Ultimate Nozzle Wiper V2 for Bambu Lab X1C P1S P1P

Ultimate Nozzle Wiper V2

Ultimate Nozzle Wiper V2 – with new cutting jig included! I’ve created a simple and inexpensive solution to get a perfectly clean nozzle for your Bambu Lab X1C, P1S or P1P printer. It was also remixed and adopted for the Prusa XL printers by others. I have used the ultimate nozzle wiper v1 from the beginning in my print farm, with perfect results when printing a lot of sticky PETG, and now I have improved it further because most of […]

Properly hydrate Nylon/PA-CF parts

In some cases you have to hydrate your Nylon PA-CF 3D printed parts or they will be too brittle and break upon assembly. Big companies like Molex are doing the same with their nylon electronic connector parts. They moisturize them to avoid breakage. Also since it is inevitable that the nylon part will absorb moisture over time and that changes in dimensions and physical properties will occur, it is frequently desirable to actively moisturize them so that these changes occur […]

My recipe for 3D printing with eSUN PA-CF

I am by no means an expert in printing with nylon filaments but I gathered as much information as possible from various forums, facebook groups, instagram etc. where people posted photos of amazing high quality prints with carbon nylon filament. To tell you right away: you have to dry your nylon filament first, no matter if it’s fresh out of a vaccum bag – it’s just a waste of time and material. Of course I didn’t believe it myself until […]

E3D Nozzle-X temperature difference

I just swapped my original E3D brass nozzle on my Prusa MK3 with a E3D Nozzle-X 0.4mm to be able to print abrasive filament. And yes it’s a pain in the ass changing Nozzle’s on that E3D V6 Hot End but with this Z-Catch Nozzle removal tool it was surprisingly easy. Since the Nozzle-X is hardened steel everyone said I have to increase the temperature by 5°C – 15°C because of the different thermal conductivity. I wanted to know how […]
