Quote3dkarma If you're interested, I've modified the Wade's to take an E3D v6 and support flexible filament. The trick is to get a bowden tube (for 1.75mm filament) from up near the hobbed bolt all the way down through the E3D V6. You can download the build manual and STL files from . Thank you. Wish I had known about you before I ordered mine lol. With out a doubt, the best instructions and iby krwynn - Reprappers

I just read this on reddit in a discussion over heat beds: "running an SSR like this in PID can also contribute to thermal runaway so be sure to switch your heated bed to bang bang control and check the frequency of the temp checks." "As someone mentioned here, you'd want to set your bed PID to bang bang mode otherwise you'll melt the SSR. Also disable PWM. For safety, I'm putting a 10A fuse inby krwynn - Reprappers

Pics would be a bonus. Or website with a tutorial, video...something. I have the E3DV6 sitting on my kitchen table, and it's KILLING me to not be able to install it yet. Same here.

This is the one I have: and there is a Wiki which shows a slightly different one: On mine, both earth wires are joined for 12v. The one on the Wiki has the +12v joined together. Because the circuit is bonded or printed onto a solid aluminium base the temp should bby krwynn - Reprappers
