I installed a Meanwell power supply in the Ender 5 recently and, unlike the supplied power supply, has a temperature controlled fan which seems to...
That'll keep you busy until New Year. :-) I've ordered a direct drive kit from Printer Mods, so I hope I get the same quick delivery from the US.
Not sure if you've seen the latest video from Teaching Tech but it covers a quick change print head system from Printer Mods. It looked pretty...
I had both a 6040 and an X-Carve - before I had to downsize and move :-( The X-Carve has a much bigger work area, nearly 1 metre square so...
They're still quoting 3-6 working days from Tassie to Perth. Earliest mail would be Monday though.
If you're desperate for these, I have a stack in both 4mm and 5mm lengths. Happy to help out, tis the season and all.
Excellent results. Still undecided about a direct drive option for the Ender 5. Still sorting out the recently added E3D V6. Going to try some...

Gives new meaning to the word 'portable' :-) Got more details on your CNC?
Set up for printing PETG yesterday and it came out quite well. I did have to print on a raft (glass bed) Bed temp - 75°, hotend temp - 245°, eSun...
When I bought the Ender 5 about 18 months ago, I also got a spare hotend ($28!) which I've never needed. I might risk one printing some PETG for...
Over the last couple of years, I've acquired Titan, Bondtech and Bulldog extruders (all clones). All require a modified mounting plate to install...
I've was about to order a Microswiss hotend for my Ender 5 and noticed that they now have a direct drive extruder also. Has anyone installed one...
I also have a stack of 0.4mm nozzles so when one clogs, I just swap it. Cleaning burnt PLA from a nozzle is a pain! About to order a Swiss all...
