Think I'll use this screw and rod for my Z-axis.

Think I’ll use this screw and rod for my Z-axis. 180mm an overkill?

you may wanna upgrade to a larger nozzle, while you’re at it.

Lukas_Merz · May 30, 2014, 2:24pm

@Mike_Miller uh, thats gonna be complicated, since you wont get filament larger than 3mm… ^^

Mike_Miller · May 30, 2014, 2:26pm

well, 3mm’s a start, perhaps we can get it to coil up in the hot zone?

Carlton_Dodd · May 30, 2014, 2:29pm

LOL
You’d need 220v mains direct to power that hot zone!

Brandon_Satterfield · May 30, 2014, 2:41pm

LMAO!

So…you will be printing in concrete or wood pulp with binder agent?

Overkill is underrated.

You can probably get by with just using those bolts holding the rod to the coupler as a z rod

Camerin_hahn · May 30, 2014, 7:48pm

@James_Armstrong you can get by with rice and beans, but every once in a while i want steak.

Don’t forget to reinforce your floor, building table and the rest of the building…
