Nozzles and pursa. Hello, I am atm doubting with Pursa I2 and I3, wich i should buy, The shop in my neighbourhood has the I2, and will have the I3 but he isnt sure yet about it. So should i go with a I2 or is a I3 realy better? Also my question is, what is better 0.35 or 0.5 as a nozzle diameter ? Imo i rather have a precision then a fast product, so i think 0.35? I heard 0.5 is normaly stronger ? thanks guys! https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?4,217832,217832#msg-217832 Fri, 10 Jul 2026 16:50:53 -0400 Phorum 5.2.23 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?4,217832,219338#msg-219338 Re: Nozzles and pursa. https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?4,217832,219338#msg-219338

Or i would have to use my hands as bracket XD]]> luigi Reprappers Tue, 18 Jun 2013 06:10:06 -0400 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?4,217832,219203#msg-219203 Re: Nozzles and pursa. https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?4,217832,219203#msg-219203 -------------------------------------------------------

ok i dont understand what your asking is it you want to print in abs first then pla or you want your parts made from abs?

if your deciding to print with abs, i would print with pla first as i am going to do before considering abs, and fans aint hard to come by i salvaged a couple from old bits and bats]]> chris33 Reprappers Mon, 17 Jun 2013 17:00:23 -0400 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?4,217832,219074#msg-219074 Re: Nozzles and pursa. https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?4,217832,219074#msg-219074 isonoob Reprappers Mon, 17 Jun 2013 12:27:15 -0400 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?4,217832,219069#msg-219069 Re: Nozzles and pursa. https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?4,217832,219069#msg-219069 luigi Reprappers Mon, 17 Jun 2013 12:07:11 -0400 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?4,217832,218944#msg-218944 Re: Nozzles and pursa. https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?4,217832,218944#msg-218944

I also dont think I2 is a great option, I am thinking more atm about the Mendel90 or Purse I3 (Probably MakerFarm.com )]]> luigi Reprappers Fri, 14 Jun 2013 14:42:36 -0400 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?4,217832,218333#msg-218333 Re: Nozzles and pursa. https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?4,217832,218333#msg-218333 isonoob Reprappers Fri, 14 Jun 2013 14:15:08 -0400 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?4,217832,218321#msg-218321 Re: Nozzles and pursa. https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?4,217832,218321#msg-218321 The makerfarm is aprox 450 euro, with shipping 500 euro aprox

The other one from england is 580 euro, with shipping probably 620-640 and then with taxes probably around 700 euro,

Well tho makerfarm still needs a PSU and glass and fillement,
But someone named Charlies 3D technologies is in Belgium, and has cheap shipping, so i probably will buy those things from him
Its due his printer is still the I2, doesnt has the rods, PSU, glass, fillement, thats why i lean more to the makerfarm side, even tho its america and i am afraid how the taxxes will turn out.

So long story short, I think the makerfarm is probably the best choice no?

Well the mendel seems also great, But more money, and you get a little less then Makerfarm (the LCD and SD reader)
thanks for the help guys ^^]]> luigi Reprappers Fri, 14 Jun 2013 13:29:12 -0400 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?4,217832,218314#msg-218314 Re: Nozzles and pursa. https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?4,217832,218314#msg-218314 isonoob Reprappers Fri, 14 Jun 2013 12:58:36 -0400 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?4,217832,218299#msg-218299 Re: Nozzles and pursa. https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?4,217832,218299#msg-218299
Well i still aint realy sure to be honest :/
Its also he is asking 580 euro + VAT 20% So its already like 700 euro easly :/

Meh, Doubts..]]> luigi Reprappers Fri, 14 Jun 2013 11:50:15 -0400 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?4,217832,218295#msg-218295 Re: Nozzles and pursa. https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?4,217832,218295#msg-218295
You'll be happy with whatever you purchase, ultimately it's up to you. I have little experience with i2 and mendel90 from work, and have only built a MendelMax 1.5 myself, so no experience with the i3 version.]]> isonoob Reprappers Fri, 14 Jun 2013 11:30:27 -0400 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?4,217832,218288#msg-218288 Re: Nozzles and pursa. https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?4,217832,218288#msg-218288
It has been made alot more simple i think, (To build)
I2 might be a lill complicater, But i wont buy I2,

I also think I3 also will need less calibirating.


