I have a stack of 4 of these I took out of my 6040 when I found they didn't move it all that well, but it turned out the psu was duff. Any way. my box of a 28 volt multi supply and 4 DM542's are running it just fine. As you know by now, I'm playing at makeing some harmonic drives which are

This may be a dumb question. Is it possible to use two glass plates so you can let the parts cool outside of the printer while printing the next part? On Sun, Aug 9, 2020, 10:42 AM Bruce Layne wrote: > > > On 8/9/20 10:19 AM, Gene Heskett wrote: > > The different support base came off the
