Thank you
Greatly appreciated!
extruder parts
Given that swiss knows a lot more about this than me, I'm going to trust him if he says you need to print some updated parts. I certainly had to as part of the upgrade from the MK3S to the +. That was a more involved upgrade than the MMU!
I can't say what earlier MK3S innards looked like(I got one in Nov 2020), but they definitely do release modded parts and if there are upgraded parts it seems like a good idea to print them and upgrade your printer.
About 40 min left on this print but so far so good.
Thanks
Ok Thanks for you great help. I purchased an MK3 in April 2020, had no issues whatsoever printing, just when starting to use this TPU.
I will have a look wat upgrades are available and how to deal with it. As mentioned, I am rather happy with it, don't want to mess it up just because of a bit of TPU issues whilst everything else works fine.
I get it
It's kind of why I'm not messing with mine after I got the MMU working. But it's of course it' up to you. The MK3S -> MK3S+ was a pretty big upgrade as far as having to print the parts ahead of time. I personally think it probably reduces the mount of places tpu could fail inside the extruder.
Thankfully I have two printers so I can do upgrades on one and still have the other JUST IN CASE 🙂 I can understand not wanting to take apart your one working printer 🙂
Good luck!
