What would be a good upgrade for my hot end? This is the printer I have. [makemendel.com] This hot end has issues, It doesnt hold temp when printing fast and It jams often. I'm looking for something I can have at my house and ready to print in under a week if possible. I've looked at the hot ends from china on ebay and they are a good price but I cant wait a month for shipping. 1.75mm filament prefered.

I can go higher speeds on lower prints but if I go higher on larger prints I end up with a hot end cooling down during printing causing problems.

The resistor in the hot end is 3w, its only 4.5mm, all of the resistors I have found that are possible upgrades are 5.5mm so cant find an upgrade that will fit. I just want to get a hot end to replace this shoddy thing.]]> hendo420 General Tue, 19 Mar 2013 11:09:32 -0400 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?1,193046,193048#msg-193048 Re: What would be a good upgrade for my hot end? https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?1,193046,193048#msg-193048 ABS or PLA?
