This is what happens when one Z clamp comes loose on your printer mid-print.

This is what happens when one Z clamp comes loose on your printer mid-print. Sigh…

Oh dear. One of those weeks, huh.

Oh yes. As befits the final week of the Federal fiscal year.

Hurts just looking at it…

I’ve got a couple extra mk3 heated beds if you need one

i feel you dude that gappened to me except it was my fult that i didnt level properly. those gashes bring back bad memories

@Paul_Chase compatible with a PB Plus?

@Samer_Najia no, sorry… I thought the plus was a 200x200. I only have 8" and 12"x24" parts

@Paul_Chase I could make use of your 12x24 bed…can I pump 24 volts through it, or just 12?

Yeah, I’d like to see a pic of this 12x24 myself. I’m not aware of any such PCB heater sizes, but I know Silicone heaters can be in this size no problem.

Ouch! Took out your nozzle as well I suspect…

Actually, the nozzle seems to be ok…but I am waiting for @Griffin_Paquette ​’s nozzles to arrive and I will replace this u it then. Buh bye $75.

I’ve read about stepper motors demagnetising when stalled for too long. can anyone here confirm to what extent that is true ?

Hahahahaha…sure…i have a nifty pattern on the aluminum now!

@Samer_Najia 120 volts. I use two 12x12 silicone heaters hooked up to solid state relays, topped by a mix 6 build plate.

@Paul_Chase thanks. I’d be curios to see the lashup at some point.
