jstck - a bit harsh... Adrian Bowyer wrote much of the firmware, I expect he has a fair idea what's going on too... and I'm no slouch...

Really? 0.78 has been really solid for us. Can you give me some examples?
Also... [www.thingiverse.com]
[attachment 35821 IMG_0873.JPG]
Printed with 2 x 0.3mm nozzles, but quite a coarse 0.24mm layer height. We're going to do it again at 0.1mm layer height. The overhang was quite brutal!

1. Two Ormerod hot end kits, [reprappro.com]. I am assuming that you want to keep your existing single-nozzle hot end as a backup, and perhaps for single-nozzle mixing extruder experiments. In fact two hot end kits provide more than you need, you will have a heatsink and fan left over, but it is slightly cheaper than buying one hot end kit and the extra parts.
2. One Duet X4 expansion board, [www.think3dprint3d.com].
3. One Ormerod extruder kit. I haven't found this on the RepRapPro shop, but I expect Sally can give you a price.
4. One Ormerod hot end loom (unless you make it up yourself). I haven't found this on the RepRapPro shop either.
5. For the 2-nozzle heatsink block, there are a few possibilities. You can ask DaveK if he can quote you a price for a copy of the 2-nozzle heatsink block that he made for me, and use it with the modified nozzle mount I published here [github.com]. Or you can bolt two standard heatsink blocks together at the back of the hot end, with what were the nozzle mounting screws in one of them drilled out and tapped for the nozzles.
I'll post a photo when I have finished assembling it.

dc42 My expansion board arrived today. What is the best way to provide it with 12volt power? Will the ATX, supplied power supply, be sufficient to power a multi head machine? If not could you provide details of what you use. Thank you
Paul

The cable I use for carrying the 12V is the second thickest loudspeaker wire that Maplin sells. The Duet enclosure accepts both X4 and the Duet boards, back to back. Also there is the nozzle mount for the dual nozzles.
