-hobby-workshop-small-parts

Crikey - didn't realise the 5120 was that old!

Everything can be "fixed" with a hammer :lol: Also a good anger management tool for this guy :)

@The Hat Great trick, must try and remember that. Just another example of accidental discoveries that benefit us all. Was it one of your ancestors who accidentally burnt the hops in that Dublin brewery and gave us the unique brew? :lol:

Sadly, my MP600 has gone to the printer farm in the sky :(

How do we even know that all the people posting in here are human, many could be bots :)

You don't need it is the simple answer :)

If that kit fits the CR10 it would be worth a try On the EU site it includes the Hotend for €40. Maybe ask them if it also fits the CR10 before deciding to buy? If you do go to DD extruder you will need to tweak your slicer settings, for instance the retraction distance is a lot less...

From what I have read adding a direct drive to the CR10 increases the weight on the X rail which is not a great idea as it may affect print quality. Its always good to go for the lightest extruder/hotend set up. If you had an Ender 3 then that kit I linked above would be a bargain.
