Since August 2017 I have jumped into the world of 3D printing. Started with a Monoprice Maker Select Plus ready to go.<\/p>\n
Well, it was a while before I could get good at it. Many iterations later, I replaced the hotend with all stainless steel so that I could print PLA with Carbon Fiber. When done, I had replaced almost everything but the frame and stepper motors. Prints much better now.<\/p>\n
I had not written about this as I had nothing I could share that others had not done far better. Now I will start sharing my experiences and create links to all the people who have provided me with the most useful and entertaining information.<\/p>\n\n\n
