Long story short I melted my peek isolater.
I also melted some PTFE components.
Why is it made of peek? Can one be made from aluminum and machined?
Why are any of these parts made of meltable materials on the hot end?
What do you guys think about plaster of paris/cement mixture? Maybe mixed with some crushed perilite. THis is a high heat resistant material that I used to make a foundry to melt aluminum it. It would be light weight and easy to reproduce as well as virtually disposable and very cheap.
With the plaster I could cast the threads right in, then unscrew the hotend and bake to set! Or bake with it inside.
It would, however, be brittle, thus the cement to give it more rigidity.
What about rockwool?
Any thoughts?
