  • If the printer is fully enclosed (door and lid closed) and the print is long enough. The heat from the hotend and bed can build up in the chamber, causing heat creep. The chamber temperature is not monitored. Since the nozzle and heatbreak are one piece, removing the clog is a bit more involved.

    I’ve had to do it 3 times since I bought the printer on release. All were 12+ hour PLA prints and done after high temperature filament prints (nylon and abs).

    The issue is entirely preventable, just me forgetting to open the door on long prints lol.







  • Haven’t fired it (with the 16 inch barrel) yet, but plan to get some range time soon. Everything but the butt printed in gst3d PLA+, the butt is some no-name brand TPU.

    Its a shame about gst3d no longer shipping filament, gonna make it difficult to color match if/when a part breaks.

    UZI barrels are about 1/4mm larger in diameter than “stock” barrel. You only need to modify the inter diameter of the screw collar and everything fits perfectly.
