Discov3ry Paste Extruder
So a hacklab member (me, User:Tdmckee) supported the Discov3ry Paste Extruder on Kickstarter (#304!), and just recently received it. Its currently in the lab, attached to the Makerbot. Here's a [tweet with a picture.]
Problems
- Currently experiencing a MINTEMP error.
Attempted to insert M302 (enable cold extrusion) into the start gcode in CURA. didn't work. Asked the [structur3d.io forum], received [this reply]... I don't have sufficient clue to talk gcode directly to the printer at this stage of my 3dp learnings so I'm deferring to someone more expert in these sorts of things things...
- [here's another forum post] with some other settings to try...
Stuff to extrude
Apparently structur3d have a list with some settings to try (though hopefully somewhere more organized than that forum, which seems a little free-for-all unstructured)
My list:
- Silicone Caulk
- Wood Filler
- Various edible things
- ... other? Happy to field suggestions...
