[edit] - If you are getting small cracking sounds as the filament feeds, it may indicate that the filament has worn its way through the extruder entrance. Look underneath the curved part of the extruder where the filament enters - you may see a crack where the filament has worn through. If so, print another extruder housing before it fails completely. There is a modified design that has a bigger feed channel to take a PTFE liner (3mm OD, 2mm ID). I've recently had to do the same as the filament wore through both the PTFE liner and the printed part.

- Screw holes are for a 2mm screw instead of a 3mm.

EDIT: the 9mm bearing cant fit, all the holes are simply too narrow

btw, printing outer perimeters first could help

The print came out perfectly. Ptfe tube went in 40mm as it should, bearings fit nicely... I am a happy guy now..

So as long as you are here, let me ask you just this, is this a good slic3r and cura start gcode?

Let me pick your brain a bit more than, is S3D worth it?

..The published STL for the Ormerod Z end cap..
Dave
Do you mean z-upper-mount - and published where?

Exactly the reason Im asking
Thanks guys, Ill stick to Slic3r and Cura. In my experience, if an stl does not turn out good with one, it (almost always) will with the other one. The biggest difference I noticed are thin walls, while Cura has no problems with them, Slic3r tends not to do them very well.

Yes, the Z upper mount, published in the official RepRap "Ormerod-master/stl/individual parts" directory of the online repository that I picked up ages ago when I first got my Ormerod. I've attached it here. S3D places about 3 solid membranes at various heights inside the rectangular hollow box section (which it does not show on its 3D view, they appear after slicing).
