I received my new hotend yesterday, shipping was fast and your product looks amazing
I prep'ed it last night and today I installed it in my ord-bot printer for some testing
First I want to say that I have been using 1.75mm filament and when I saw your hotend
I couldnt resist, if it works as claimed it would eliminate the ptfe headaches we all know and hate
Not to mention I can now extrude polycarbonate which has a melting point of 260-300c depending
on how fast you want to print with it
So all seems well after a few test prints I even inserted a piece of 3.1mm OD x 2.4mm ID ptfe in it
and used it to extrude 1.75mm pla with no problems at all
This is a no brainer, end of all problems hotend and having the option to inset the ptfe for 1.75mm
abs and pla is a great option as well
It takes alot for me to brag about a product and this one for sure wins bragging rights.
I will be recommending this hotend to anyone looking for one, for either 3mm or 1.75mm filament
