Re: What's the difference between the wades extruders? - 9 years ago

Andrew, I look forward to seeing your timeline; I feel like it will help clear up some of the confusion when selecting an extruder model. The main reason I am asking this is because I have been dealing with a "wobble" on my x cby MrBret - General
What's the difference between the wades extruders? - 9 years ago

Extruder Fan settings - 9 years ago

Thanks for any help you can give.by MrBret - General
