I have not run one for more than a few hours yet, but I expect it to last well<br /><br />Bare nichrome and Cerastil works very well and can be made very compact, but Cerastil is not economic in small quantities and it takes 48 hours to cure two layers. It seems to last indefinitely. I have not had a failure.<br /><br />The method Zach uses, with insulated nichrome held in place with Kapton tape looks very easy. He reports it lasts but I haven't tried it. Insulated nichrome is not easy to obtain over here.nopheadhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12801535866788103677noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4339813531032979196.post-48867920839491165562009-07-09T23:59:11.865+01:002009-07-09T23:59:11.865+01:00figure I might as well ask here rather than an old...figure I might as well ask here rather than an older post: do you recommend using the resistor heater over a nichrome wire approach?Evan Clintonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05744141127901057725noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4339813531032979196.post-79556398818429729092009-07-08T19:10:31.228+01:002009-07-08T19:10:31.228+01:00I just hope this post famine ends soon with the po...I just hope this post famine ends soon with the post about printing your own perpetual motion machine..Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4339813531032979196.post-81208188032835969102009-07-02T20:49:04.784+01:002009-07-02T20:49:04.784+01:00Hi Enleth,

Mounted some of the components yesterday and verified that the USB part works. I will be adding the rest and testing the stepper this weekend. Then on to machining the extruder hardware.Just another technical bloggerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04316152781051161770noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4339813531032979196.post-68345588132622494422009-06-26T21:52:18.435+01:002009-06-26T21:52:18.435+01:00cor, it's annoying when real life gets in the ...cor, it's annoying when real life gets in the way of reprapping and blogging...<br />:-)<br />Welcome backAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10046079586632841601noreply@blogger.com