And well a few cents, they give a free screen and SD reader when i dont see alot others do that, and still that low price.]]> luigi Reprappers Fri, 14 Jun 2013 11:14:28 -0400 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?4,217832,218286#msg-218286 Re: Nozzles and pursa. https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?4,217832,218286#msg-218286


that is a first print from someone in the Mendel90 subforum, which is pretty good in my opinion, and from what I've read Nophead provides very clear instructions with the kit.

If I were to do it all over again, I would most likely get the Mendel90, but wouldn't be upset with a MendelMax 1.5. Prusa Mendel seems a lot more complicated, and for a little bit of extra cost, I think the ease of the build is worth it for either the MendelMax or Mendel90

I think rather to buy from MakerFarm a I3 8 inches model,

Its 580 dollars, so about 430 euros, and 70 dollars about 50 euro, so i could get a I3 for 500e,
When the mendelmax is 580 euro.

I will have to think about it tho, But ye, I kinda like Makerfarms due its so complete,
And since it has a screen included standard with a holder for it.


If you think the mendel is alot better please tell me, since 80 euro isnt that much of course.]]> luigi Reprappers Fri, 14 Jun 2013 10:40:10 -0400 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?4,217832,218254#msg-218254 Re: Nozzles and pursa. https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?4,217832,218254#msg-218254
I started printing with a .5mm nozzle, which wasn't bad to start with; in my opinion I feel like starting out with .5mm is a good way to jump in, I just feel like it's easier to get first layers to stick with it. Later down the road you can swap to a .35mm nozzle easily and start playing around to get it working with the knowledge and know-how from troubleshooting the .5mm nozzle.]]> isonoob Reprappers Fri, 14 Jun 2013 09:22:50 -0400 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?4,217832,218213#msg-218213 Re: Nozzles and pursa. https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?4,217832,218213#msg-218213 chris33 Reprappers Fri, 14 Jun 2013 07:04:15 -0400 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?4,217832,218205#msg-218205 Re: Nozzles and pursa. https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?4,217832,218205#msg-218205
You can also remove the hot end by unscrewing three screws and loosening four terminals.]]> nophead Reprappers Fri, 14 Jun 2013 06:18:08 -0400 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?4,217832,218129#msg-218129 Re: Nozzles and pursa. https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?4,217832,218129#msg-218129 -------------------------------------------------------

Well how much does it cost and do you know any shop due i cant find any!

I think maybe to get a makerfarm Pursa I3.

But ye Mendel 90 seems also alright]]> luigi Reprappers Fri, 14 Jun 2013 00:05:44 -0400 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?4,217832,218039#msg-218039 Re: Nozzles and pursa. https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?4,217832,218039#msg-218039 chris33 Reprappers Thu, 13 Jun 2013 14:40:45 -0400 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?4,217832,217999#msg-217999 Re: Nozzles and pursa. https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?4,217832,217999#msg-217999
If you want you could even drill em, and get your cabels through em,
An i bet they are more stable/straight.

Anyhow

Is it able to have like 2 extruders nozzles that you can switch?
Else i might buy now a 0.35 for being fine,
And if i ever need a 0.5 for more strong stuff, i can.

If you cant, i will still keep the 0.35
Imo quality is above productivity ^^ atleast when you arent a businiss or anything.

Btw is there a big diffrence between I2 and I3 when talking about Product quality/printing
I do think the I3 probably needs alot less caliberation tho.

Thanks for the advice!.
Greats,
Simon.]]> luigi Reprappers Thu, 13 Jun 2013 11:19:45 -0400 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?4,217832,217833#msg-217833 Re: Nozzles and pursa. https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?4,217832,217833#msg-217833 chris33 Reprappers Wed, 12 Jun 2013 18:14:36 -0400 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?4,217832,217832#msg-217832 Nozzles and pursa. https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?4,217832,217832#msg-217832
