Yes, mine has been running for about 4 months now. I have printed new (and better) X-ends and installed a E3D Lite6 extruder on it. I now have X-belt tension adjust and an adjustable z-axis stop. It is working well.by akm3726 - Prusa i3 and variants
Is there anyone out there who bought this kit and got a set of English instructions with it? I built mine from assorted web sites, with a good deal of guess work and some innovation. It works fine, but it would sure be interesting to see how it was supposed to be built!by akm3726 - Prusa i3 and variants
The comment about welding almost certainly refers to soldering. There is some soldering involved. There was no welding needed.by akm3726 - Prusa i3 and variants
I've been having similar problems. Make sure you are using PID drive (not On/Off) and set the maximum drive level much lower in your configuration. If the system sends a low enough duty cycle drive power, the resistor should not overheat while waiting for the thermistor to respond. Good luck!by akm3726 - Tantillus
