Hi @Custom_Creations as promised, a few updates on the build coming up. As for your question yes I cut all the laser sections myself and made the printed parts on my Prusa i3.

@Custom_Creations I would not advise hand or tool cutting acrylic, it is so messy, easy to crack and not to mention hard work!

What type of electrical connection is that. I like the compact size. Source?

@Simon_Day thanks.

@Eclsnowman n not a problem. I really like these, they make it so easy to swop out hotends to change nozzle diameters.

@Simon_Day what’s the current capacity? I couldn’t find it in the tech sheet looking on my phone?
